Give us a complete run down on that build please? Interested in the Marty Tripes series as it appears to be a shit ton of fun. I've been helping a friend out with one, supplying him a core bike to start with. He's building a long rod, short stroke, 150cc slipper piston'd high revving CL100(?) 4 stroke and putting it in a 74 CR125 chassis.

Well Its a 1972 dkw 125 hornet frame/ with a 2009crf150r triple, forks, caliper,master cylinder. Cut the steering stem off and machined one for the new front end.a crf250r front wheel and hub with rotor. a 1999 rm125 front fender. The motor is a 1975Yamaha mx125b bottom end with a 100 top end. custom exhaust with a FMF shorty muffler Dslide Keihen 28mm. the rear sub frame is all new custom to fit the custom 4130 swing arm.with Elka stage 5 quad shocks meant for the front of a Yamaha banshee. I shaped the seat and made a mold for a pour foam custom seat. The rear hub is a rm 85 with a 19" 2001 cr 125 rear wheel. Rear brakes are rm85. rear fender 1999 rm 80. bike weighs 185lbs with a 8lb DKW steel gas tank. I did plenty of home work to come up with this bad boy racer.
The rules of the Marty Tripes 100 works revenge are as follows:
VINTAGE WORKS-75 and earlier, No water cooled motors 100cc two stroke/ 150cc 4 stroke motor and frame must be pre 75. Maximum travel 7 inches front and back. disk are allowed. fuel open.
FACTORY WORKS 75-83. No water cooled motors 100cc two stroke/ 150 4 stroke motor. Motor up to 83 and like motor such as xr100 motors ok. Frame up to year 1983 open on travel and brakes.
The most fun you can have period. Gates of over 40 100cc bikes. two rider classes CLASS A= NOV/INTER CLASS B= EXPERT/ PRO.
Regulary race against. ex pros. Jim Gibson, Mike Beier, Scott Burnworth, Ron Turner, Tommy Croft, Bruce Mcdugell to name a few. Come out to So Cals best tracks. The Ranch (Carlsbad replica track), Lake Elsinore, Glen Helen REM, Barona, all supported by CMC. Race with the new breed of factory bikes where the sky is the limit you can be creative trying and failing at your own ideas. Marty is the best.
They won't let us run disc brakes in vintage classes around here, and it pisses me off!

Beautiful bike.

The 500 is more of what I would call a beast, but they're both pretty manageable if you're just riding around, which I usually am. The engine breaking on the 450 is nice for a lazy rider like me, and I find I can ride the 450 a little longer before tiring. The rear end also has a habit of breaking loose on the 500, makes it a little sketchy for a spode like me! Love them both, though.

Beautiful bike.
That's not "vintage class" though. Specifically for the Marty Tripes 100cc class which has it's own rules. Allows people to get creative and build really cool shit to go have fun on. With only 100cc, it has to be about fun because there are definitely no factory rides in any of these guys future!Smile

That bike is really f'n cool.

Lots of nice bikes in this thread, nice to read for a change.

Here's mine. Countless hours of work on this thing, both manual and mental. Lots of details.

You know you have it good when you make the ol' lady do the laundry on the back porch to have room for the bike(s) inside!Wink
Laughing Hell yeah, the garage is my last place of peace and quiet at the house since I live with 3 girls (wife and two daughters). She can keep all her shit out of the garage. The only bummer is that I promised her I would build an enclosed patio where the washer and dryer is......yeah, we'll see when that actually happens.

Honestly, the Husky two-strokes are fucking sexy. Four strokes, not so much, but those two-strokes just look bad ass. Love the pipe on the 300... or is that the 144? The one on the right. I'm guessing the 144 has the shortly muffler.

lol hey I wanted to try them all man.. I rode Honda since 1986 with a few other brands here and there but mostly Honda . In 2010 is when I went on my quest to see what 450 I liked the best. I liked the 350 and this Honda the best and also love 2strokes, id like to get a 03-06 CR 250 to rebuild . Im over buying bikes ill keep the Honda for a few years and will probably stay on Honda.

You guys and your clean bikes with all the goodies on them.

Bone Stock except for maybe the grips.


Truth be told I had to unload my bike to get ready for our first child. Now that he is older, it's time to get a bike again. All these cool bikes you guys are posting is getting me excited..

I think this was right after I bought her. When I sold it, the guy that bought it said it was for his brother in law who had never ridden anything bigger then an 80 and it sounded like the guy barely knew how to ride. I'm sure it got hammered on.
