I've had dirt bikes and this one is still in my garage.
I've got to go change my shorts now.....
Very nice,,, looks great. I love the flat bars and cafe style. Here in Dallas there is a HUGE group of cafe racer type's and "mod" group.
It's great to see people that preserve and respect some of this old stuff. Enjoy it and ride it in good health. Looks fantastic. Great header and I love the wraping on it. 100% all the way.. great bike.
Maybe someday I'll have the room to do more....
Take care and thanks for the posting.
Riding season here is over....I plan to pull one last round tomorrow just local. I assume all of you ^ based on location have some more time....I lived in both in Austin & CA. Miss it!
You guys need to winterize at all?
here 1 for now
awesome looking twin of the fat lady dat! If I ever get back into riding, I'll see if these are still around.
i am working on getting back on a bike asap (medical issues) but i still have a 2000 RC51 in the garage, sold the WR400 and my '87 250R though.
I think for my next bike Im going to get a RC51.
Wish they didn't run so hot. I would have picked one up a long time ago.

hi there,
nice bike, if i may chime in on something, please invest in some real boots. it is in human nature to 'dab' your feet in an emergency and broken ankles suck:smile:
take care!
some people call it obsession, i prefer to think of it as focusThanks
They were definately a wild ride.. full of surprises.
As you can see, at one point I was a tad obsessive about them.
I did sell them to make room for the NSX though.. so I got that going for me.

c'mon, if i can ride one (or used to) in AZ anyone can hack it:smile:
here's a few of mine......The one in the foreground is a proper kitted out racebike. Was super-expensive in it's day. The radiator was $10k alone!!
Oh, did I mention I was a Yamaha guy??? If there are any race fans on here then you might see where I get my forum name from looking at one of the bikes
Chris - You do need to ride next year more! Did you book Deals gap yet? I have mine reserved!

BMW R1150R, all around good bike. I can't take the lean forward for very long anymore and this has a nice upright riding position. Great ABS brakes, handles and rides like a dream, 6 speed takes 80mph all day long, 49mpg and 5.5 gal tank takes me 250 miles between fillups. Not real fast with only 85 ponies at 500 lbs, but OK.
Happy Motoring!
