Bike all legal and on the roads

[Trogolodyte]

Yay,
The Mz500 Country that I bought on the 13th august, She is all legal an back on the road after being stuck in a garage since 2008.
So am going to go out and play for a while...

12 miles green laning on dirt roads, 60 miles on small twisty roads. Was Great fun, right up untill I found a load of litter and beer cans left by some fools, so tidy'd it up put it in a plastic bag in my the little topbox, and put that in the bin when I got home. I was always taught, take nothing but photographs and leave nothing but tracks.

Great to hear you're back on the road. Sounds like a fun area.
Too bad others don't feel the same way about their trash.
I've started picking up odd bits here and there, lately (and usually just have to pick it up and walk a few feet to the trash bin...) .

Yep, sure would be nice if everyone did that. Down in central Alabama there's some great twistys to ride but some of the locals use the side roads for dumping junk and feel that the more trash in your yard is a sign of wealth. But it's getting better.........

i always thought the junk should be stowed on shelves in the barn or shed
and my good mower does not set out in the rain

i have been known to let the Saxon Tour or RT125 get snowed on

Thinking of putting a 670 cam in it now...

[DAVID THOMPSON]

why hop it up mine goes fast enough to scar people to began with
just go get that new bmw with 5 times the power any one really needs
dave

[Trogolodyte]

you pay for that nice new BMW then, we all dont have that kind of money

[Trogolodyte]

Sorry dave,
I didnt mean that to sound quite as nasty as it did, I already have a bike that is more than fast enough for me (ex police honda pan european 125 bhp and over 135 mph capable) but any bike I ride has to be able to keep up with average Uk motorway speeds ie 80-90 mph, I dont like only just managing to keep up with traffic and having to rev the guts out of a bike to do it, I would rather have a few more bhp and grunt to push past traffic when needed. A new hotter cam is the easyest and cheapest, answer to my particular problem, and is reletivley easy to take back to standard if i need to.

ATKUSA used a 605cc version of the motor
if you could get your hands on one of those
that would solve the problem
guess your roads are like the big city's here
road is posted 55mph every one is running 90mph
but when you go that fast there's all of a sudden a COPPER
polishing your license plate and saying your a bad boy!!
