Surprised we haven't seen or heard of any TM scoots.

Ok here is the TM choice.

I have 2 of them a 2014 530 mx blue in color and a 2023 450 mx pink edition

Planning on getting a 250 mx for the wife and another 450 in red for me.2026 corse editions

Closest to a factory race bike with all the aftermarket goodies as stock.the 2026 corse editions have even more goodies to add on.

Some nice choices, like the 1992 to 1996 CR250s and CR500s onwards, however I would not mind this:FB IMG 1635959165748

If I could snap my fingers and get any bike I wanted, I would get a bike that does not exist. A Honda CRF350.

What's the scoop here?  Aluminum frame and conventional forks?

A 1986 IT 200 just like I had when I was a teenager. Would be the perfect trail bike and I’d use it in vintage racing. Used my buddy’s PE 175 a few times which is pretty cool but the IT would be even better (if it’s as good as I remember it!). I’ve seen a lot of IT 175s for sale but not 200s.   

Here is my 86 IT200 that I raced Hare scrambles on when I started racing. Fun bike but rode a guys 87 CR250 that summer and when the 88's came out switched to mx.IMG 20250912 100748205IMG 20250912 100731581IMG 20250912 100529801

Nice! I have such great memories of that bike. I was 14 when I got it - it was between that and an XR250R.  I didn’t want the XR because it was heavy and I only weighed about 130 pounds - just sitting on the bikes the IT felt so much lighter. I think I made the right choice.

167 lb CR125 by Terry Good. Then put a big-bore kit on it or swap it for a 150sx motor.
