Well that's ok. Although I have to admit... the first time on Paul's bike riding around in a big circle, it was kind of exciting. The best was when I was sitting on the bike with him going all up these hills and it was really enjoying myself because I experienced the sort of rush they get out of riding properly through trees. However in saying that I would still ban him from getting another lol. We have no room at home for them!

I loved my bucket! I raced a honda 150 4 stroke.. well it was a honda engine yami frame and ducati seriani forks :P but it was the best fun... just haven't been able to get back into it, the bike still needs a bit of work and i would love to put the fearing on it but as it stands the bike weighs about 50kg and i weigh 50kg so its a good ratio hehe :P Im not very mechanically minded but my dad knows heaps! so if you need any advice let me know, he does some pretty tricky stuff, He races with Queensland early motorcycle sports club on a BSA gold star which he built from scratch by himself he is very talented. But goodluck... its so much fun i hope to get back into it one of these days when i have less fear....

mmmm 150cc I think I'd prefer 4 stroke, but 2 strokes are simpler to rebuild. whatever I can find really.. thats the goal. I gotta get these 2 bike projects GONE first though. which doesnt help that I was removing one of the front disc brakes on the yammy.. and 3 of the 6 bolts holding the disc onto the wheel were rusted apart... and subsequently broke off inside the threads |

from my point of view... i can sit at a race meet all weekend and majority of bikes with problems are the 2 strokes... plus they are loud and they stink... 4 stroke will run beautifully all weekend they sound great, have better control on the corners coz they done hit power ban half way through and i actually think they are easier to fix... and think they must do better in different conditions... but thats me and i have always loved and ridden 4 strokes my whole life :P

well I despise 2 strokes for the annoyance of keeping them running well... but they do make good power. and are easy to rebuild. I'd love a CB150 or 175 :x

oh snap, maybe I should have read the motolite rules a bit better. I can have a 200 single as long as it has a 28mm carb. I would be buying a brand new mikuni carb anyway. mmm reliability.
