Re: What have you owned, or what do you own?

Just noticed this thread...

First bike, 1965 BSA650 Lightning, in 1970 in Europe. 2 minutes instruction. And I was off!
Then, a 67 Suzuki 50cc 2stroke in 1973 in Madison WI.
Third a Honda 305 Super Hawk (1965 I think) same year. Full fairing cafe racer.
A 1950 Pan Head HD hard tail chopper for a brief time in Houston.
A sweet 1974 Moto Guzzi 850T bagger in Asheville NC for 8 years.
Then a long drought. Till now.
1999 Suzuki GZ 250. Like it tons!

I would so ride that bike today. I'd have that cafe'd out faster than you could bugger a Cheshire dwarf.

Re: What have you owned, or what do you own?

I've got it sitting in my garage. It's needs a rebuild and to have most of the parts put back together. I'll get to that after I get the Midget driveable.

PS:
Are you searching Ebay for a Cheshire Dwarf or the bike?

Hey Patrick I can't help you with a 1969 T250 Hustler, but I can help you with a 1974-75 not sure which, I think a 75 Suzuki GT250. I know a guy that has it, haven't heard it run but he says it runs and it needs some work but all the body work is in decent shape.

Later

They are really sweet little bikes.
90mph and 32 horse power out of the box. Wheelies in almost any gear.
