I've got a China bike, and I was down near lower Greenville and I saw two Hawks. I'd love to ride, but the bike I have (an 05 Hummer) simply wouldn't be safe to ride off-road. I'd still be game to meet up!

I am game, although I have no idea where any legal trails are. We used to go out to arlington off 360 but that is private property and you get ticketed now. Let me know.
Been out here a bunch in my jeep, not a great place for a bike as it is just rocks and dust with some deep mud pits. http://www.cityofbridgeport.net/322/Northwest-OHV-Park |

What do you need to get your Hummer safe for off-road use?

Pretty much everything... I have an xr200 that the motor is going in; on the Hummer, the front brake is warped, the frame welds are bad, the rear brake mount is engineered in a way that the caliper contacts the disc when everything is bolted tight, the cush drive has excessive play, the sprocket mount is an odd duck that I can't find a replacement for, the chain is shot, and the shock leaks. Also I'd need to wire it for street use.

Can you dual sport an XR200 in your area?

You can basically put a plate on anything.
