I did the opposite. Started riding streetbikes, they are fun, but too fragile and too easy to fuck yourself up bad on. Got a dirtbike and loved it. You can beat the shit out of it, drop it, crash it and it wont cost you big bux to fix. Then I got into quads and nothing beats tearing shit up in the dirt. There are no legal places for me to ride either unless you want to pay a bullshit 1200 a year membership fee to ride on a crowded track. Long story short I have a 02 gsxr 1000 for sale and 2 quads that arent.
