  1. I'm in, 60+ class. Last year was a good solid challenging event with a little bit of everything even a small e cross section. Climbs descents open tight rocks and sand...maybe even some wet dirt this year.

    2008 Aprilia Scarabeo 200, make offers (really)

    BTW new seats can be bought on E-Bay from the UK reasonable pricing. Or a reupholster job local. OEM seat is the camel tan/brown bike is dark dark blue
  3. I bought her with the hopes of a resto job, which i usually do well like my other cool projects. The bike was running when garaged, seemed to need some auto clutch work (it was rattling). cosmetics need work (seat for one) I have brand new lock/ignition set along with new levers. She was used as a commuter between Pt Loma and Coronado. These are freeway legal "scooters". 200cc 4 stroke 4 valve (Rotax/Aprilia engine). Large wheel scooter more like a small motorcycle. Photo is of the model that matches, mine is more rough but not too, too bad, even with a good detail job mine will look fairly nice. Make me an offer, really throw me a number. I would like her to go to good home and be restored nicely and ridden. Robert-accio

  5. if you said this was deep in baja california i would believe you
  6. that street vulnerability just gives me the heebee geebees
  7. Padu, FYI we have a second person personal connection with Lyndon P., I have a friend who is a fairly close friend of his and has hosted him here and visited with him in EU. Spain - Lyndon Poskitt (lyndonposkittracing.com) Lyndon Poskitt Racing - Ride With Us - Rally Training Spain - YouTube When I have ridden with one of the Italians I know that did FIM WEC and FIM World Rally said our terrain looks and feels exactly like Baja de Espana, as seen in these Poskitt Spain videos. You think you are in Ocotillo Wells in a canyon or wash.
  8. Call C&D Cycles for sign up and details. Nothing like a demo day to ride new bikes that are not your own. It feels great to be a Pro test rider for a day!! I did the last one at MotoVentures it was a brilliant day of riding RR Race editions as well as RS DS models of every type and size 2T and 4T of course!!

  10. I'm tied up again, so a nogo again this time, but Wattsy class has been on my radar/wish list for as long as he has been on the scene, and I've been a fan. While others were in their $$$ team motorhomes during the 1990s heyday of world enduro in his career he was sleeping under the stars and under his truck. A true country arse outback Aussie. ISDE OA, FIM World enduro championships, US GNCC------for all of us bling mod people- He's the guy that uncrated a different model KTM for almost every GNCC in his championship winning season with a stacked field. He raced OEM stock out of the box bikes of all types and sizes that season (a bit of a psych out for the other factory supported pros).
  11. or shorten it "participate never spectate" I word play with the rhyme from time to time.

    Hot Shoe HOF Las Vegas NV

    Brought to my attention last year is the Hot Shoe Hall of Fame (org.) Out of Las Vegas NV. Seems all proceeds go to charity causes (1 example is providing shoes to less fortunate folks). Anyway, just making awareness of this HOF (independent organization). Note also it's not all just flat trackers and speedway guys, that was just the start, it has grown bigtime into all 2 wheeled related folks in the sport. Hot Shoe Hall of Fame (hotshoehof.com)

    Why AI is bad

    tell me my eyes are not off, the AI computer got the perspective incorrect on the opposing side saddlebags.
  17. 1) was too relaxed no holeshot battle, this was a restart after a course crew mess up on the original start leading to opposing riders on course! 2) rode too close to Jairo and got stuck 3) started to feel better then chose a bad line slid down 4) used alot of energy on the first 2 screw ups 5) ended up finishing well after all the 1st lap drama 2023 18MAR ZR Promo HS at El Chale Tecate 3 - YouTube

Starting from the 6061-T6 aluminium, the custom made components, the anodizing, the cartons all are Made in USA or Made in Canada. Excluded are the Metric fasteners, they are from Germany. The CNC machines we use to manufacture the levers are all Made in USA. We strongly believe in supporting our domestic markets and proudly declare the levers are Made in Canada.

    Super nice kit!!! Pazzo Racing (Crazy Racing) This falls under the "got a $10 head wear a $10 helmet" logic. In house design and other R&D, limited production, super high quality build and materials, vs copy cat construction , zero R&D, less expensive material ( or fake rated material) zero pedigree.
  23. Reed Haberer KTM350XCF-W has @ 75% win ratio over me, Reid Mirvis KTM300XC-W TBI has 0% win ratio over me........ there are the 2 Reeds I know and ride with both are fast and unafraid to ride hard stuff.
