Found this site about a week ago and have been reading non stop since. My name is Tyson, I live in SoCal I currently ride a 01 KX250 and I have 2-3 more rides before she gets torn down and prepped for a K5 transplant. I've ridden the 250 for all shes got and I'm still looking for more so the 500 should be the perfect fit. I prefer to in ride Glamis in the cooler months, but I'm usually up for a ride anywhere in CA.
