I tend to like the models of bikes that dont seem to ever make it to the states. Or if they do, they have a limited number of them.
Big reason why I am here, is to get a bit of info about the SRX250. It was in the US for only '87, but you guy got it as early as '84.
I also have a SRX600 (imported to the US in '86 only), 07 Triumph Tiger, and a few others.
Glad to be here and really hope to make it to NZ and/or Australia sometime in my life.

Sad to see the end of my trip but happy to be heading home.

Welcome to the site :)

Welcome to KB. I've been to Atlanta briefly, it was awesome!

[droopydawg]

Thanks for the welcome, y'all (that is 'country' or 'redneck' for "you all")

The boys of Stockbridge? Not part of them. Is that a riding club? There is a number of informal 'clubs' that ride around the city, and wear various jackets that show they belong to some sort of group. Never met any of them that I did not like. Seems motorcycles break down all sort of barriers.

Hi Droop-
went to Atlanta years ago with IBM, very nice place and had a really interesting night life scene (Cheetah 3 still in business?)

Had a look at your profile - are you the "Rambling Wreck from Georgia Tech"?

anyway there a plenty of the little yamahas here, what do you want to know?

[droopydawg]

Didnt know there was more than one Cheetah. The only one I know of, is actually about 1 mile from my office. They have an all you can eat lunch buffet in the afternoons. And yes, I am at the 'Rambling Wreck' place. Not a fan of the school, its a job, and a pretty good one. It supports the family and my motorcycle habit. I'd rather work in a motorcycle shop though, but the money is not as good there.

I asked my question about the SRX250 in another forum and got some good leads. Looking for a center stand for my SRX250, since the U.S. spec did not come with one, and other market bikes did.

Thx
