Cool little bike, JM. Congrats!
When is the missus getting started, or does she already have some riding background?
Respeta mi autoridad!

very nice piece and looks 100% stock too -- even the mirrors!

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Nice score JM!!

A guy I used to ride with once in a while had one.

He'd modded his heavily and turned it into a total hooligan bike.

And Nate's right.  With the correct rider, those bikes're a lot faster then anyone would think they could be.

Yes, but only the yellow ones.

I can't wait until Marquez gets on his level and makes Jorge trip on his tampon string.

Oooh! Good point.

But not blue.

Blue is a slow color.

Not as slow as yellow.

If i had my way. . .

id build a machine who's only purpose is to smash yellow bikes and cars.

She's had about 10 minutes of getting familiar with my old, beat up TS185 in the backyard and that is it.

We've had our first lesson though!  Very first thing we did - I found a small incline and we spend some time coasting down the incline, motor off.  C had to get an understanding for the fact the bike will balance itself and will go where you look & point your shoulders.  We then turned the bike uphill and practiced using the clutch and riding the bike under its own power up the hill. 

Might have another lesson this weekend too!
