I managed to sort through the electrical issues on this bike dad had sitting in the shop, change the tires, and RIDE! Its just a 250 but being a water cooled 4 stroke that wraps past 9k.... It'll git....

That bike is totally perfect for where you live.

Buy some slick tires and you can totally be a motard retard on the track, too.

It's Dangle!

Its only downfall is being a heavy pig.... Takes quite a bit to get it off the ground.... But... We've got terraces.... and it'll jump them... ;)

Dad's talking about finding some correct material for the seat.... Its supposed to be a dark blue. That and the aluminum rack they came with from the factory. It could use paint too.... But IDK if I'm into TOTALLY disassembling a bike b/c the frame is due too...

Considering selling the NX.... Really need a bigger bike on the street, and a smaller bike on my parents place... Really need the space in my garage...

Looks like some idiot bought the wrong sunglasses too.... :D:D J/K Sid


A friend asked me to buy his Honda bike a while back, but I didn't.
Still have an itch I want to scratch though....

I still have an itch, but this just isn't enough out on the open road, and on my parents 10acres, I can't get it out of second gear safely... I've about bit a fence one too many times for my liking....

What's "the beauty that got away"?

I have a hard time getting tiny Oakley sunglasses inside my helmet. How do you manage those dinner plates?

... they go over the helmet, of course... :)

Those are too big to go over the helmet. They're big enough to mount to the handlebars like a windscreen.

That thing's pretty badass! I've got 2 Wr250's myself not street legal though : (
A 250 is plenty fast although with street gearing it might be a little sluggish, I've done 60 no problem in my wr in 5th

They slide right in no problem... The frame is slim, that helps..

A 2002 250 Yamaha Virago.

Its a torque monster. But on the street its wound just a bit too tight for my liking at 65-70. It tachs out at 95, but OK roads are not near smooth enough for that....
