Title: What else you ridin ???

This is a few laps at our private track. I'm on my 4fitty.

Even done a few on the K-5 ... no vid yet....wasn't worthy of one....just getting use to it.....putting a K-5 in a 250 frame this winter....that will be better for our track  :-D
Comming short on the K-5 was painful on a few of the hits  :cry:

Anyway, be kind....i'm 40 years old...rode bikes all my life, but only started MX at 36 years old.....just never had a track in our area...til we built one :-D

Just because you ride a MX bike....doesn't mean you ride MX....i found that out the hard way  :-o

Cool ride man, was that you on red or blue?  I hate blue, don't mind red so much, bleed green.  The vid was really cool with this playing in the background!

My ex-Bonneville racer.
The bad news:  I toasted the crank this summer.
The good news:  I have a trade lined up for an RZ350.

Picked this up this summer.  Paid too much but it's only got 2700 miles.

Sounds like a sweet bike.  Trade?

Nice toys! I have ALWAYS wanted a 2 stroke vintage street bike. What I would give to have something like those near here. I rode a KZ175 which was pretty d**n small, but was so much fun on the road.

I toyed with the idea of a 500 but I heard they're not a friendly ride unless you're WFO.  I'd hate to plunk down that much jack and not like the bike.

The trade I have going is for a red & white bike but I've lusted after the yellow KR replica since they were new.

This is the only other bike I get to ride and it is only for test purposes after wrenching on it as I am my Momma's personal mechanic and this is her pride and joy...

Was there a 125 non street legal version of this bike? If so, I had one when I was about 12 and it siezed on the first day of riding. I'm pretty sure it looked exactly like this one. Thinking back now I'd bet that my step-dad forgot the pre-mix!

This is my ticket getter  :-)

I always loved the gixxer 1k when it was first released. I was a blue/white fan though, always said I would get one. But, kept on buying r1's instead of gsxrs. I don't even know why anymore.

Our street rides: (Myself/Wife) :-D
