What is up with that?

There used to be a few small companies making dirtbikes out of the US back in the day I think but none of them were any good. The Euro and Japanese companies have this technology down.

You're lucky, are you going to invest in some protection for your legs now? Just keep the stunting off roads with traffic and I don't have a problem with it.
As far as my update goes, the Blast is gone and I have a project CBR600F4i now which of course I love.
