Spending some money

Post by jasonmcc »

Hi

Well I got a 1991 softtop sierra thats pretty standard apart from a 2" body lift and a set of 31" muddies. I am looking at selling my 2002 model KTM400EXC dirtbike and spending some/all of the money on the suzi.

So if you had about 6 grand what would you spend it on:

Im thinkin approx:

Series 3 Rockhopper $1500
OME rears x4 and everything else to make em work $1500
Front bar and winch ??
Bigger tyres ??
A bit of protective bar work ??

I just wish we had some harder tracks and some competitions here up in Darwin.

Thanks

Jason

P.S Anyone want to buy my bike?

So if you don't have tough trails what sort of stuff will you driving?
From what I here you have a huge rock in the middle of your state, I reckon you hit that up.

Sorry I am very bored

A setup I got to see working pretty well on the weekend was a SWB zook with hilux rears all round 3/4 in the back (The setup I wanted to run when I was going to rebuild my tin top). Perhaps a cheaper otion to buying brand new springs.
