My XR70 Report....

Some one asked about if a XR70 is a good bike to F around on...

well, i rode one all day for the first time...i didnt like it....pretty hard to get it up in 2nd unless u do the false N trick (3rd gear will never happen...unlike the 50)....i would never buy one..but this one has blown ring(s) and was a smoke cloud all fuggin day(look at the smoke in the pic...LOL)...even leaked oil from the plug...POS
only good thing about it was after riding 50 miles...my body was not as sore...(keep in mind im older)
