Pretty cool reward if you ask me!

RCH did a super clean one for Roczen in 2016 too, maybe they just dismantle them or something? Damn shame. Someone should open a 2 stroke showroom!

Collecting dust and DEFINITELY NOT being ridden at all...such a shame Bec that bike was sofa-king sick! This years Red Bull straight rhythm is 2 stroke ONLY and I'm sure it's a LONG show but if James showed up, he'd have to ride a 2 stroke and there is absolutely NOTHING wrong with JS7 on a 2 stroke...be it a 125 or 250...James was a true artist on a smoker and had the 250 2 stroke remained the premier class bike I'd bet anyone that MC's SX record would've been beaten by James. He had such an advantage over everyone when they were professionally racing 2 strokes.

I knew I had the pic on my HD!

This is the actual one the one below from Atlanta was actually photoshopped. When I built the bike no one saw it outside the compound and only a few people had word of it or saw pictures of the building process. I left the compound shortly after finishing up the bike and it sat collecting dust until it went on tour with malcs graphics and sat on display at all the SX rounds that year. Still has yet to be rode though.

Thanks for that man. And huge props to you for building such an awesome piece of machinery. I can't believe something like that has been built.....and it's just sitting? What in God's name has this world come too? I sure hope the day when someone finally throws a leg over that thing.....we get some pics and videos.

I believe RV was already on his way out at Kawi, I think that was also the reason he had chrome plastics on the bike and didn't run the Kawi green ones.

As Buford T Justice would so eloquently say.... OOOOFF!

Pretty crazy that a 12 year old bike looks that good and would fit in at the track without question.

Chrome plastics were a flashy way for a legend to go out. Kawi built him a 2 stroke. Why not let him ride it? RV on any kawi is advertisement.

Anyone else think that Tomacs aggressive throttle and corner style would suit a 2 stroke well?

That is a beautiful bike! Would be cool to see him run a race on it. It would be cool to see all of the top guys line up for a charity 3 lap race on 2 strokes.
