Just saying hello. Trying to learn something about dirtbikes as I have zero experience with them. Haven't even ridden one befere! However, i'm probably about to buy a yz426F from my buddy. Before I commit i'm taking the bike to have the carbs cleaned and valves checked. If the mechanic says it all looks good-I'm buying! Been kind of excited as i'm hoping it will make me better on my sportbikes.
Like I said, I have no experience on dirtbikes, but lots on sportbikes and do most of my own work on them as well... I've had around 15 or so bike's. Been doing trackdays for years, and raced a 2006 r6 3 races. Currently I own a 2006 Yamaha r6 and a 2008 Ducati 1098.
Anyway, I look forward to buying, learning, and riding!
