you could do a supermotard crf450f conversion or something, that would be badass..

First pic. Husqvarna supermoto.Gone now. Fun bike to ride to work. No dirt tires for it and I wanted to trail ride so it had to go.

Just picked up the Yamaha in the second picture. Full ***** and street legal. :YEAH I will convert it to supermoto later this year. No cash right now.

With all that said, the XR is kind of a heavy slug. Does its intended job well though. There is a local guy to me that is riding one done up for supermoto. Looks good and goes ok too.

KTM's are good. Expensive,but some are ready roll supermoto style if you want that. One of thier models comes from the factory with dirt tires and street tires.

Another option is Yamaha WR450,426,400. Should be able to street title it. Check with your state first,of course. I bought my bike used and the previous owner took care of that. All I need to be "legal" is a high and lowbeam,tail and brakelight(hooked to the rear brake pedal) and a mirror on the left side.

3rd option is the Suzuki DRZ line.

That should give you a good start. Maybe explain what you might do with it other than ride to work. If that is all your going to do,dump the cash into a little older sportbike. Trust me on this. You can get a decent sportbike for the money you will spend on most d/s bikes. A d/s just can't run WFO and keep up with traffic for long. When I ride my bike to work I end up leaving 15-20 minutes early so I don't have to go the freeway route. Puts me through some twisties so it isn't all bad.

what do you have to do for a super moto mod?

that Husqvarna supermoto looks beastly!

NickIF

CRF450F and convert it! Watch the vid of darius on his and you'll be hooked

2000 Yz 426
Street legal, clean on-road title
17" white bro rims
talon hubs
Electrux street legal kit
heavy duty stator
comes with:
dirt rims and knobbies
quiet wr exhaust


You can make a lot of dirtbikes street legal

crazeinc

Also, KTM Duke 2 and LC4 are sweet supermotos.

bikefrk

Slap 17" rims on it front and rear, sticky sportbike rubber, big brake on the front, revalve and lower the suspension if you want to. I won't lower the suspension. I like the full travel when slamming the city streets. Makes curbs and railroad crossings a lot more fun.

Whipit, is that you posting the pics of that Yamaha? :YEAH

reynolds_brad

Damm I miss my old roommates LC4 supermoto. that bike had to be the funnest thumper ive ever ridden. I so wish i could put a LC4 motor in my 440EXC frame.

yzfrone

are you selling this?

Luke

Go with the DRZ!!!!

Xidium

Buy a kx500 and street legalize that. But then you cant go to gas stations and get pump gas, unless bring your own premix. Kawasaki has some models like that,
2002 KLR650

or 2002 KLR250

or 2002 Super Sherpa

Or yamaha 2002 XT225

Or 2004 TW2002

The Kawasakis were 2002 cause I can link you to the site, and the yamahas are under dualsport.

oh my god! gimme a f*cking break you looser! first of all, you can't even ride a fiddy off road much less a 650! and 2nd, just the other week i told you i was looking for a dirtbike and what was the first thing you said? "why?" looks like you've finally come around... but it'll be a sick bike if ya get one, i'm still looking too, not sure what i'll get yet. but don't even think of getting a 2 stroke, blah. and my fiddy should be back together by sunday i hope.

you are just retarded, im not looking for a dirt bike, im looking for a street modded one like the yamaha above.

like i said buddy, learn how to ride then speak.

potential

you jerkoff just cause you ride it on the street doesn't mean its not a dirtbike anymore...

Xidium

All those bikes I put up are street legal out the box. That KLR650 has a 6 gallon tank.

bikefrk

But they are all turds if you want to supermoto them and have any credibility on the street.

Iwas out on my WR400 tonight. What a friggin riot. It is geared way down (-1 in the front) and wheelies in fifth gear with a little bounce while standing up. Lean back,cover the rear brake and ride that sucker till your arms hurt. :YEAH If you tried that on those D/S up there it just won't happen.
