    My 2 newest toys

    Hey everyone, just thought I'd show off my 2 newest additions to the fleet. I've had the '86 Big Red for a few months now, but it is finally done and rideable. I just need a RH side cover and OEM decals and she's all finished.

    Item #2 is a 1992 Z50 I scored off a buddy for a whopping $50. He just moved into his first house and the previous owners left this little guy behind to rot on its side in a shed out back. After a lot of TLC and elbow grease I got it back in working order. I clocked this little thing at 42 MPH on a closed road lol.

    They are both a blast being my first 250 and 50 (the rest of the collection are all 200's). For some reason I almost like the little 50 more because I look like such a goon riding it!

    Thanks. I got the BR pretty cheap too for $400. I love my Honda fleet. Next weekend I am going on vacation to Michagan and I am bringing all the toys with me, I plan on getting a big "family photo" with them all together.

    I just wish the pics turned out better. My camera takes $hitty photos at dusk; they always turn out blurry for some reason.

    Thanks guys for the compliments. I love the Z, but I do not plan to mod it at all since I want to leave it as bone stock as possible. The only "mods" I've done to it was make a new kill switch and bracket since the original was broken and I removed the baffle to give it a little more "rumble", lol.

    To harryredtrike; we are in a small town called Bangor, just a bit southwest of Paw Paw. I hear rumors of dunes about an hour north of South Haven where atv's are permitted. Is that true? We are in a rural enough area where we just ride power line and wooded trails.

    Oh God yes, Silver lake, you do not want to be as close as Paw Paw and NOT hit Silver Lake. I would have to say that it is the most popular place in Michigan. Although I have never been, I would like to. You will see alot of trucks and buggys there too. From what I have been told they have dune, trails, hill climbs, etc.

    Big goon on a Z50, lol. I remember when I was little and my grand father would jump on my Z20 and ride it to the mail box about 100 yards away for the house. It used to piss me off but hearing that and thinking back make my laugh.
