Nicely done.......I too like the blue with the silver fenders.....I had a Yamaha DT 250 that had a green tank and silver fenders. I liked that bike.

 

Looking really good, I may have a chance ro actually get out and ride mine tomorrow.

 

haha, I am not sure I would like to ride a hard tail as much I like the way they look? It just think the straight sloping lines of the frame from the steering neck to the rear axle is awesome! G.B.

 

Thanks duffy8540! 70's dirt and motocross bikes like your DT was the look I was going for. G.B.

 

Thanks whylee! Hope you get out soon and ride that thing. I think I have around 200 miles on mine so far. G.B.

 

Did a little exploring this evening and got some dirt on the Scrambler. I was a good time! G.B.

Well I have put on over 1,000 miles on this bike and all it good. It runs and rides great! It is so much fun to ride. To be honest, it is way more fun exploring the dirt roads than the paved ones. Rooster tails in 1st and 2nd gear and sliding around the corners. The bike is always dirty which is fine by me. The pictures below were from my early afternoon quick trip up to the corner Home Depot for some more tile grout G.B.

 

HD should have a factory version like yours

 

Was looking at an article about a Ducati scrambler, this AM, and I thought, the sporty scramblers are every bit as nice, if not nicer, and way more product support. Probably more reliability too.

The Duc did have a weight advantage, and more hp (73) than an 883, but about the same torque (49). Their hp did not peak till past 8200rpm, and torque around 5700. Too high to be real useful in dirt, in my mind. And it had almost 6" of travel, but that can be easily had with shocks and front end mod.
I bet the sporty wins hands down in maintenance required, and cost to own. I think I would go for an SCR950 before the Duc.
