pyro 1 Posted December 2, 2006 Dude ! My buddy way back in high school had that same RZ350. It was maxed out w/ pipes and race tuned. He let me ride it and dared me to punch it all the way. . . See how fast it is. I tried. This Superlite 2-stroke, 2 cylinder street bike was AMAZING !!! A very very fast motorcycle. I remember it having a strong powerband starting around 6500rpm that would lift the front wheel @ 100mph, if you had the huevos to twist it. I hammered it all the way to the top of 3rd gear seeing 0-100 in what seemed like a couple seconds. It knocked my socks off and I sweared one day I would own one! Not yet, but maybe someday. In the mean time does anyone have a YAMAHA RZ350, or know someone who does? I'd pay$$ for a test ride ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PastaPilot 17 Posted December 18, 2006 This is the Bike I learned to ride on, 78 Honda XL100. My friend picked it up for $25 in a basket. We got it running and rode the piss out of it for 2 years. I can't say we ever changed or even checked the oil cuz one day the motor seized and we had quite a push home. To say anything about Honda solidarity, we drained about 12 oz of oil and then poured a quart in the sparkplug hole. The next day his big brother broke the piston loose and kicked it over a few times. Within a dozen or two kicks it was running again and we were back out in the fields. A few months later we both bought 200s and he sold the little Honda to another friend of mine for $100. It lasted another 6 months before the cam chain popped off the cam sprocket and broke the exhaust valve. Ahhh good times, many, many stories with that bike.....

pyro 1 Posted December 19, 2006 Heres the 1st bike I owned. I bought it back in high school for $400. It was hard earned money: I had to scoop 543,973 scoops at haagenDaz at minimum wage (pre-inflation estimate). It came complete with cool GPZ racing bars, helmet, and a real nice head gasket leak. Fix it? HELL NO, ride it! Race Mullhulland dr. with all those leather clad yuppies on their new GSXR 1100s. Once in a while she'd get squirley when a drop of oil hit the tire, and nobody would dare follow too close or pass due to oil splatter. Maybe that explains how I always won . . . Ahhhh, those were the days! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carguy 1 Posted December 19, 2006 This post seems to be turning into my old bike, OK Before my XL500. I had a DT250. It had a seperate oil tank and you did not have to premix fuel. Someone forgot to fill the oil tank and she siezed. Lessons learned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spyder 2 Posted December 20, 2006 Well, here's what my first bike looked like. A '65 S65 Honda With a whooopin' 6HP! Used it Sunday mornings to do the Paper Route. Then met up with the Cops at Winchell's for donuts and coffee (hot choc). But hey, I was only twelve Kept it in Stealth Mode. Spyder Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PastaPilot 17 Posted December 20, 2006 This was the first bike I ever bought 1987 KDX 200. I delivered about 16,000 newspapers over two years to buy this bike. My mom was dead set against it but my dad made an executive decision and took me to buy it. I think he slept on the the couch that weekend, but I was one happy boy. I only rode this bike for about 6 months and then sold it for another 87. Suzuki 250 Quadracer. This was by far the funnest machine I'd ever owned and the only one I still miss. Had it for a year and a half. Sold that one because I missed riding on two wheels and my paper route could only afford one machine at a time. This time I found a nice 89 KX250 that was used as a practice bike but was all prepped for MX. It was kinda beat up, but holy horsepoop that thing was fast. It would easily standup on the back tire in all 5 gears. Soon enough I was turning 16 and it was time to sell off all the toys for a car....Only mine was all black and not an SS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Santa Fe Dreamin 0 Posted January 5, 2007 . Look up any bike you've been wondering about.. . I guess I go back too far! Mine's not even listed. It was a Suzuki X6 Hustler – a 2 stroke vibrator. If I rode it for more than an hour without a break, once I got off my entire body would shake. Better than owning a vibrating bed! I use to blow off the Triumph Bonnevilles. I’d do wheelies across major intersections just to get the reaction from cagers. But that was when I was very young and very stupid. Now I’m older and… Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
