nacradriver 650 #4 Posted January 7 More like someday, back in the day... I have used up all of my motorcycle 9 lives Eric Goboers RC500MX even with 4 speed gear box, the thing could still dig trenches. Got to ride one that was built by Pro-Circut one day... The Cheshire Cat had nothing on me after doing a few lap on that thing.. smooth power band and a suspension that could handle anything. Always like the old school BMW.. looked pretty cool in white too As for canyon blasting, always like the rice rockets... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Google image search failed me. First bike was Yamaha 175 Enduro totally tricked out, then an RD 350. Had a friends BMW R/75, when a woman turned right into me, and I endoed over the car and flew more than a few feet. Shattered left wrist, and cracked the Bell helmet, bike was totaled.

Friend had a DT 400 in El Paso (Ft Bliss). My Can AM 175 WAS A LOT FASTER. It was really light, the street legalities were maybe stretched a little but the light weight in the rolling dessert was a joy. This being not exactly model came in weight wise only 15 or 20 lbs heavier than a factory MX bike of the time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Possibly the ugliest bike ever made. I bought it as a hare scrambles bike to replace a honda XR350 that was stolen from me. The KTM was such an improvement over the XR. So much easier to ride and so much faster at the same time. Sold a KTM 200 MXC, that was somehow, but not really, street legal, about a year ago. It was like riding a 40 hp mountain bicycle. I just wasn't riding it anymore. I still have an older XRL650 and a BMW R100GS (that needs a new starter) but I don't ride them much anymore either. Transitioned more to off road bicycles. Less chance to break my old fragile bones hitting trees at lower speeds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The CB1 was great for the commute up the 405 splitting lanes and a joy in the canyons but a little soft on suspension and down on power compared to the FZR.
