Here is my new ride and tinker toy.
I strapped it in like a big bike. The buell straps held it well. It needs a complete overhaul, but it should be fun. |

Didn't even think of that... looking at stuff on flea bay now to "hot rod" it. Are you going to do a "tear down" to check and see if it's legal for post race inspection. |

We're in for the fiddy race! Not sure if the fiddys are more fun to ride or watch with the big kids riding them. |

If you remove that period 'peace sign' sticker, the thing will never run right. That scoot should be cleaned, polished and displayed as is...in between backyard dirt sessions.... |

Not sure if the fiddys are more fun to ride or watch with the big kids riding them. Truly everyone has a good time. The riders are pushing their rides like they can never do their full sized bikes, grinning all the while. The spectators have a tremendous time watching what many have compared to a circus. Looking forward to out next Parking Lot GP.

It's one the best times ever! If the government ever finds out how much fun it is, surely it'll be made illegal.

That sure looks like fun, I wonder if a high side would hurt as much as off a full size bike |

That is so cool! You should call it The "Milk Money 200"! Get sponsorship, those leathers don't grow on trees nor does that collective 2.5 gallons of gas you all use in the course of the race! |

what a cool way to learn how to get rid of chicken strips without the worries of wrecking your bike or knees. I'm gonna get a fiddy. |

had an xr50 for a while, great fun, it seems fast when the wall in the backyard is your safety barrier. Too much fun stuff avail for them, can get tempting and pricey. I remember that peace sign sticker at the bike/motorcycle shop that I hung out as a kid. That and the old, you toucha my bike, I breaka you face sticker, and ass gas or grass, nobody rides free... |

Sorry I may have cross posted after reading the bad spelling thread. "juan-twin-knee-five"= 125cc lifan engine. Buying the aftermarket engine in a bigger cc, may end up being cheaper and far less time consuming then going through the original honda plus the added benifit of extra cc's. I was suprised to still see so many aftermarket parts for that bike. around 6-700 dollars would get it "street legal" again and with the 125 it may move around 50mph.

The way we play there are no classes. We have no class. We try not to run into one another is about the only real rule. Mainly we just play. |
