    well, at least it's not a tractor
    The very existence of flamethrowers proves that sometime, somewhere, someone said to themselves. 'You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to get the job done.

      I've got a similar bike I took apart and cleaned up a little. This pic is before it was cleaned up. It's a 1974 honda MR 50. I still drive around on it. It's so much fun.

        I had a XR50 back in the day. The one day we drove it into a ditch full of water and supposedly seized the motor up. I think my dad just sold it so we wouldn't get hurt though and said it was seized.

        Then when I was like 11 or something he got me a TTR90. I still have it today. Runs damn good too. Hell, with a running start it'll beat my TTR125. The carb needs to be adjusted some now though because it's idling WAY too fast, musta happened when I was cleaning it out a couple weeks ago.

        I've been meaning to put a big bore kit and new pipe on it, but they're rather expensive.

          wow those heads need cleaned! carbon much?
          i would suggest sending the motor to a place that knows what they're doing and having some motor work done.

                              I know, I have read alot of dj89s threads about his tractor pulling hobby. I guess it is healthy for him to move into different activities.

                              Dang, that sounded smart.
