That would be a blast as a commuter!

 

i feel like you may have posted pictures of it before but nonetheless




i know i have posted this thing before but here is my little project thats been sitting idle unfinished for 12+ months, need to revisit this and finalize my last round of parts to order up and get her going

 

Looks the same as last time get to work!

 

legit is the same picture, has not been touched at all, my impulsive ktm purchase due to the dog passing really side tracked my toy spending budget

 

How she sits today, as in 2min ago. I’ll need to fire up the laptop to get a pic of her in the street legal prime.

 

This was mine before I sold it.

That bike was a blast.

 

Sweet little ride! My fear of getting a klx110 or 140 for the wife is me slapping a set of supermoto wheels on it and taking it over.

 

do it

 

that a bmw isetta back there??

 

Maybe turn the pink pw50 into a supermoto

 

83 Mini

 

Polished out the frame of the ct90 today. Was considering disassembly to paint everything but no need. She’s gonna be a survivor style resto now

Taped off a section to see how well it changed.






Before:

 

That Honda paint comes back to life really well. I did the same to my ATC70.

 

My first ever motorized toy was an atc70! That thing is gorgeous!

 

Thanks! It’s fun to bring them back to life. This was mine from when I was a kid. My dad bought it new in 84 and now he gets to see his grandkids ride it.

 

Fucking asshole in a BMW decided to beat me at the merge, then stand on the brakes when he noticed we were all moving right because of a fire truck running code. He accelerated into my escape route and parked there preventing me from moving out of the fire dudes way, I shouldn’t have throttled to get in front of him, but I did. The dude in front of me yanked over and slammed on the brakes causing me to get on the binders faster, and the dude in the BMW just tapped my rear wheel sending me sideways and high siding into the curb. Somehow slid out on the grass between the bike path and road and got up.


Now I need a brake lever and a new fender... and true a wheel.

 

Yikes! Glad you're OK. Sorry about the CT, that really sucks, I hate asshole drivers.

 

Yeah. Dude in the jeep that jumped over ahead of me stopped to check on me, the fire chief looped back to do the same. BMW tipped the fuck out. Hope someone calls in the plate.


Just snagged an OEM fender in Monza Red. Will be here Tuesday.

 

Glad you're okay. What more can you expect from a BMW driver?

 

Fuuuck. Glad you’re okay, though
