I want one, but what is the lifespan of a bike like that? and what is the price?
Just like a 2 stroke dirtbike, it has to be serviced, refreshed or rebuilt every so often. The best thing to do especially with one of these bikes is to keep a log of how much time you have on the bike. There are a number of people in the area that race and/or ride 2 stroke GP machines. I want one.
 
So is it $7k or $19K?! Don't tease me like that!!
 
Get a new one for next year. They're all sold out this year. All you have to do is wire 21k to the broker and wait 6 fucking months. Then one day.. This will appear in your garage..
 
And that is for sale Brian?
 
I concur, I am getting rid of two more bikes when I have a chance to take the pics and get them posted.

EX250 and ZX12R are going, hope to replace with a RS250 Cup, and an R6 or 06-GSXR6. Track only, of course.

I think I am done with the street until it is time to get a geezer glide or a gold wing.

Young Nick is tempted by the darkside....

Try this one.

It hasn't changed since 2003 and I'll sell it to you for 15k with everything 2smoke related that I own.
No offense Brian, I have nothing against the Yamaha, but I'm more of a Honda fan. Regardless. Where does one purchase a GP machine these days? All the web sites I have seen say "sold out".


Pretty cool they give you all the spares.

Only other thing you need is a spare set of wheels for rains.

Engine Spares:
Cylinder Assemblies
Crank Assembly
Pistons / Piston Rings
Bearings
Clutch Plates
Reed Valves
O-Rings, Cylinder Gaskets, Oil Seals, etc.
Body Spares:
Disk pads (front & back)
Washers & assorted fasteners
 
can you ever be at capacity?
That is a close and personal friends garage. Tom has every toy you can imagine and he rides the shit out of his bikes also. The cool thing is he is 70 years old and run laptimes quicker than most. I think he showed Rob the fast line around Jennings this last month when we went down. His bikes are cleaner and nicer than the ones in the Barber museum. Here is a pick of him and Jenya down at Jennings GP. He is the nicest guy I hve ever met.
