Ok, ill be the ignorant one and ask "what is it?"

I know its a honda, but doesn't quite look like a hawk from that angle. Whatever it is, it does look good.

rs125

[Wishbone]

Ring a ding ding ding!!!

But wait...don't most people go from a 250 to a larger cc?

[rolker]

Thanks All! I'm so looking forward to taking it to the track. If it wasn't an almost automatic divorce to leave on a 3 day trip the day after I arrive from a 2 month trip, I'd be on my way to NJMP now!

As for going up in cc's, yeah, that's what most people would do, but I just don't seem to be one that follows the pack that much. Besides, the import thing that increased is power! It shouldn't take long before I can beat my EX250 laptimes on the RS125.

Kim, my trip to Antarctica was awesome! The scenery is unreal and the experience of being surrounded by so many whales, penguins and seals in such a location is unexplainable! It was indeed worth missing a few track days for this trip!

[The Crashing Tomato]

Schweeeeet bike .... kinda Hawk like buuuut smaller and schweeter. Wait did I just say that

Rollie you should do a caption cantest for that pic of the penguin. the results don't really matter but it would be super cool to see your rs vs the ex with wood and greenwood piloting

[rolker]

Oh, no question the rs would beat the ex.

wat the hell u doin in antartica?

[Awesome]

Honda 2 stroke for the win. We need a secret handshake or something.

[GixerJockey]

Nice Roland! That thing is awesome!


What did you do with the smoker that you brought to VIR?

I was studying humpback whales. We were attaching tags on the whales (using suction cups, so harmless to them!) to track their behavior. For those who have seen me collect gps data on the track to analyze my laps, we were doing something very similar with the whales.

That '94 belongs to the previous owner of my new '96. He let me borrow it for a few track days so I could get a feel for it. He was probably setting me up to buy this one all along!!

[Paul_E_D]

This thread is funny. Perhaps some of you guys haven't been around since I was rolling the 125 at trackdays? It's a REAL GP racebike that can smoke 90 percent of the bikes around loudon. CCs are misleading.

btw, the Hawk is essentially a street replica of the RS125.
