Been here fo 20 minutes tryin to catch up ....
Yeah me too.....lotsa war stories.......wished I'd stayed up but the pillow was calling....got a few muhself......Looks like I may actually be done on the "J" thing today.....like the money but really need to spend some uninterrupted, quality time on my boat.....and the Blue Swedish Brick...and if the daughter actually manages to get her MC license.......gotta dig out a little Kazawaki 250 Ninja I got stashed in the basement...needs a new battery, check tire pressure and fluids, reg and sticker........twin cyl, eight valve, water cooled, six speed with a 14,000 RPM redline..only 1,800 miles on it...sweet little rig.....not yer grandpas 250!!!! Be the daughters first ride if she gets her paperwork....
I bet you got lots of war stories ! LOL
Sounds like a good first bike for her. That 250 is bout like a 650 back when I was 16 ! LOL My Nephew had one,sounds just like it. Very fast little bike !
My first bike was a Honda 90. LOL High and low range trans ! LOL
Robin;
In "World's Fastest Indian" the speed runs were Ducs..
That's all I got.
Night all
Yeah it's quite a gentle bike....bout like a Hooski 55.....gets the job done well enough but lackluster to run....has excellent torque with the four valve heads so it's easy to get under way with..but has the deadest powerband I've ever seen...like it's electric....pulls the same everywhere in the rpm range...makes no difference if it's turning 2,500K.. 5,000K or 12,000K ....just pulls the same.......weird....
That said.....I came the closest to getting a speeding ticket on that thing than any on of my other bikes.......was bringing it back to the garage one evening....got a wild hair and spooled her to redline every gear...just snicked into sixth at a tad over 100mph....and met a county mounty right at the top of a tiny hump in the road....EEEEK!!! Hit the binders....Looked in the mirrors......all I could see was tail lights about six feet in the air and the entire underside of that Impala..."Damnitalltohell this ain't gonna be easy to live down!!!" Was all I could think.... so I nailed it and continued on.....he musta thought I was a big Jappa and would be two towns over by the time he got turned around.....he didn't pursue.....he also didn't know I had to kick her down two gears to get over the next hill at 80-90mph!!! LOL!!!
Seen that movie not long ago. LOL Crazy SOG !! LOL
Bet you could make it run way better ! After she gets use to it ! LOL
Just curious , why you even have the thing ? LOL
