  1. 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

  2. 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.

    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.


  3. 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).

     


  4. 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.

  5. 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

  6. Note:

    Pazzo Racing - Performance Sportbike Custom Levers

    Almost all materials used in the manufacture of our levers are domestic (North America, USA or Canada). 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.


  7. 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.
