actually as ugly as it is that RM is a fairly rare bike, they only made 'em for 2 years, and boy is it a monster, scary fast and don't stop so good, lol. my father loves it, and he's starting a resto / refurbishing project on it. bought himself a proper seat cover, next will be some new plastics & paint, then newer tires and eventually an engine rebuild.

I've also got a late 1970's Kawasaki KD125 that's in much nicer shape and gets more usage ( more user friendly, lol) no pics though

I had a Suzuki 125 two stroke I can't remember the model for the life of me right now but I've never seen one ever, they were rare and made in the earlier to mid 70s it was a street legal trail bike had a hi/low 8 speed trans that was a fun bike but never had a title so it was just a trail bike for me until it lost spark and I traded it off lol, it's really bugging me that I can't remember the model...

I have a 2004 TRX450r that I use to putt around on ORV trails. Sorry for the potato pic. Its the only one I have on me(had to pull it from an old FB post) not to mention its from a few years ago. I'll add an updated pic later. It now has a powder coated frame & swingarm, Pro armor front&rear bumber, +2 A-Arms, +2 G-Force Axel, K+N Filter w/no air box lid, and the HRC needle/jet kit. I'm almost done with her. Just need to extend the steering stem and buy some nice shocks then I will be happy. As is tho she catwalks in 1st gear sitting down.

I HAD a 2001 CBR929rr until just a couple months back. Didn't want to sell it but with my kid being born, new house, and my new Ranger all within the last 6 months I knew something had to go. I'll get another one someday.
