go to the forums on www.moto-xtreme-online.com they ahve a lot more knowledge on these bikes than anyone on here will......i think anyways.......but the 3rd gear thing wont be fixed b4 this weekend i dont think....o, and for a grand, that thing is either ebat to crap or hot as hell

I have to quote jester220 on this one:
"Ride Red or ride money pit"

you need to sell that sdg and get a xr50 like mine cuz that thing has no low end. found that out last night when i whooped ya

Ok let's not go touting honda.   We all know that an XR worth riding has almost NO xr parts left on it.  Maybe a crankcase and thats it!  Nobody here riding red, is riding good.  A stock xr has a weight limit of 88lbs.  That being said, i'm not a big fan of sdg.  But for a grand(with papers) I would buy it!  Even if just to sell it.  The website mentioned is DEFITITLY where to go.
