I've got an 02 Yamaha 660 Raptor in black and white, and my wife has a red 03 Suzuki Ozark 250. We don't ride either one near as much as I'd like. Raptor has basic funtional mods, rear grab bar, chassis skid plates, front bumper, nerf bars, and Tag handlebars. Some carb work for better cold startups, aftermarket spark arrestor in stock muffler and Razor tires. It's stock otherwise. The Ozark is as stock as can be witht he exception of an AGM battery which I put in both ATV's last year and a rebuilt carb for some more mottom end (IDK what was don for that!). Little Ozark is a great pit vehicle! My wife and I ride on our 29 acres 2-3 times a year and the Ozark comes tot he track with us on out of town trips at large tracks. I bought the Ozark new in 2003 and my wife bought me the Raptor in 2004 for my birthday. They've do a great job of holding down the garage floor 90% we've had them. I thought about selling them for a side by side a few times but I would still have to take out a loan for that and I don't want any payments. They're paid for so they really don't cost anything to take up space!

I haven't rode in several years now, but I had a 88 Kawasaki Tecate-4 kxf250.
Not much was done to it, new pipe, and handle bars. In its day it was a beast. The guy I sold it to completely rebuilt it, and still races it.

I have a CR250 and an XR250. I don't ride them nearly as much as I'd like but I have never been without a bike since I started riding at age six. I'm looking into purchasing some land where my son and i can ride together. It sucks that there is nowhere to ride around here anymore. When i was growing up I could be in the woods in a matter of seconds and neverhave to ride on a street or cross land that didn't belong to a relative.

I used to have a 02 Raptor 660. It was a lot of fun although it was mostly stock but I sold it when I moved. I'd like to have another one someday.

Lucky SOB.

I have a track in my back yard, no jumps though. I'd be out there everyday riding if I had a track like that outback! (well almost haha)

When I ever move out or whatever, I want to build a Motocross track in my backyard and have one of those foam pits so I can just mess around with.

Kentucky has tracks everywere. Motocross used to be huge here in Ky/Southern Indiana unfortunatly the economy has almost completely killed it now.
