OK! You've given me about 2 weeks of research and travel opportunities. I am not an impulsive shopper so I will probably visit every single one of those locations before I take the best offer.
My ideal cycle would be a Honda CRF450 L so I can street it and go off a bit. I have a VFR at home, but use it for touring- not speed.
I understand the prices are not cheap. I need to get my first paycheck Oct. 1st before anything happens.
Thanks for the information and I will keep checking this post to stay in touch.
