In what's probably not the wisest financial decision I've ever made, I traded my 94 Mustang GT for a 2008 KTM XC-F 250 today. Aside from putting around on my friend's old XR100 a few years ago, this will be my first motorcycle experience at all. I'm super excited/nervous/prepared to be hospitalized.

Excellent choice. I've had 2 of them (250 sx-f). Rebuilt one and the other was my personal bike. May want to look into a manual cam chain tensioner, but other than that they are super bikes.

I feel like I made out pretty good. I'm pretty clueless on the mechanical side of things for now, but as far as I can tell the bike has been pretty well taken care of. I know the previous owner raced it and kept up with the maintenance really well, along with installing a few aftermarket parts. It has been ridden pretty hard, but isn't in bad shape at all.

Picture!
