I owned motorcycles prior to having kids and never crashed. But all of the guys I rode with did. Buried 2 of them. I would get a cruiser bike for touring. I had an RM 370, Harley Hog (Willie Davidson is my cousin), a triple 500 Kawi H1R, a triple 750 Kawi, and a 250 Yami. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gets dangerous sometimes Maybe just tell me who to piss off and what to say and I'll do it for you We don't need you getting into any trouble Most of the sled trails are 8-9 feet wide.

I lost a couple friends to Bikes, and I know what you mean, many of my friends drank and drove and got hurt or killed. It's easy to get sucked in.

I could do a 10 second 1/4 mile on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm trying to be more selective about my groups these days. There are some people I absolutely will not ride with. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might have been a 1000, so long ago I don't recall, in the 1980's sometime. I had 1 of those for a very short time, it was Grey in color, wife at the time made me sell it.

I want to start with a 4 door Canyon/Colorado. Coilovers and 44" AG's. Something that will go through the bumps good and still get through the mud OK. I'm just looking for a decent donor right now. I barely missed a donor a few weeks back but I was out of the country. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pic I found just says Kawasaki on the tank, seat is a 1 seater and flat, Bike has a squared off look, called my buddy who thinks it was a GPZ 1000, I only had the thing for a couple months, maybe 3 months.

AKIQPilot Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 The TJ is coming out good. Just needs a few more things and it will be done. It's my brothers rig. We will have it complete and rolling out the door by Wednesday. Just waiting on a couple more parts to show up in the mail. W/E coilovers. Front and rear steer. Double ended ram. 116" wheelbase. My brother, my Nephew and I built that rig in about 12 days. I did very little except consult and help with the transmission swap. It was a manual and we swapped in an AW4.

Yea. You have to build a jeep right or they are major trouble in the woods. It's no fun trying to get a 6000lb rig out of the woods when it only has 3 tires on the ground. Two different rigs from last summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost but not quite with these little buggies. With the big buggies on 60" tires you are spot on. We have to lift the truck to the ceiling then put a jack under the axle to get the tire off the ground. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
