I got this kinda already "bastardized" so I did what I could with it. If I remember correctly it has a titch over 20K miles on it. Kick start only (starter has been removed). Starts easily, runs great....no problems with the bike short of leaky fork seals....spot of rust here or there and...

Thats a 1979 Suzuki JR50. They made them from 1978 - current. The body styling has changed over the years but alot of the parts interchange. Ive got maybe $300 in that bike....and it runs just great. The other little yellow dirt bike is a 2003 Suzuki JR50. There were a few styles in...

Yep....I ride them all, even the little pink 4 wheeler at times :) All those bikes you could jump on, turn the gas on....hit the key and ride off anywhere you wanted to. Everything functions, works as it should....all are VERY roadworthy.....all have good tires etc. Its rough to keep them...

It works well enough, I dont ride if far or often. The little Honda CBs are, well, little.....and Im 6ft4in and weight 320lbs.....so its definitely not a long distance ride....but its VERY light and flickable and fun to ride out around the lake. Its sounds far meaner then it is.....that...

Yeah...I built em. The VStar was my project from the start....it was bone stock when I bought it. The other bike is an old KZ440....I bought someone elses projects....finished it up and put a few touches on it. The VStar really doesnt have much work done....basically remove the fenders.....an...

Ive posted pics of my ratty budget cafe racer before....but I recently tossed on some el cheapo ebay clubmans, along with some genuine Italian grips (says so right on them, honest injun - hey, it makes me feel important) and some white vinyl racing stripes....which I also scored from ebay then...

Its getting kinda tight in there if your working on a few things....but its my home away from home. Also snagged some manufacturer race banners for the back wall.....still need a Honda one but they arent very cheap, not atleast where Im looking.

Nice old Kaw....I got a couple of KZs myself. My first ever bike....still have it (actually Ive never sold a bike, have them all) - 1980 KZ1000 LTD My rat bob.....1981 KZ440 belt drive. This thing actually hauls pretty hard considering its small displacement. Dig your KZ, keep it up.

Id love to have an old Triumph....but they are hard to find in my area and command a premium when you do find one. I was wanting a cafe racer for my collection. So this is what I ended up with.....its kinda rough and lacks the "correct" bars for a true cafe racer but these bars work well and...
