huh maybe you should let me test ride it![]()
Oh no! what a shame!
It would appear we are both (will be) 2 stroke-less, now that is a dam shame
This bike just NEEDS to be raced, A pair of Sport Demons dont cost alot, warm up fast , stick really good and work great in the wet, (and last well) Pre 82 junior is awesome "Fun per Dollar " racing
Someone buy this bike and i will see you at The Post Classic GP ,Taupo Oct 31st
That was me... my `reward' after helping with cleaning the carbs and putting them back on...
Like viffermon, my hands were shaking. You can shove your GSXR1000s and Busas and even RZ350s (of which I rode GiJoe1313's (Betsy) back up SH22 yesterday)... that thing is far, far more frightening. It's uncontrollable --- no matter how careful and gentle you are, you cannot --- cannot --- keep the front wheel down once you cross the powerband in first or second gear. The revs shoot up, the noise gets louder, the handlebars start quivering from side to side and you feel like you're going to fall off the back. I really struggled. The RZ350 (or 250LC) is utterly tame in comparison. RZ350 may make same or more horsepower, but it's as gentle a beast as an inline-four 550. This... well.
I think if a really smart Japanese man thought really hard in the 1970s about designing the most effective and efficient device to kill a young man, he'd come up with something very closely approximating an RD350 with the wild spannies fitted to PirateJafa's.
That is a dangerous, scary bike. I want to buy it but I think it'll probably wipe me out.
I suppose i should give the kickstart back then?
would you take 2k for it?
I was going to go look at a TLR but this looks more fun
lets just say the TLR would be the better bike for avoiding injury
I had a ride on her today after returning the kickstart - while it isn't the power itself that's the problem, it's the delivery and instability that makes it feel like a very Bad Idea - Especially for you wimpy road riders who go all soft at the thought of a little headshake
If you've ever ridden a sidecar with suicide shift and no brakes and consequently crashed, you'll known what i mean by Bad Idea cause that was another one.
