Like Curly used to say... "ohhh, a wise guy eay"... You rotten sucker Smitty - someday when you least expect it, brrrrraaappp, roost all over that smilin face :)

 

[RiDeReDmX228]

hey have any of you michigan guys ever been down to iron river for a race ???

 

[fender92883]

So are you gonna' make us all guess?

 

[TwistNShout]

How's that commercial go? OPEN, OPEN, OPEN!

 

[Fred T]

OK, I'm gonna bite.

It's not a standard bike crate, but one from a shipping co type deal so I'll bet you had your dad get you a KTM 200 some how through his dealership.

2nd guess would have been a Honda CRFX 250.

 

[Don Marsh]

You finally got the Rokon you have been talking about?

 

[Smit-Dog]

Here we are celebrating the new bike...

Hmmmm, my money is on a CRF250X.... Smitty just loves to be different! :ohmy:

 

[Mrobbins]

Green on the cake KX250f in the crate?

 

[Tom Dixon]

I'm going to second the KXF250.

My dad actually advised me against getting this bike. Me, the rebel son and all... :debil:

I did spend a lot of time last weekend eyeballing and sitting on a new CRF250X, making "thump...thump...thump" sounds. It's sure a purty bike, and definitely all of it's 258lbs wet. Maybe one year, but not in '04. :aj:

This, coming from a guy who rides a bug-eyed 3-stroke? :moon:

 

[woodsy]

I had a dream last night that Smitdog was riding past a HUGE group of you east siders on a YZF 250.. Come on BIll - its killing us out here - your worst then a 5 year old with a new peddly bike....
Actually, I think I would wait and disclose it at the Snow - Chicken or at Gladwin - I was 5 once too :)

 

[fender92883]

DON'T GIVE HIM ANY IDEAS, WOODSY! :)

My guesses from the beginning were the 200 EXC and the KX250F. ...or maybe a RM-Z250?? Will we see Smit-Thump on a yellow bike this spring?

HA! That's my "secret": If ya can't go faster than the competition, ya gotta at least make 'em laugh!!

Hmmm, if not a CRF, then I gotta go with the popular vote on the KXF250....

WELL THE BOX IS'NT WIDE ENOUGH FOR A ROKON? The rebel son, maybe that Husky you've been yaking about? Your really living up to the "Dog part" of your name. If picked up a husy deal you would'nt need to had it carted? I'm guessing you picked up that 02 KTM 450 from down in IL. That was was on woodsracer.com :thumb:

 

[MWEISSEN]

Naw, that's not a bike crate! That's Smitty's crate. His wife is shipping him off to Nicaragua after he brought up the idea of a new bike. I copied the picture into Adobe Photoshop and enlarged the little stickers. They say "One-way live cargo, do not return".

Actually, I did blow up the little stickers, hoping to make out what they say, but couldn't get the resolution high enough.....

My votes for the new smitty scoot:
KTM 200
GasGas200
KXF250

 

[Smit-Dog]

Pretty crafty of you Mister Moto-Weissen! The stickers would have been a slight clue... too bad on the low-res zoom though... :debil:

I'm guessing you picked up that 02 KTM 450 from down in IL.

A big ol' electric-start 450 wood chipper? Naw... I'd be afraid of Woodsy getting injured by the roost. Way too big, tall, and heavy of a bike.

And no, it's not the KX250F.... you all must be getting me mixed up with that other fast KDX woods rider, Jeff Fredette... :)

Gas-Gas? No-No...

And the only ORANGE in that picture is the U-Haul trailer...

Husky? A very impressive piece machinery and fine Italian craftsmanship... but the yellow and blue didn't match the gear, and wearing an open face helmet w/ Scott's face guard scares me.

Woodsy... Keep dreaming of me roosting on a YZ-250F. I do it every time I pass a golf course.

I'll see if I can take a few more pics...

 

[fender92883]

OK then:

WR 250F
and my RM-Z250 guess still stands

It's probably just another KDX...:moon:

Why does the cake say "Happy Birthday"?

 

[michman]

I think the old dogger is going back to his roots and that was an oringnal Bultaco crate.

 

[BadgerMan]

After much research and careful consideration, I finally bought a dirt bike...

Notice that he did not say NEW dirt bike. I'm guessing it's a fully restored 1974 YZ250 :thumb:

Can I ride it, buddy?

 

[Smit-Dog]

... Why does the cake say "Happy Birthday"?

It was Zach's 10th birthday around the time we got the bike.

 

[Smit-Dog]

Notice that he did not say NEW dirt bike.

... And B-I-N-G-O was his name-o....

... Although new to us.
