Title: Show us your Reto MXer!
Post by: E74 on October 10, 2010, 07:27:22 pm
Thread to show off your retro MX'er or one you wish you had, I know it the norm for some of you guys but for us guy's in NSW it's all too exciting.

Here is one I own.

they are both '89 models, I actually know where one of those 89 Mugen 125's is, just trying to come to terms with how much it is... :-X

The Husaberg is an '89 model? Really?
Why don't you put this thread over in the retro site. Then the old farts like TMBill won't get his knickers in a knot. Now Bill have your glass of warm milk and get Val to get your slippers. That will calm you down!

worry not TM Vilhelm ;) I can't see the problem either ::) the TS90MX is definately retro, it's MX and there certainly is someone who wishes they owned it :)

I'd like it myself but I'm not talking about me ;)

Yep Brad it's an 89 model, I purchased it from Dave Clarke in the UK a couple of years ago in anticipation of pre '89 racing evolving, here is the brochure from that year. It should be an absolute weapon once I get the reso finnished.

 I will move this over as soon as I get signed up and work that new forum out.... ???

The big argument was they aren't vintage, now they are not retro. Bloody hell!
Looks like your bike has one too many rear shocks and the exhaust seems to be broken as its hanging down  :P

Darren, had no idea they went back that far. Very cool! BTW the retro site is basically the same as this site so its easy to work.
