Title: Guess the bike pic
Post by: VSP Home Care on March 12, 2011, 09:35:14 pm
Just wondering if there are any bikers on the board after reading that car thread.  If there are, see if you can guess my bikes.

Thinking about it, I used to ride dispatch in London and the old GT550's used to have a tow bar and trailer  ;D  The boy's used to wheelie them off the lights and use the tow hook as a stop bar  ;D

It's a half serious thought as it happens, for a Saturday night anyhow.  Do firms in London clean the windows at night?

Wicked Fire bike  ;D

RD 350 YPVS the only 2 stroke I ever liked, very scary fun  ;D

ZX9 a great bit of fun but a red one would be faster  ;D (nice pipe)

And the CBR1000 I think, great sports tourer.

xr650?

  No but I did have an XR650 in supermoto trim, bit heavy and cumbersome,it threw me off around the gooseneck at Cadwell when it snapped the chain, but did wheelie nicely.

  The bike in the pic is a Husqvarna WR250 with a 500cc Rotax engine running a flat side pumper carb - it was an absolute beast, that wheelie was in top gear at about 85mph, it was the only way I could ensure I didn't flip it as I obviously didn't have my foot over the brake lever :o

  I will try to find the picture of me doing a wheelie standing on the seat of a TL1000s at over 120mph!

I don't suppose you live near me Scud, the boys I used to ride out with on a Wednesday night were properly mad in the head.  I've seen a 160 standup on a k4 at night on the M25 2m in front of me, nearly poop my pants just watching him  ;D

I'm getting to old to run so I've not been out for a bimble with them for a while now  ;D

Title: Re: Guess the bike pic
Post by: spongebob on March 13, 2011, 12:14:18 pm
Scud.
That was confusing. I thought Rotax engine and headers but couldn't make out the bike. Looked wr tank but wasn't sure with the forks and swinging arm. That must have been a monster.
I have a Husaberg 400 enduro. Had all the big ktm's but they were too much for me. I used to run out of talent before they ran out of power!

Title: Re: Guess the bike pic
Post by: scud on March 13, 2011, 12:16:38 pm
  I don't think I am near you mate, i am in lincolnshire.

   I don't ride road bikes anymore, the cars scare me.

  I do have a supermoto at the moment (a converted YZ250 2t crosser), but mostly ride motocross as at least you don't end your days under a land rover because of someone elses accident - haven't ridden on a road since I witnessed that happen :(

  I sold my last trackday/race bike a few months back and don't see me having another one due to the expense of tyres and track days, I will stick to throwing myself at the sky on the crossers until I am too old to do it.

  Andy, I mostly don't have a problem with too much power for my talent (can never have too much power!) - my problem comes when my ambition overtakes my talent and the ground clearance on full lean!

  I demonstrated that around The Bomb Hole at Snetterton on my fireblade when the exhaust touched down and lifted the back wheel off the ground - that hurt my body and wallet!!

Mines mostly long distance trials and green laneing now. Did race last year but I am way too competitive. Enter the veterans(44 now) and wind up racing some kid from the motocross experts with 15 pit crew waiting for him. I'm trying to refuel while eating and changing goggles. My races usally end up in a tree. I raced Autograss as a kid and was british junior champion at 15. I see that flag or lights and just have to win. My mates are all there for a day out and can't understand it. Hero or Zero. What crosser do you race?

The RD was the most fun bike out of the lot, never failed to put a smile on my face.

The ninja was a 600 not 9, that was the fatest out of the lot, i dont know what it had done to it but it was insane, almost killed myeslf on it being an idiot so sold it. The noise was awesome but after an hour of riding it did your head in a bit.

Then got an itch, and got something quick but sensible like the cbr. The CBR is the most comfortable ride and goes well! Ive been miles on it and enjoy every second...im such an old man, im only just 26 lol...just a sensilble 26  ;D

Thanks VSP  ;D

Forgot to add this one in....

Honda C90 1972 - was my grandads bike which he gave me for my 16th birthday. It had'nt been run in 18yrs and had to be brought up from the cellar where it had been stored. I fully restored her and it got stolen from the garage 4 weeks after i finished it. Again, not the exact bike, but the same.

I think you'll find that the C90 is the most sold and used bike ever mate  ;D

Bit like Land Rovers  ;D

Last time I rode one was 20 years back at a bike rally, they had two.  One was used to see how many people it could carry and the other had a 6 foot swinging arm and was used for the slow riding competition  ;D

andy i bet you need to pump you them rear tyres abit extra now. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Cheeky git. jus cus theres nothing left of you now Frank! The Autograss when I was 15 was in a car on grass/mud. Now on the bikes I use mooses instead of tubes. No punctures but they get a bit jelly like on the road.

scud.
I'm not fit enough but will be back racing this year. i missed it last year. stuck in the woods on a hill with the experts using your legs for traction as they go by ;D
Dead engine starts 50 wide on the start line. Awesome. 3 hour races take their toll on me now. don't get the kxf, get the new husaberg 450.
