So I finally got to really see how my double nickel trick with 10 weight fork oil works . We have no snow and ground went back to be frozen . An hour playing in ditches , jumping into and out of ditches , lots of ruts doen into my woods . Super happy with it now for sure . Even pretty high wheelies and bringing it down feels way aceptable for me . BTW I would slap on anther front end if I had one that fits. But this is my first small bike in over 20 years , maybe more . I did see if spare KLR650 would work but triple tree is way longer
Glad to read it's working out for a few of ya. ARH thanks for informing all of spring engineering concept . I was just amazed at how small it is . .

My KX125 is a 1980. The shop doesn't look like that anymore and I didn't ride that bike after that picture was taken, it lives out in the shed now. That is a first year Uni Trak. Some day I will fully restore it...

The Kawasaki KX60 was the same for so many years. It had the same gas tank design and a modified linkage. The guys at the motorcycle shop at the end of the block were working on one about a year ago. They did hot laps around the block and I couldn't report them because I wanted one more lap.

Yes, but the snow blower and lawn mower go under the shelf.

Lz.. perfectly preserved. Nice and clean and dry. The huskies can keep each other company
So many of us have said one time or another " I wish I still had that..." it will be a nice jewel when you get old ! No I don't want to here it 2lz, you aren't there yet.
