I wonder how many people I can offend...

I'm afraid you will blend in well and only offend russians - which are not well represented in Motorrad circles anyway.
The wurst that could happen is that the latino starts climbing at 60 and falls off at 100; and then hitting a cyclist.

Finally the snow has melted a little down the lower mountain and I was able to get my new trials bike out for its first ride (and running in).

What a fantastic area to be able to play in on your trials bike!

Now that the wood is drying out a bit, I will be taking my Montesa 4RT here!

Spotted in Tokyo, a new shape CBR250RR

Would really love one of these but none seem to get imported sadly

Meh, it's missing 2 cylinders unlike the old one

Slightly different.

Going through my old paperwork and in the process of binning the majority of it. Used to have to fill the Bandit 1200 up everyday. This was in 2008. Amazing how just seeing that bit of paper brought so many memories back.

Been 10+ months since I've ridden my lil 250

This is up there as one of my favourite bikes alongside my maico 490s

Passed MOT easy put a full tank of the super unleaded stuff and then proceeded to create a blue haze all the way down my local arterial as it cleared it's lungs - Greta would've been proud

There is something special about these. They go like stink, they make everything smell and just make me feel like a teenager again

Out again but it was pretty miserable weather wise. The weather this year is a bit annoying. No rain forecast but it rains every time I go out.

Bike is running better than ever! Just want some dry roads to ride on.

Loving that, I’m tempted to buy one similar myself. Not keen on the headlight covers, but hey, each to their own. 👍🏻

I always knew it would divide people. I’ve never been 100% on it myself, sometimes I think it looks really good and others I’m not so keen. I was actually thinking about taking it off yesterday. I had the idea to go for a bit of an old endurance racer look which it sort of achieves but isn’t quite the same.

Love the sight, sound and smell of a 2T.. sod Greta I had a Kawasaki KR-1 and Suzuki RGV and loved them both. Brilliant little bikes!

It's of its time. It reminds me a bit of PB or FB blasting through France in the 90's. Not that I remember them having yellow covers over the headlights but anyway.... I hope you've got an equally ancient Dainese parka or similar to wear while riding it!
