Considering all the 2 strokes would only be seeing the back of it as it pulls away, who cares how ugly it is. So if Charles is speechless, does that mean he seized up again? Ken
leave it there... let the diesel pimps have at it, ding a ling ! don't u have enuff smokers to deal with ? besides, there's a pile of these still to come ... r u gonna help me with my T500 this year ?
yo mike! when you say that you are looking for a CB750F, do you mean a SOHC or a DOHC? if you want the SOHC, i just happen to have one for sale.....and i live accross the river from you in philly. to see the bike, you don't even have to come across, as it is up at my buddy's shop in hamilton twp, nj...... www.cycleicons.com or you could just shoot me an email at: [email protected] i'd also be interested in that RD seller's email, etc...... cheers, tex p.s. - ken's right, i can be bought for beer and donuts....i gotta raise my prices!
Against me and my V2 machines, maybe, but the current F-500 and V3 champs two stroke would wipe that ugly turd off the track. Charles may have seized, but speechless, NEVER!
Hey, I dont want it but if my friend Kevin finds out about it, well he is probably already on the way to get it. Being called a ding-a-ling by a knucklehead is kinda redundant, dont you think?
An "ugly turd"!!! hahahaha.. Very good, very good if i must say so...a bold, but well deserved description! Well, Mike's change of heart left me in a temporary state of aghast...visions of a lonely and unprepared RD were shocking, simply shocking....now, against all common sense and human dignity, we have the unsubstantiated claim that some vague "ugle turd" would eat Mr. Hinshaw's Kawi triple for lunch! Fellas, I know this is the Internet and all, but let us not abandon common sense and millions of years of evolution, perhaps hundreds of millions if we are related to single cell amoebas and such!!! In a master stroke of cosmic awareness and vision, the mighty 2-Stroke was created, and that, gentlemen, is a genuine scientific factoid known in all galaxies. We have no fear except fear itself, in the form of Kawasaki Triples.
The one thing I had a harsh reminder of looking at the RD was to actually go look at the bike. Its not like looking at a two year old bike where you have a fighting chance that it isn't too horrendous. The pictures online always look better than the bike actually looks. I'll do some reading on the XS. Thanks for posting it
You know who the current V-4 National champ is right? And what he was riding? XS650... Hey? Kenny Roberts liked 'em... For your edification: http://www.650motorcycles.com/StreetTracker1.html
Maybe, but there are no two-strokes in V4 anymore. They split over ten years ago and Formula Two-Stroke was born. Yeah see, the two-strokes where too much for the diesels in V4.
Hey....didnt Chum say something awhile back about it'll all come back to Kenny Roberts and Jims triples.....something like that....???
Oh, wise guy, huh? You'll be sorry now, I'm tellin' Kenny that you're laughing at him and he'll send Chuck Norris over to clean house. What's wrong, now, with Jim's triples ??? Is that one too many cylinders for you four-stroke floggers?
No sir...nothing "wrong" with Jims triples, or KR....I was merely making an observation that someone previously said the 2 stroke side of the conversation always wound up there....and by golly, here we are ....I'm on the sidelines here....just enjoying the entertainment :up: And BTW....I was there for that lap at Indy, and I gotta admit, that thing just sounded nasty!!!!
