I had a drz125. and i could only just touch the ground hence why the small bike lol. I loved it but sold it to get ahead in house repayments. Things you have to do as a "grown up"

Nice bike! 29 years riding with one minor accident is fantastic, you must be doing something right

View attachment 206037I am only 5 Foot and I need a bike with a seat hight of no more that 28inches.

I'm only 5ft1, I had a Suzuki Intruder which I posted pics of. I could touch the ground on that lol.

View attachment 206037I only have one bike and it is a pit pro and yes it is in my kitchen. It is the only bike small enough for me to ride, I have had a go at an RM 80 big wheel with really soft suspension and I could bearly touch the ground but it was so much fun any way I want my road lisence so bad it hurts but I have not been able to find a bike that I can touch the ground on. I am only 5.1
How is this I went to Qride and passed every one of their stupid tests on a bike that I could only touch ground with my tip toe on the left side of the bike and comes to the last test of the day, hill start at a T intersection on a sloping hill, went to touch ground to stop at the stop sign, miss calculated how far my toe was to the ground, needless to say I droped the bike. End of story.
I am only 5 Foot and I need a bike with a seat hight of no more that 28inches. I am so close to modifying the pitty so that it can be road registered. LOL, would be cool.

We have a lady in our club and she would only be your height, when she stops at the lights she slids her backside of her Motto Guzzi so she can reach the ground with one foot, she manages very well.

im looking to sell my downhill bike if your interested, selling it to buy my first snake actaully. its an ironhorse sunday team. great bike to ride plus sam hill road one in the world cup too

 

[MrFireStorm]

Our 2002 VTR 1000 Firestorm....It has got H.I.S.S (Honda Ignition Security System) and Venom pipes (no baffles).

Got my licence wayyyyyy back in 1985.

Only really had 1 accident, where a car cut me off and I thought the ditch would have been softer than a barb wire fence. The biggest concern for my wife was how much it was going to cost to fix the bike (didn't even ask how I was)

So guys, im not really top notch when it comes to LAMS bikes. a GSX650S or a GS500f. can either of them be derestricted by swapping the ECU in them? or at all somehow. i have a mate who wants to get one he has been riding for about 4 years but just got his RE so want a decently fast first bike. his limit is $8000. he ways 100kg and is 6ft on the dot. so a big bike like the GSX is not a problem. but he wants one that he wont have to replace once he gets off his RE but he can just derestrict. if not what do you think is the best LAMS bike for him?

 

[Erebos]

Yes you can de restrict them it's a throtle stopper and the ecu it cost about 5 k to do from the shops and the won't want to do it.

damn i wish i had my moto still. had to sell it to buy a sleep apnea machine (aparently living is more important then a motorbike...i didnt think so)

 

[SnakeNBake]

This is my longer distance cruiser,

Road King with 103 Kit, S&S easy start cams, Thunder Max auto tuner, and plenty of bling.

And this is my play toy for my having fun days,
2,300cc Triumph Rocket 111 with 100 HP shot of NOS, cams, lock-up clutch, tune boy computer, plus plenty of porting & polishing.
Approx 280 RWHP on the gas. (can't stop it smoking the back tyre on the dyno)

As far as accidents go, I had a near fatal in 1988 that put me in hospital for 9 months (3 months in a coma) and 2 out of body experiences.
26 operations later, and a lot of scars, I wouldn't go a day without having a ride.

 

[SnakeNBake]

Bob your cruiser is beautiful. 1 word comes to mind to describe that rocket III.....EPIC.

Glad to hear you survived the bad times and are still on the bike mate!
