1976 Yamaha XS500 cafe project...Nearly Road Ready!!!

VM's are round slide. TM's are flat slide. VM's are cheaper and easier to find. TM's perform a little better, but are a little more modern than I'd use on these old bikes. Either way would work. But as they say; speed costs money. How fast you wanna go?

Okay, that's funny... I have a championship-level Suzuki SX4 autocross car. (Mine isn't turbo, but whatever...) Did somebody clone me, or what?

ok...please tell me your not on the club sx4 forums...

Lol I was. Then I got a bike. I figured I was done playing with the car. Lol.

I didn't know that the SX4 had a big following. My wife drives the 4x4 hatchback

Yeah, that's what I have. Stickshift. Mine has Tein springs and Sparco Drift wheels with BF Goodrich G-force sport tires. Apparently that's all it needs to go really fast on an autocross course. Lol. I still miss my '81 Celica, though. (Sorry to thread jack...)
