Brings back memories -

I had a Brisgestone 3 speed 50 cc bike when I was a kid. I am told now by my dad that it was capable of 25 MPH tops - at 8yo though i thought it was a hundred.

Second Bike Honda 70 cc bike, looked like a real motorcycle only smaller.

third - CR 250 - like a missle compared to the first 2
fourth - CR 500 - had to upgrade got bigger.
fifth - Honda CBR1100F2 - Death machine, sold it quickly as I started speed wobbling at 150+MPH on I90. Oneof my more mature decisions.
Sixth - Kawaski 600cc
Seventh and curent Bourgett Beach Cruiser in Fire engine red

All started with the litle guys though. Man I miss those bikes.

very cool bike, congrats.
I wish I could find one.
was it spendy?
I'm guessing you're going to do "work" on it?
I'm glad to see it having fun, a little sad to see such a clean, original bike change, though..........if that's a pic of it.
But, ultimately,
it's yours to have fun with, so, check the "funometer" and make sure you keep it pegged.

Long before I met mylarry, when he was 19, his first car was a RoadRunner. He was in the Navy and sold it when he transferred to a ship. The man who ended up with it found a picture of larry and his old registration under the backseat decades later and tracked him down last year. He's restored it beautifully and sent this picture to mylarry. Larry whimpers when he looks at it.

I will see you and I will ask you for a ride and we will ride for a spell together and the world will fade away in our rear view mirror.....

ok....but no long white scarves.....thats all i need is an isadora duncan to happen, granted, it will be at 5 mph or less, but still horrible and a total harsh to the mellow.

thirt33n · Post by **thirt33n** » Sun May 04, 2008 11:10 pm

...ok, I'll tuck my scarves in.

bump.

found this pic online....49 cc scooters...omfg it must be spring, i keep falling in love...

why isnt everyone doing this? 100 mpg..... more jollies than disneyland on dmt...

the chance to indulge in that great american tradition of freedom of expression by creating and announcing their individuality in an object that is almost an extension of one's personality, projected or otherwise...

and in one summer, you could pay for the little devil in gas savings....easily...

for those of you lucky enough to live in a place where you have to steal water, then even better....it's an all year round sucker...

scooterlicious..

Love it! I have a Honda CB175S. Only about 45mph wide open. Original blue paint.

Here's our other (sob) we just sold - Old Ducati Swiss Army historically correct.
