A little of my background. I’ve always rode 250 4t but am looking for something that will be ridden more in the desert than on the track. I’m a mid to back of the pack rider in the intermediate local class so I’m not sure I would even notice the stiffer frame that they say the 13-14 bikes had, any input on this is welcome. They say the bike has under an hour on it. Any thoughts on this being worth it? I’m looking for something to keep for a while, not a ride it for a year and dump it kind of thing.

I've ridden a few bikes through the yrs. & share the general consensus that the SFF forks suck azz.. Including the new 48AER. Stayed away from buying a new 450 since 2010 because of the forks with the exception of the blue bike. Didn't want to buy one & have to invest & go through the trouble of doing a spring fork conversion.
(1) SFF forks. "These forks are horrid. They have a nice supple feel in the first half of the stroke, and then hit a block wall at midstroke. If you race on smooth tracks with lots of big jumps, you will like these forks. But, if your track has dirt, bumps and ruts, you won’t like them. Not even a little".

But seriously, PM me. My sisters boyfriend is looking for a bike after we took him riding for the first time in 12 years and he is hooked again lol
Jokes aside, I may be interested. Do you have any pictures you can post or DM me?
