    Re: 2 wheeled members

    I'm into 2 strokes bikes, I've got Itallian singles & Jap twins. Been buying them tatty & broken. Then doing a full nut & bolt rebuild/repiant/resto. Havn't been able to bring myself to sell them though, but 2t's are holding there value very well, so not a bad hobby to invest in.

    Cagiva Mito Ev1 125 - Valentino Rossi Rep





    Cagiva Mito Ev2 125 - Alitalia custom paint with modded 170cc setup.





    Nearly finished this one
    Cagiva Mito Mk1 Racing 125



    Also got a Yamaha TZR250 3MA1 & also a 3MA3 that I've started restoring to be finished over winter. They are JDM only Reverse cylinder GP replica's





    Should something like these if I decide to keep the original paint schemes.







    The 5 doesn't really get a lookin these days



    Shameless pic whoring.lol.

    Love the 2 bangers hence the user name, had a few 125 prillas with all sorts of bits, carbon reeds, 250 carb, jolly moto pipe etc, coupe of aprillia rs250's. I want another but the wife would go nuts. Dream bike like one of my customers is building rs250 frame modded to take a 140hp rgv500 motor. Mito has to go down as the all time nicest looking 125 ever, nice job on the few you have.

    Not my bike as I cant find any pics but identical to the t, with same paint scheme and twin arrow pipes.

    my bro has had a few rs250,s and a stan stephens rs300,he then upgraded to an r1 and then went back to the rs250,as he said the rs250 was much more fun and been able to embarrass the bigger bikes down the back roads

    theres been a few bikes in the house(between us all) a few pics


    ducati 996 bp that was taken to sps spec(inc motor)


    my eldest wondering how hes gonna get his knee down on the mv


    my dads ducati 851 tri colour and his ducati carl fogarty replica(genuine factory replica)the foggy rep was by far the best bike i have ever riden,just felt sooo right and it sounded awesome,as all v-twin dukes do




    and heres the last bike i owned(zx10r c2h)it was tottally mad and tried to kill me every time i went out on it if i ever get another bike it would be a ducati,as i just love the sound of there v-twins and the power is very useable through out the gears

    Oh my god I miss my bike I'm loving those 2 strokes but probably a little small for me. I'd love a 996 I must admit I used to have a VFR 400 - beautiful bike and I wish I'd never sold it.

    I agree about the nc30, brilliant bike. I had a tzr 250 for my first bike at 17 .Then a kr1s ,that was mad.I saw 140 mph on the speedo till one day it went pop.After that came the zxr 400 then gsxr 750 ,zx7 then r6. I then had a supermoto xr 650 and to finish of xr 400 for the green lanes. I did motorcross for a few years till the Gt turbo came along.

    6th gen RC46 for me. PCIII, O2 elims, K&N & scorpion pipes. Barks when its on VTEC Ride it all year round as a daily commuter.

    Not sure what next. Love the sound of a SP2 but may be a bit thirsty and extreme as a commuter, thinking K1200 (S or R). 170bhp and shaft driven, a rapid tourer!

    The owner would probably look over his shoulder expecting to see these scrotes:

    They tried to just walk off with over 40 grand worth of Panigales!
