Default A little help gents

Im sure you guys get newb questions like this everyday. Ive scrolled through and tried to find my answers before leading to this so go easy on me guys.

I have a rc51 but looking to get a SM to just tear it up around town. Problem is I have no idea where to start. Im not commuting everyday or taking it on roads that go above 55. I want tons of power... i love the rc and love the torque. I want something that will make me rethink a SM haha. Is getting a dirtbike 450 a bad idea?

The cost seems to be pretty low and with a little work I can get her on the road no problem i think.

Any help or a push in the right direction always helps guys.... thanks!

Ok if your looking for a supermotard that has serious power and is street legal look at the Huskys.

The 610 is a low maintaince bike and the power will suprize you.

all motards are tall bikes i have a 34in inseam and just barely flat footed on a husky.

i just purchased a 09 husky 510r bike is 55 lbs lighter than the 610

the 610 weighs in at 315 lbs.

plus husky dealers are making sweet deals plus 1000.00 back from husky.

hope that helps.
