bad camera phone pic, but I actually did some work this past weekend at drill. Our MIG isn't working and I hate using ARC, so I TIG'd it. Came out pretty good :D

I bought 4 for $1500 on ebay some time ago and fixed them all up to make them all run and I sold them for about $800-1000 each. It was a fun project....

Those are pretty cool. I have a TW200 they could convert to the hill climber.

I bought those CT70s cause I was trying to re-live my childhood. I learned to ride on those things! They're a blast! It's just that I don't have the room to ride like I did when I was a kid so I got rid of them. Those things brought back a TON of memories for me.

My first bike was a '74 Yamaha GTMX80. Man was that thing cool.

SPEECHLESS! My whole life I was raised to be a car guy, by another car guy (my Father). However, when I see something like this or WCC's yellow Duc, I get closer and closer to taking the plunge!

Just do it Sand_Man! Make sure you taking a riding class and take your time to LEARN/KNOW your bike. When I first got a street bike I rode it when there wasn't much traffic out and on normally not very busy roads. Now I wouldn't hesitate riding anywhere, it's just that I like to ride when and where there isn't a ton of traffic.

Here are some more pics of my Duc:

Thanks!

I hear this all the time when people see my bike. Well 75mph is 75mph it doesn't matter if you're on a rocket or a cruiser or chopper. Believe it or not, I don't speed on this bike near as much as I speed in the P-car.
