Another ride report for your viewing pleasure.

Just another awesome day on the X440s.

Suspension: No longer "starting" to work sweet, it is sweet. The Ohlins just get it done!

Motor: Can you beleive....I didn't stall it today!
The power is still keeping me honest, I launched it off the track today.

Handling: Same as always, I can pick any line I want and make it stick. I'm still on the stock Pirelli's.

Brakes: One finger can lock the front. Rear is very usable.

The other guys on the track: Dumbfounded, they can't beleive that the 'Dale.....
1. Is still starting
2. Is still running
3. Has had 0 failures or breakage
4. Gets past them

Maybe I'll do it again tomorrow. We all want to know about reliability right?

Good thing I get on the track for free.

Keep em comin !

Yeah but stall it 1/2 through the moto next to a YZ and see who gets moving first.....go ahead and stall it! Rub it in.
Might be kind of scary when the suspension finally settles down and you can tweak it for your prefs.....real scary....like...."it gets better?"

My dealer down the street said the Es will be up here end of Jan or first of feb.....
So....I have to get in that test drive of one....
and in the process of selling my two rides.....then I am clean to get?
who knows.....
but it would be sweet to show up on an Exotics or Thumper talk ride somewhere and have a 440 E with a licence plate on it...eh?
now that would break my heart.....

Hello gtm and all other Dale owners. I currently own a Rm250 That is hopefully getting sold today! I have always enjoyed this bike but am ready to jump to the four stroke revolution. Like all others that have posted before me not 100% which bike to buy but really like the sounds of the Dales. I have enjoyed the posts that all of you have been posting especially this one where you are taking the time to let the rest of us know how the bike is holding up and performing! When you start to get into the money it takes these days to buy a quality bike it is nice to know if it is worth it. I am leaning toward the C440 I like the fact it holds a little more gas and has the other goodies that the X440s does not come with but it is also more money. Any way do not want to be to long winded hopefully will be a Dale owner soon and will start posting more often thanks guys. T/A
