Default What do u have

I am curious as to how many bikes people own. What are ur insurance rates. In Winnipeg, Canada the rates in the city are expensive, as where in the country it is less expensive. I have 3 bikes, well 2 are my kids. 1 bike is a 2006 Panterra MX 150 Dirt, a 1977 Suzuki TS 75 B, and mine is a 1975 Kawasaki G-4 100 Trail Boss. My kids call the "Fonz" AYYYYYYYYYYY!

right now the only thing I have is a jetski which I rebuilt from scratch. I'm going to post some pictures of it soon. I finally have it looking pretty good. Whenever I eventually move to someplace with a garage I'm sure I'll have another bike quickly. Its just not really a good place to have bikes here as I've seen them get knocked over in the parking lot and mine was stolen.

Well Like Bud, I'm a little skimpy on multiple rides.

Just the ol' L5TA and a not quite rideable YG5T.

I'm also rebuilding an ancient SL 125 motor that has a really old performance bore\stroker\cam kit, it actually displaces about 175 cc.

Right now I'm having issues trying to get the upper piston ring free from it's death grip of corrosion. It's not your typical piston, it's some oddball, almost flat topped, OEM Honda piston with deep valve cutouts and lots of skirting cutaway to clear the larger than stock crank wheels. A friend of mine, years back, had an old Honda SL100 that he put an early Powroll kit into, turned it into a potent off road toy. I'm hoping this rebuild succeeds as I'm looking forward to having a little thumper again.

I ride a black BMW f-650 and have a Vento -150 (scooter) for my wife although the scooter is a kick to zip around town on.

I ride a 76 Honda CB750a. Just got it 2 weeks ago and getting familiar with it. It sat around for quite awhile so the kinks need worked out.
