Ever ridden a sporty?
The xs is a funner ride. Plus sportys are a dime a dozen, and shit, they still make them.
I bet if you did the trade, you will go to repair a few things, and next thing you know, your tearing it all apart and not riding this year, wishing you had your clean xs that you knew so well. Wait till the winter for a new project. We have bikes to ride them!
I just set my xs up from the bratty sort of look you saw before, to more tracker/scrambler like yours, and its soooo much fun.
