What did you accomplish today?

[BudmanTX]

Had a bunch of 250's and only that one 125. One of the best was the Honda 250R atv I had a couple. Kawasaki rode nice and smooth but my Suzuki RM 250 was my favorite. That thing was absolutely nasty....was also around the same time I worked for my buddies honing shop (Wesco dealer ) my clutch basket was even aftermarket on that thing.

sweet......

my first bike was a what they called a big wheeled 80 honda, then i moved up to a 90 honda, from there rode 125's for ever it seemed, then i graduated to the 250, and i loved those.....before the track shut down....i got to ride a new 250 from Yamaha that bike felt great.....i tried the 450's but they were just a tad to much for me.....went back to the 250's

Finished out a very long work week, starting to remember why I enjoyed being a independent contractor for nearly 3 years.

My first bike was a 65 CB 450, thank god someone put a later model tank on it. The chrome and black original looked like shit.

It used torsion arms instead of valve springs, really ahead of it's time. Dual overhead cams also.

Ahh my first
an ‘82 Yamaha Midnight Maxim 650.
Since then I’ve had a thing for black chrome. I want a Big Twin with jugs and heads done out in black chrome.

I crinkle coated the cases and barrels on my triple when I had it apart.

Grocery shopping done and put away, need to make a beer run. BLT's for dinner. Getting warm out there already.

I am in!! So glad you reminded me I bought the fixins, plus I got english muffins so I could do open face sandwiches with tomatoes, bacon and melted cheese.

Do you guys put a slice of tomato on a grilled cheese sandwich? My ex's dad taught me that and it's pretty good. What a character this guy is!

9 pm and so far its been icy pops only I need bacon !

I got home from school one day and there was a new red, 69' Mustang Mach1, 428, sitting in the driveway that he got for my mom, I was going nuts over it & dad says "like the color?", I got you one too, opens the garage & there's my T70. Pretty good day.
Later on @16yrs old I did 140mph in it on a bread run to 711, even better day.

Back maybe '96...I was bushwhacking with a few buddies on our motocross bikes. The guy in front of me must have hit a hive in the leaves or something......I went through this swarm of bees. Those things got into everywhere! I jumped off my bike mid ride and started tearing my gear off on the run. Gloves, helmet, chest protector......right down to my undies........couldn't count how many stings I had.......it sucked '91 RM 125 that thing was a screamer.

We'd get those guys in the ER. It was like a game to get the endotracheal tube in before they swelled to the point you had to trach them. I always felt they took off points for the trach. My trick was to use a size 6 to 6.5 ET tube, LOL the guys always grabbed the 8.0.

So anyway, the time I went into the ER for something similar to that the ER doctor (who knew me and my proclivities) said, wait till she passes out and we'll trach her ROFLMAO!! I fooled him and the epinephrine turned me around so he missed a chance to shove something down my throat AND the trach, neener neener

I had the older version, a CB-350, with drum brakes front & rear. I rebuilt it, including custom paint, and it went to Florida with me in the back of my '66 Chevy van, which was also a trippy vehicle!

It's scary looking back that we drove this shit on the interstate at high rates of speed, and many are still here to talk about it

I fell over once trying to get his up on the kickstand. He just laughed. I was so pissed.

I worked at a Days Inn and one of my jobs was to change the price on the gas pumps. One of them had a drip, so I use to keep a can under that drip, and that kept my bike in fuel... and got me back &U forth to work...Plus I had Days Inn everything in my apartment.

What did your mom say he did for a living? I'm guessing a bush pilot.

My dad came home with a white Triumph TR6 for my mom in 76:



Then in 1982 she got herself a black 911 SC Cabrio. I got to pick it up from the dealer when she was out of town and drive it down a long new street with nothing else built yet. I was in third going 90 and it just wanted to keep pulling. It was a five speed. Loved that car.



My first car:



My second car:



Still have this one:
