aaah another who likes 2stroke triples

Strika
I had the famous Kwak 500cc triple but when it came time to upgrade
I thought the Suzi 750 'bottle' had it all over the Kwaka version
so I bought one of those 'murderous' mudderbykes
in fact
the Kwaka 500 triple was better than the larger 750cc version
...imho of course
and thats why I want anuvver one in my garage

cheers

Recent perusals thru classic bike mags is demonstrating a resurgence in those two stroke triples. The 750 has been sought after for some time, and now the 500's are really good property. The 350's have not yet peaked, so they would be a great option as a restorer. However, the 500 and 750 still give me those tingles, and If one came my way at the right money, I would grab it with both of my grubby little hands!!!

But that Cagiva 500 would be a definate for the odd occasional track day when a motor rebuild was affordable Imagine lapping the Island on that little red Rocket!!!

I remember riding a SBK in 1996 ( a full local factory jobbie) and that put out prolly 140-150 at the wheel and would wheelspin onto the straight!! Imagine what that peaky little red Cagiva would do........Bahahahaha! I don't reckon I would stop laughing for a week!!

Mmmm Ribs are getting better by the day Neka! Even managed some bedroom gymnastics last night. The wife was a bit pissed off when she caught me though!

I don't know about a dream Garage, but currently mine has...

2003 Kawa ZXR636 minus a Akrapovic can with some bits of raceglass on it that I didn't scratch/crack from QR lowside Queens B'day weekend...

2006 Suzuki DRZ400E that I bought on Thursday to do skids & spinnys on the dirt...

1998 Hunda CR250 MXer that needs an engine rebuild....

1980 Hunda CT90 that needs the tyres pumped up & maybe some general TLC...

1992 Ford Courier ute for dump runs & general town useage

1997 Nissan 200SX with a few minor mods....

1988 Mongoose Californian Pro BMX in pieces....

Lots of dirt, Leaves, a few carpet & u'lay offcuts to add comfort to my butt on the concrete...

Tins of paint, Bags of concrete, about 8 sheets of 6mm F/C sheeting & a rubbish bin for my 5 year clean outs....

My (3) dogs when it's too cold for them outside....

I'd want a mix of 2 and 4 strokes
2 strokes, a triple with performance chambers, a gp rep and a motox
4 strokes, a mighty zxr1200 with a few upgrades, a K1200GT for the long rides with the girl and a R1200GS for the trip up to Lake Eyre or along the Gunbarrel Hwy

mate..i wasnt talking abt the current status of ribs..i was talking abt the future status of the ribs if u had a 500gp 2 stroker....

might as well get all ribs removed now..save u breaking em every high side...and surely thered be other side benefits....mwahahahaha

if i could swap/trade the rm for a klx400 and the zeph for a zrx11/12 that would do me.

although a zxr750r track bike - robbie phillis's TKA bike from 94 would do nicely
