Just added this Yamaha Tenere 700 to my stable. Was too cold in the garage do I rolled it into my basement to install the crash bars and heated grips. Now I am ready for some dirt road action, so to speak.
Thanks it’s the Allman Brothers album cover “Back Where it All Began “
You've got some good tastes, my man. I've got an 18 also but in Wicked Red.
I bet that thing is a blast.
Yeah, 950 v twin dirt bike with a ridiculous amount of swingarm travel, 4 foot whoops no problem, sugar sand no problem, small mudd puddle, problem(inside joke).... lol
I used to have a harley davidson factory 2nd quality bike.
The morons in the factory turned the engine 90 degrees , at least the exhaust headers were now better cooled, but it stank of pizza and garlic.

I always wanted an early 80's CB1100, but this does the job, nicely! It's Honda's last air cooled street bike.
2013 CB1100

I bet they also pried the cylinders apart by another 45 degrees to get rid of that famous HD vibration.
I rode them for several years. Might still own one but for the unavailable aftermarket parts / accessories.
Getting ready to leave for an Iron Butt Ride.
Saw a nice one yesterday, no idea what model, Pale blue colored tank. Had a great sound while sitting at the light. When he dropped it in gear and took off good sound but not 45' V-Twin good sounding.
Added another pony to the stable. Actually, it's more like a clydesdale. Guaranteed to put a smile on your face with every twist of the throttle
Pretty soon 4 stroke pipes are going to look like 2 strokes!
I am just about to wrap up the trail bike i built for this summer. I have a brand new seat but my cat likes getting on the bike and i just gave up and let him have the old one while its not being ridden. Its a 2001 ktm 250 sx with every bell and whistle. Lectron carb, fmf gnarly pipe and turbin core 2. V2 carbon reeds, weisco piston, dirt tricks chromoly zircon coated rear sprocket, iron man front sprocket, 12 oz flywheel weight, regina z ring chain. I have a 650r super twin but people dont pay attention on the road anymore, i prefer the dirt these days.
2007 Suzuki GSXR 600 the day I bought it and the wife testing it out in the driveway back at the house. Eventually did a little work to it. Figured while I was searching for old photos of things that go fast I’d throw a few of my 2003 Mach 1 Mustang with custom SLA front suspension, Maximum Motorsports chassis and rear suspension, Baer Race 6 piston brakes, MMR aluminum racing block bored over with custom cams and ported heads. Custom ported Eaton supercharger and intake elbow. I’ve since added some areo to make it stay planted by way of Carter’s Customs front and rear splitters and fender vents.
If you can’t tell I really like blue and black!!! Both of my sons are obsessed with racing. I wish I had the time and the funds to get them into either dirt bike racing or karting. Hopefully I’ll own some land soon and we will be able to ride on our own property. Any chance they get to ride a dirt bike it’s hard to pry them off it. Apple doesn’t fall far from the tree as they say.

There was a time my garage was without a doubt my happy place....
Gonna cull one out of the heard, I hate to, but it just sits.
That’s what I remember the garage looking like as a kid!!! That’s what a garage is supposed to look like. Bikes on one side and cars on the other.There was a time my garage was without a doubt my happy place....
The high speed cross-country limo back in 1996....
The cross-country/desert race bike in 1984-86. M-Star 500 (Maico).
What is the intended purpose?
General fucking around....not looking to break speed records or crush continents....
With the tw200 ide probably end up doing some light wheeling, but weekend cruising is going to be my primary purpose
10k will get you a CRF450L. My son bought one, pretty nice!

I got this 185 yamaha desert racer from a barn collapse. Ebay has almost made it complete again. Just needing a few parts. I think the quick change wheel system is just killer and its why i drug it home. That maico is a drean machine.
I want a TW before I die. Looks like a great RV/camper bike due to it's all terrain, i.e. snow, capabilities. I have yet to ride one but they look like a hoot and somewhat comfortable. Take a look at the Honda Grom. I bought one when they first came out and it was a ton of fun to ride around and explore. I'd do one or two miles on the interstate to connect roads but that's pushing it. I could get it up to 75 in a tuck but it's just too small. City and side roads rule though. Second best RV/camper bike.
