I raced a Hodaka 100 at 14, CZ 250 at 16....Don't get me started.
Man I loved dirt bikes too. At 8 I was on a 50cc Bronco, then a 120 Suzuki, then a 250 Kawasaki trials bike, then my big mistake. Thinking I was better than I was a bought a 360 WR Huskivana (bad spelling). Well it rained the first day I had it and on the second day I flipped it over end for end in 5 th gear with me landing on my neck (no damage) to me. The handle bars smashed into the gas tank holding the throttle floored blowing up the engine. Luckily I had the case welded and I rebuilt it. I babied it for a week and while flying down the road about 80 mph with a studded rear tire and he engine locked up. The rearend went hard right then hard left as I pulled it the clutch in. I sold it shortly after that. Lol
First buzz was Watkins Glen. Was in my mom's belly. That's where she said I got my buzz.
Buzz killer was my friends GSXR750. Borrowed it and proceeded to go 260 KPH down a 2 way street on the strips with a posted speed limit of 50KPH. Was tucked in behind the wind screen and decided to sit up straight. My moron move made me go into a speed wobble and almost crashed. This was during lunchtime traffic!!!!!
Drove it back to my place at 20 KPH and gave it back to my friend.
Never got on a motorcycle again.
