Reader Two-For-One And An Update On A Previously Posted Tracker.


Mike C Writes in with a nice Wanderlust Ducati and an unfortunate update on his wicked SR500 Tracker!

I had a look at some recent snaps thought you might like this for your ‘ Wanderlust ‘ bit.
It was taken a few weeks back by my buddy Rick H. outside of Rangely Lake NH.
The bike is my ‘ 98 748 with an 853 kit (among other mods) and 106,000km. on the clock.
The photo gives no warning of the hour and a half I would be sitting in bumper to bumper traffic, in the pouring rain, later that day.
Sadly my countershaft sprocket chewed the splines on the shaft, and broke the chain sending it through my engine cases just two weeks ago. I was thinking of opening the motor, just for fun, this winter anyway. Looks like I have some quality time in the garage over the next little while.


Oh, and more distressing news. My SR managed to ‘ shed ‘ its rear tail/subframe due to vibration…I am already McGyvering a tail from a Honda RS250 roadracer onto the mighty SR….Hey, I start shooting paint tomorrow !
Thanks for the site, I check in every day & always get a charge checking out the new postings.

Here’s the link to his original post on the SR.

Great Stuff.  Thanks Mike and sorry for the delay in getting it posted. I’m getting flooded lately.  All good!

Reader Ride… Old School CZ from the Czech Republic!


James From Czechoslovak sends in his oldschool  CZ 175 1962 dirtbike.

He writes in:
Hi, my name is James and I come from the Czech Republic. I love old bikes and retro style. I prefer motorcycles manufactured in Czechoslovakia (Jawa, CZ). I really like your site. Every day, like watching pictures of bikes all over the world. I decided to also donate their bike. Not original, but built of scrap to ride the terrain around my home.

This is my CZ 175 Type 450 of 1962, adjusted for oldschool dirt bike. He has lots of adjustments for off-road driving. The engine has increased power from 10hp to 15hp, weight is + / – 100kg .

I love the old Jawa/CZ.  Some of the best looking engines built and they go like mad!  Still miss my old CZ250 dirtbike.  Scary scary motorcycle but oh so fun!

Reader Ride. A CR85 Motard Road Racer.


Reader Kieth Montgomery has been sending me all sorts of interesting rides. Here’s what looks to be a VERY fun Honda CR85 Mini Motard.

Update Request: Can the owner please contact me. A moto Morini Flattracker.


Pete Giammalvo (or anyone who may know him)  if you’re reading this can you please contact me.  I received a request from someone to publish these pics of your bike and I’d like to put you in touch with him to work out any permissions.  Thanks!

Reader Pete Giammalvo sends in thise pics of what I believe to be a really cool Moto Morini flattracker. I’m also guessing that it’s a 3 1/2 (or 350) model.

Thanks Much Pete!


Rick Peters and I have been having a back and forth on this bike for a while now.

Rick I’d still like to see some before pics if you get a chance so i can add them to the post.  I like it a lot! The paint job is the bomb and those rims must have takes some serious mods to fit.  I can think of a few mountain roads whee this bike would be the bomb!

Hello,

How are you doing? Just want to share our latest work. The donor bike is an Suzuki EN125, and the owner wanted a two-seater that could go through the rain (he meant some useful fenders :D), and he also wanted to change the frame and the seating position, so we change the footpegs position and gave him a taller bar. The tank is fron an old Suzuki GP125, and the battry box is a modified Suzuki A100 carb filter box. The fenders are customized honda CB100’s. No major works withthe suspensions. As always (been too busy to set up new blog/site! 🙂 ) you can check the building process here ( http://www.facebook.com/gifny.richata#!/album.php?aid=27446&id=115078248506795 )


Have a nice day!!
cheers,
