I don’t think I have been this excited about a bike in a long time. The older I get the lazier I get, and not having to change oil and air filters is a big plus in my book. Picked it up from SMS Racing in Denton Texas on Saturday, so of course in rained all afternoon and night. First ride later in the week.
I am actually going to do what everyone has brought up about electric motorcycles, and that is build a track in the city. I have 50 acres in the Garland Texas that will be surrounded by a forest preserve with a walking trail, two apartment complexes and a senior living development. The track can be hidden with trees, but I can’t hide the noise. I believe this is the solution.

I just don’t think I’d be able to handle a silent SX. Have fun with that bad boy....looks like a blast
p0wn, please let me know how the EX works out for you.
But we need to find a way to make these bikes more affordable for common folks. Perhaps the Japanese OEMs will offer e-bikes in the 8K range.
The idea of ripping around a BMX-style track right near work/homes/bars would be a hoot.

BTW, Nice Bultaco (and Husky. and Hodad) in the background. '73 350 Pursang?
By the way, graduated from Tech so we probably were at the same races for a few years.
Sometimes what happens in Vegas follows you home. I was at the Mecum auction in January and bought some bikes for a restaurant I am starting plans for that will be located on the site with all the other projects.
Rickman Zundap with 1.4 miles on it, Husky, Hodaka and the '73 Bultaco 250 Pursang. Somehow I also ended up with a Ducati. WTF do I need with Ducati (sometimes I don't think things through).
It’s great to see someone do what some of us dream about- build a mx track in an urban area.
increases substantially, One hit to the head and you could get a bleed. Doh!!

That is a 1975 360 CR from Tom Reese's Moto Armory. I have been invited to tour the Armory and make some buys, so this one might be able to be pried away from me if he is interested in a '75.
