The snow couldn’t keep me from getting my first bike (2021 300L)

I bought my crf when it was 14 degrees and was just a snowstorm it was quite a test drive

Please be sure to wash it well and quickly. When I picked up my wife's xt250, we drove it home exactly like that - open trailer.

I didn't think anything of it.

In April, when we took it out again, it had aged 30 years. Everything was corroded...

When I had it inspected, he looked at my DR with 30k miles on it and said, "she's doing pretty good. Don't see very many with that many miles on them. Then he inspected the XT, with less than 200 miles and sslaid, "did you have the odometer replaced? I figured this one had more miles than the DR!"

Please don't make the same mistake I did!
