I hope so! IRT abusing a riding jacket: I believe I have seen those 'guys', the ones who used their jacket as a drop cloth for an oil change.... One $300 jacket will usually absorb about 1L of oil. The rest? well, that is just excess. I guess there is one upside: Used oil on your jacket will mask body odor. revmaaatin.

I have decided to get a KLX250s for mostly off road use. I have narrowed my choices down to a new 2009 for $3,500 or a 2011 for $4,300. I do no see much difference between the two bikes. Can anyone think of a compelling reason I should not buy the 2009 and save $800? Craig [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
