Heres one of mine.
I completely built it out of parts myself, even the engine I bought all the parts separately
441cc
I had the cylinder head sent to California for the worlds top BSA tuner to work his magic, it has a megacycle cam, Carrillo rod, Black diamond valves, NEB racing clutch, twin plugs.

I bought this bike as a rusted piece of junk and spent months restoring it.

As my username says, I have a KX250, and I've been riding motorcycles since I was 13. I haven't really been riding dirt bikes much in the past 10 years; partly because I'm in my mid 40s, and just don't feel like it's as much of a thrill as it was when I was a teenage kid. Now I ride sport bikes (Sunday canyon rides, etc), and that's really my main thing for the past 10 years. I have a 1985 Honda VF1000R, which I ride occasionally, but am scared for anything to happen to it due to it's value and unavailable parts. I also have a 1986 VF1000R, as I "had to have" both years of production. The '86 is basically brand-new old stock, so I've never ridden it, as the value as a classic is far more if it's unridden and still "new" condition. It has 291 miles on it, but that's only because the dealership's owner rode it a few times in 1986. I also have a 2009 Yamaha R1, which I ride a lot. Even though the VF1000R was the dream of every sport rider, and was international championship winner in the 80s, it handles like a fishing boat as compared to the '09 R1. So I only ride that one for nostalgia and for the attention it gets. Since it was every high school kid's dream to own one when they were new, and they were expensive and hard to find even back then, everybody my age recognizes it and is envious . I also have a 1985 Yamaha V-Max, which is a cruiser/muscle bike, but I don't really ride that one at all due to constant problems with it, and being a cruiser, it's not any fun in the canyons. Probably I'll sell it this year; had it for about 5 years and had my fun with it.

This one is my '86 VF1000R, which is "brand-new", and is in my living room unridden. It's identical to the '85 which I referenced above...

Ha!, must be an Aspie thing, my above bike is next to me in my bedroom, whilst the following is in my living room
