Hijack: Gabe I think you used to own my 91 Cherokee limited ( maroon, small lift)

This is Noelle, not Gabe. I used his flickr link since he posted the photos and I'm too lazy to transfer/upload them to my account. Um, we housed a Cherokee for someone while still in Florida, but didn't own it. If I remember correctly, it broke down at our place while delivering an engine to us.

Here's a couple of ours, the small one is a 1969 honda z50k1, a twin to my first bike.I bought it 15 years ago for my boys to learn on, now we use it as a pit bike or just to ride around to the neighborhood. The big one is a 2006 montesa 4rt trials bike, its my sons current ride.Anyone not familiar with trials should google trials or observed trials, its amazing to see what they are capable of.

My "ran when parked" 1980 XS650 Special II. All it needs to be road worthy is brakes, tires and a battery. To be pretty, new handlebars, mirrors amd the seat re-done. Low mileage also. XS650

The SV1000 is pretty nice, but your buddies vfr800 is faster! Really though when I rode it I was surprised how tame it really was. It was fast and great fun don't get me wrong, but I to was surprised how un-wheely prone it was.

It on the other hand is wheely prone.
And since you crushed the Grand Am, I think I will now refer to it as the purple man missle.

Alot of Diverse Really nice rides on here.

Daniel

yes it is very wheelie prone! I would love to have your bike in the garage too, but noooo you have live 6 hours away, jerkface :)

and I approve of the nickname reallocation!

Here is my new, forget the recession, Wee Strom. I've added a givi top case and GPS since these pictures. Haven't done any off roading yet though. I need to find some good trails or fire roads first.

Looks like there's a few of these on this forum. I never understood why they were not more popular. Great bike for the money. Here's mine with Powercommander, Yosh pipes, Lockhart lower and bump.

DUNNO YET, JUST THREW IT UP THERE FOR A GLAMOR SHOT. THE DYNE IS A MUSTANG 1100SE, SO IT DOES DE-COUPLE FOR BIKES, THE DRUMS ARE HOLLOW ALUM AND VERY LIGHT SO IT RELIES ON THE MAG BRAKE FOR LOAD.

Here's my contribution. Nothing flashy, but a score at $650. It's an 86 Nighthawk CB450SC.

Nothing much special yet, just a top box, so I've got enough storage to use it for commuting, grocery shopping, general errand running, and exploring country roads :)

Old Nighthawks are great. Nice score for the price, although I paid slightly less for my 650 (got very lucky). Mine is back on page 2, we have a pretty strong contingent of them here it seems. Oh, heck, I'll post it again, it has a new seat since the last one:

love that Nighthawk, the seat, wheels and mini fairing make it take a whole different charatcer
July 30, 2009 12:31 a.m. Josh HalfDork

I put about 100 miles on it today, 30 or so in light rain. That seat and fairing make it a LOT more enjoyable to ride as well. The seat has a couple layers of high density memory foam under the Sargent cover, and the fairing sent most of the rain right over my head.

I bought a 2005 Sportster 883 yesterday. It only had 2007 miles on it when I picked it up and I got a steal of a price.
