Vintage Club Small Bore Ride.
« on: November 03, 2022, 03:34:06 PM »
The local vintage club set up a small bore get together and ride.  I don't have a vintage bike but my ADV150 certainly qualifies as a small bore bike so I rode it to the event.

There was another scooter there:



We went for a short ride.



Taking a break.



More riding.

great pics!...and the demographic of that group seem similar to the demographic of the Kymco board?  8)

Those little Yamaha dirt bikes look exactly like the ones a few buddies of mine owned in college (and let me ride them any time, which I did, plenty!). They were 125s.

As long as they weren't looking for old, diminutive & wearisome riders?  Then again...

I owned a Honda 90, 125 and a 175. Had a blast riding them.
Yeah, I never rode on highways. No fun on those🙃 anyway.

my first bike was a '67 Honda Super 90, a real turd, every kid in town had already owned it an beat on it, it lasted the summer, before it got hungry, and ate a valve. My next bike was several years later, a '73 Honda CB125S, I put over 10k miles on it, gave it to my stepson for transportation to a job, but didn't last long before that one got hungry and ate a valve

Since then, I've been with bigger bikes, but saw the k-pipe, that reminds me so much of the old CB125S, not in looks, but how it feels
