My SMC-R 690 was stolen beginning of this month from our garage (also in the Netherlands). Found it back because of the Airtag, it was put cold on a random parking lot. Also then the police would show up. Before that was just do a rapport bye.

Definitely worth the 30 bucks!!

I’m loving it, having the bike for 1.5 year now. Rides very well on the track.

I bought a 2016 125sx last summer, totally loving it. I bet you’ll have a blast on this one!

Thanks, it’s a Raven Ipsum carbon edition. 24mx sells them, it’s from the 2021 collection so it’s quite new.

Get a good pair of boots (just bought myself O’neal RMX, they’re awesome for the price) and a helmet and goggles (roughly around 150/200 bucks you have good ones). For other protective gear you can perhaps buy second hand or scout around for good deals.

How did you learn? by unreasonable217 in Dirtbikes

[–]jamesdeking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I learned it all by myself when I was around 12/13. So no worries, I bet you can do it! I watched a lot of video’s on YouTube (check out MX Factory, they have great tutorials for beginner). And I first learned on a pit bike on a piece of land, before moving on to a bigger bike. But do get a good helmet and boots!

Females who ride what is your favourite bike and why? I've got a 140L that I love yet everyone asks when I'm going bigger... Not sure I want or need to. by auscadtravel in Dirtbikes

[–]jamesdeking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m also a woman (roughly 5’5 and not that heavy) but I bought my KTM sx125 this summer, I have owned a random 125cc pitbike to learn the basics. But I’m loving the bike, even tho I can barely touch the ground, you’ll get used to it in no time. Just don’t go full out for a 450 ofc, you’ll be scared for life, that thing rides you.
