    poor little bike ?
    my old TZR 3MA wasn't, it was an evil, vindictive and spiteful biatch.

    I was talking about the look not performance, would dare talk about something i didnt know about. Hence my lack of confidence with women

    got her running yesterday ....it's smoking like crazy no oil pump so i ran it on premix 25:1 errr it's smoking like crazy and when u rev it u ca'n hardly c thru the smoke....

    mind you thats when it's on the choke...im having a hard time getting it to idle off choke...anybody know what ratio i should run it on premix at??? praying it's just bad tuning and hopefully nothing worse than rings if something worse it going on

    well anyways the bikes in a million pieces right now not a single bolt left in the chassis nearly got all the yellow off gud old paint stripper...

    but damn that stuff it hard i think it's 2 pot baked but the stripper goes straight through it it looks so damn pretty now

    two strokes rule, non-conformised in a non-conformised world.

    I love them because they make no sense, are noisy and smell funny, just like me.
    The real mystery is how come that fat bastard Hurley has never lost any weight.

    Two strokes make perfect sense

    Having a bike that chews pistons, rings, burns oil and uses more fuel ($1.41.9 now mind) than a 1000cc Vtwin is sensible? Plus a powerband that has caught out many a learner and if you ride sensibly it oils up sparkplugs?

    On the plus side, only took me 20 mins to pull off both pistons.
