Well, today after performing micro surgery on a broken wire on a knock sensor on our V8 Lexus, we decided to sit on the patio and watch the local hills burn up.

I scored a Honda Passport for 100.00 with electric start and a Title. Today I removed the top end so I can install a new big bore kit n exhaust.
Ive been ordering lots of parts from webike in Japan,,, it’s kinda odd they sell all of the same parts sold in the USA like 88 cc kits, that Chinese exhaust pipe and many other parts sold here...But their prices are nearly 2/3rds CHEAPER than US Suppliers. Not only that my packages usually arrive within 1 week, shipping is not that bad either. The discounted price of their parts makes up for the faster shipping cost.
I paid less than 200 for my 88cc big bore kit which includes the head and cam.... T bolt USA and other vendors charge over $500.00 for a similar kit. That exhaust was around $40.00, in the states it’s 80.00 plus $54.00 shipping.
Some parts like the seat cover and battery I just used eBay cause they were not too much. I’d like to swap the transmission out for a 4 speed and install a stroker crank but I don’t have the time to do all that right now.
Glad to hear you've had a good experience with them. I've been eyeing webike for RZ parts.

I used to think my bike collection was too big until I met a real hoarder.... I went to go look at a 2 stroke mini & this guy had a huge barn with at least 200 bikes packed in tight! So now I feel like a noob all over again, lol. When I get my endorsement next year Ill start getting some bigger bikes.
Not at the auctions anymore because they are so old but a friend of mine has 2 of them that he would sell. I did testing on those as well which was fun.

No, that would have been much bigger. It was actually started by some retard riding in the local OHV park. He crashed into a tree and his bike kept running with the throttle stuck open while it was leaking gas and the gas ignited. It burned up the entire park.

Spent Saturday in baldwin Michigan doing some single track riding on our mx bikes for my buddies batchelor party. Was a riot, 7 of us and not a single injury!
I've been working a little practice track in my back 5. I cut the weeds with my 42" rider, then used a disc harrow and drag behind my quad to get it to this point. It's been very wet lately, so it was a muddy first ride on the Z. I cant wait for the track to dry out so i can drop this thing 6" and toss the hoosiers on it. I'll add some small TT jumps in the spring.

Well today I needed to get a spark plug boot for the police bike I recently bought and found a salvage yard near me that had one and has around 200 motorcycles mostly indoors with a few old bsa's triumphs monetssa's bultacos, and even a sears bridgestone etc. It was very cool. Unfortunately the only camera I had with me was on my flip phone so the photo sucks.
