Been kicking around the idea of switching over to Supermoto racing for a season or 2, when I came across this scary photoshop'd thing!

The dug items are both Rizoma I think. Trojan Horse has that stuff, the rest looks like someone playing with Goo.

not looking to convert the Buell race bike into a supermoto. Either sell it, or keep it, but never convert it into that thing!!

Sure Dana! If Jeff Ward can do it at his age...... Well, that doesn't mean dick, but....
Road racing is fun. But I've been looking at costs, and Supermoto is a hell of a lot cheaper. Plus it's not like you can't road race one, although it's be a big task in the lite weight classes.
I've raced motocross. I've road raced. Seems like something that might be worth a shot.
What pic are you talking about?

Hard for me to take a pic of myself in mid air when I am on the bike, y'all will have to settle for Pink Fuzzie Bueller Girl

Hahaha... nice pics.

Aprilia's just come out with a new super motard that's got a V-twin engine in it. It's the only V-twin powered genuine MX bike I'm aware of at this time... but it weighs around 300 lbs, so I'm not sure the Buell can compete. Ducati's got their HyperRetard bike which looks supermoto, but it's definitely all street.

What's the point of City taking new pictures -- the bike is always lookin the same in them: orange and dirty!

Oh, I get it, you want different angles of orange and muddy!

New pics soon, right now it is on the lift for New Belt, new front sprocket, new pulley, and rear sprocket. Adventure riding is not kind to these items apparently. And a new set of Super moto "rain" shoes are waiting in the wings.
The Sachs Xroad is looking more attractive to me daily, light, clearance, road legal and relatively inexpensive. Might save the CityX some abuse.
