Ken, it has a radiator for the oil - does that count?

Anyway, my exact words were '– yes, I’m moving to a modern(ish) 4 stroke…'

It does have pretty hi-tech suspension (both high & low speed comp damping adjustment on the DRC coated forks, which I hadn't seen before!) and is held together with a 3-piece composite frame.

Think - 'old school' engine meets light-weight, modern tech frame and ergonomics - Instant modern XR200

Will, I'm hoping it will be the perfect toy to do the tighter tracks with

, but still capable of reasonable speed in the open stuff.
Sadly, it is unlikely to be Rec registered and run-in before next weekend, so I'll still be using the little XR200 for Neerim.

Pat, when I saw the Extreme model in real life alongside the other versions, I couldn't pass it up.
In my view, the extra cost over the MX or PRO is justified by the upgrade in the overall component quality of the brakes, forks and controls
Of course you can have a play on it - it was your suggestion to look at these things after all.

Tim D Online Administrator Posts: 2577 Thank you received: 273	Very interesting, a two year factory warranty, it's been a while since a bike company did that. I've always thought a XR400 motor in a modern frame would be a great trail bike, when is the 400cc version coming out? http://www.ajpaustralia.com.au/ But the XR needs a button!

Ian Robinson Online Administrator Posts: 2055 Thank you received: 119	I am thinking the PR7 looks good but wont be available until mid to late 2016 apparently. Now has the 600cc SWM/Husky motor instead of the Yamaha based motor.
