    shook hands for an RS125 today

    I have no clue how to ride it, how to maintain it, or how to safely transport it. Situation excellent...am attacking!

    nice. working on one is why I never bought a 2 stroke although I'd love to ride one sometime.

    as far as towing it, pick it up, put it in the back seat of the car, put the seat belt on it and drive. you're welcome

    Thanks! I'm not sure I'll be able to make the 5/13 Penguin basic class, but if not I'll definitely make it to the 2-day in June. I'll try to wander up to the track for the next race weekend in either case.

    Really looking forward to both...buttoning up a motor (in improved condition) is a huge bucket-list item for me.

    Is that a DOT front tire?

    Knee on the ground, fairing pressing down on leg, and just hooking up from a slight two wheeled drift. Wheeee!

    Edit: negative on the DOT tire...it may have just picked up some tireballs...

    That looks like an insane amount of fun. You couldn't fall off, physically. You could part company with the bike and start sliding, but you're already on the ground. Awesome.

    It's not like it's easy to get to that level guys. They are incredibly rewarding to wrench and ride though...

    Thanks man! I figured I can always find an SV, but it's a borderline miracle that a complete 125 starter pack was available nearby and within my budget.

    Might need to borrow your username though.

    I was at Moto Market on Friday. There is one on the floor with a big FOR SALE sign on it.
