Congrats, Rice Tuner !!! I'm glad our rather sentimental journey through the two-stroke race proved to be of use to you. Have fun with your ride, and enjoy her responsibly.

My RD's just back from the garage today, so I feel like a born-again biker myself. Cant wait to get on her tomorrow morning, weather gods permitting.

congrats dude.Welcome to the gang(rather old maybe );-)

Rice_tuner · 2nd August 2005, 15:00

ahh...yea, the 2 stroke sure feels good...n SMELLS good too..

but the power i find is not as much as i exected it to be....i think the clutch mite be slipping, the bike revs real quick but does'nt catch pace all that quickly...

thx ppl
