Kirk's at least *looked* good even if somewhat lacking in the smoke dept

I take it these XR80 pistons won't be for a bucket? Being a competition bike and all......wouldnt want to be fitting any illegal bits now would we?

XR80 isnt a competition bike (is it??), competition bikes are like CRF, CR, YZ, KX etc. Well thats what i thought anyway.

See, all to confusing really, isnt it? Kick explained that if it could be registered for the road in standard trim it was OK.
Restrictions on pistons lifted? Really? Whats the point? Might as well open it right up and allow MX and GP stuff say 10 years old and older.

1) well he was that bloody slow that he had time to check the scenery out

2) Mate, all fast things smoke like that... looks just like a yank Starlifter barreling in

3) aint that the truth
