[QUOTE="cinco in W MI, post: 1032178, member: 67778"] Just wanted to say hello. I was searching around for trails in W MI and came across this site, and wadda ya know, they have a whole forum for just michiganders, so something is definetly wrong with the folks that run this place. I live in Grant, 20 miles north of GR. I just bought a 97 KTM EXC 250 and will be looking to do some trail riding this year. Since I was a kid, this would be my first real dirt bike. I think my last one wolud have been a 76 El Gato! I have been rding street bikes for years, but the only place I was off road was when I got lost at Deals Gap and ended up back in some holler on 8 miles of dirt roads. Needless to say, its a lil different draggin a knee than what I am used to. I will be doing some searches and pokin around a bit before I start asking too many dumb questions. I will ask this, I saw where someone was asking about sound limits and after market exhausts. Is this really a concern? I ride sleds all winter, and all the after markets are WAY loud, and I have never been checked or stopped for exhaust. Do dirtbikes have more of a problem? I also saw a thread about the Northern tool tire changer. If your in need and in the area, I alrady have one and am happy to SHOW you how to change yours out. I can not change it for you, liability reasons and all. (do ya honestly think a guy who has his own is just gonna stand there?) I am happy to hang out in the barn and wrench anytime. I decided to get a dirtbike since a couple good friends of mine have them already and are always hasseling me to get out and go riding with them. Since winter really sucked for sledding this year, I broke down and found one I liked. I wanted the enduro, street legal type for trips into town and to get to the trails, but I may never need that feature as all the guys I will be riding with are on CR250s and dont ride on the street ever. I see theres several guys in the NE area. My buddy has a big dear camp on the west side of Alpena and we are hoping to ride up there a lot this summer. Have a great one. Hope to see ya out on the trails, and dont stuff me in the corners! [/QUOTE]
