Put 50km on this baby this weekend, of course it was wedged in the back of my sprint the whole way :p 1975 kawasaki G3SSe, 6.1 cubes of raw horsepower putting a whopping 10.5hp and 8lb of torque to the ground :D added to my pile of project bikes

i ride this almost every day after work. it has a 5.75 horse briggs and stratton engine that i rebuilt 2 years ago an a custom exhaust that consiste of a pibe that bends down and goes to the botom of the frame wher the gasses come from it and eco back up and make that thing realy loud. at top speed it sounds like its going about 90 mph but it actualy tobs out at about 5-8mph.

My buddy has an 05 Raptor 660 with an FMF pipe too, and that beast is loud and fast.  I love the echo of the exhaust when u crack down on it.  There's nothing like it.

I'd love to get a streetbike, but as of now I only have a dirtbike.  I don't have any pics yet, but I have a 90 CR500.  When I get some pics I'll post them, which should be within the next few days.

A smokin deal came up today and I ended up with this

1982 CM450e, it was brought to the shop and the guy was selling it as parts, it was repo'd a couple years ago and was just sitting in one of their garages all this time, I will have to get papers for it but it fires right up and runs. Only damage is dent in drivers side of tank from it falling over while the guy was loading it in to his truck :rolleyes: a couple cracks in the seat and the Original dry rotted tires, only has 14,000 km on it which is under 600km a year, now I gotta pay for another  licence. All I had to do was pay the boss back what he paid for it and I also sold my 90 sprint today so i'm golden :D

On a related note the kawasaki is too rough to merit fixing, its becoming a gokart instead.

My 13 year old son "lives to ride":D

We have a full profesionaly built motoX track in our back yard. I have some friends that have raced for year's and all of them have said he will be one of the best if he stays with it. So ,we had the track built and he has all the best equiptment and he practices all the time.
However , there will be no racing this year because  He broke his collar bone in two places and seperated his shoulder.

oh.. his shoulder will hurt for the rest of his life now if he isn't careful
make sure he lets it heal all the way, trust me on this one...

and that is sweet, I hope he sticks with it if he is that good!
