Hello all! I have a 1965 yamaha ya6 125 that Ive got back on the road. I did an engine swap and hooked everything back up as it was. So I thought... The bike runs and rides great but the starter will stay running even after you kill the engine and take the key out of the ignition. I had to...

So I have been wanting to get a dirt bike for some time now and came across a 1982 honda xr250r for sale locally with 16,000 miles on it. He is asking $1200 OBO. It is titled and he says it runs/rides great. I have never ridden dirt before...only street. I'm thinking a 250 is a good start for...

Hello all...So I picked up a 1980 kz440 on the cheap. I removed the stock front and rear wheel/hub set up and replaced the front and rear wheels with a 1979 honda cm400 mag wheel set up. The reason I did this is because I like the look of the mag wheels and the tires that are on the mag set up...
