lol why am i an a*shole? i gotta sell it because i live in onterrible and the only place to ride it is flippin blue mountain. she deserves to be ridden in BC and i can't deliver. she's better off with someone else.
never ridden the 888 so i can't really say fairly but there are a lot of threads comparing the 40 v boxxer v 888. basically the summation is that the 40s and boxxers will be your best bet for racing but require the most maintenance (rebuilds, new oil etc) whereas the 888s barely require any maintenance at all but are made more for hucking than racing. Can't really comment on some of the newer 888s though as i've never tried them but i hear marz is doing what they can with the 888 to make it comparable (race wise) to the boxxer and 40.
no idea bro, just picked it from a book, lol. all i know is that the colour had to be brought in from bc. apparently it's so rare they don't even have it in the eastern provinces, lol.
because i'm poor as fuck and spent my money on the rest of the componentry. didn't have the cash for anything better and just didn't really need anything better than that.
can't really say because i've only ridden her around my street a little bit. she's in a box now and on her way to BC tomorrow morning. i would imagine pretty damn nicely though, hahahaha.
