70 years old and still lovin' the chit out of my CRF450RX. Finally bought a new pair of tech 7's. My old ones were close to 30 years old and the plastic was dried and brittle things like the straps just snapped. I will say the new ones are far more comfortable than the old (worked for riding, sucked if you tried to walk 10 feet).

FYI, imho, the best option you can purchase for your scooter is a Scott's steering damper. It lets you ride harder longer.

So, went riding today with another old guy. He brought a couple Ebikes he recently purchased. I brought my 300 xc. Did a 7 mile tight woods trail on mine and did it again on one of his. I gotta say, it was amazing. I felt like I was a lot quicker, but I took a bit more of a beating.

Things that can be improved: raised/plush seat, more aggressive tires and do something with the forks.

I hate to say it but I may pick one up and sell the KTM. I'm not racing or anything so 1 battery charge is enough for me. I know, I know.
