Some serious 2 stroke MX rides!



Anyone ever ridden a dual sport with knobbies on the freeway? I did on this 2002 Honda XR650L and it’s sheer panic.

V-4 engines have gone full circle from being a popular engine configuration in the 80s, to being a sport touring engine in the 90s to being practically forgotten in the 2000s to being the preferred race engine configuration in the 2010s.What do you like about this Honda VFR?
Thanks to reader Johan Blom for pointing this one out to me.

Hi!
I was searching the web for some movies of this project ( http://feber.se/bil/art/210331/saabskal_med_viperhjrta/) a SAAB with a Viper engine… But now to the fun stuff i found which might interest you – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YvmnSiVpoH8.
As you can read in the comments “Short in bad english: A swedish motorcycle dealer bought the bikes as collectors items when they were brand new. Now, almost 20 years later, he puts them on display in his store. No, they are not for sale. :)”
So they are from the late 80s and early 90s and have been stored in their original boxes since they arrived to Sweden, and in march 2010 the were un-boxed and placed in the stores in glass cabins…

Maybe this old news but I thought let you know.
Thank Johan I had not seen this one before. It’s amazing to think that bikes like this can even exist. What an amazing find! Thanks for the information and the links!
