:lol: would it be possible to motard a xr 600? and what would it take? my buddies sellin a xr 600 that is street legal, what would it take to motard it? i was thinking about doing away with knobbies but does anyone sell street rubber that would fit on stock rims?... or am i insane for thinking this

Actually, it is a pricy conversion.
Fork brace, fender, wheels, tire, breaks and few other odds and ends.
Duel Sports are a blast and handle surprisingly well with 90/10 street tires and maybe a fork brace.

fork brace?? :scratch:

fork brace?? :scratch:

Helps to keep those 10 foot long forks from twisting. Gives much better feedback to the rider with out the bike walering all over the corners.

how much for a set of those bad boys?

going from a dirtbike to supermoto, im sure youd wanna stiffen a bit the suspension over the dirt set up too.. u should be able to do tubed street radials without new tires too, the supermotos run spoked rims just like a dirtbike, only thing may be that the rear COULD be too narraow a rim for the right size street tire.. but check it. that would be the two biggest things to get ya started for fairly cheap.... then worry aobut additional mds as u figure out how to ride motard style.

1K$ if the motor is in good shape and suspension is also is a pretty good deal.
