Post by: eno on January 16, 2008, 09:14:45 am: First week of my summer holidays my son & I finally finished project XR200, 1980 RU model, last of the twin shockers, wadda sweet lil' bike!
So we set out to do some trail riding - just like the old days on my old stomping grounds. I've also got a mid 70's DT100 so that was my ride along with my 6 yr old boy perched up front - he likes to see ahead & hold the handlebar cross brace. We had a lot of fun trailing around in the summer sun, maybe more so than motocrossing that old beast of mine.
That little DT has got the most split personality I've ever seen in a bike, happy just to slog up the narliest hill(two up) then wind it open on some long flat stretch & she just screams like there's no limit(nothing escapes my shed without a little porting etc...).

There's a lot to be said for the little things in life counting for more & having fun on old trailies is one of them.

Post by: firko on January 19, 2008, 09:40:58 am: This Suzuki TS90 was to be our pitbike for CD5 but other projects knocked it out of the way. The engine has been rebuilt so all it needs now is to put it back together. No resto on this one. It's staying as is only cleaned up a bit. I've always had a soft spot for Honchos. I've got a TC100 as well.

Post by: Nathan S on January 24, 2008, 10:47:25 pm: How did I miss this thread until now?

Lots of memories of these bikes - all the stuff that was dirt cheap in the 1980s: CT90/125, SL70/100/125, DT125, DT80, XL75/100, CL100 (or was it 90?), YG1, V90 step-through:D, etc.

I've got a TS90 in the shed, along with Doc's SL100, and my AT1 shitter and my AT2 project - but I really want a DT100 (one of the 'full-size' ones). Seems that everytime I find one, it's in triple-buggery, I'm broke or the Ebay seller is a cock-smoker...
There's also one of each of the three main incarnations of DT175s and the VMX-spec DT125A and CT1, but I think Tim's talking more about the smaller capacity, trail-bike trail-bikes.

Here's a pic of the AT1 when I bought it:

And this is the AT2 as it was a couple of months ago. Work has been embarassingly slow - it now has forks and a front wheel, and one rear shock...

Post by: Tim754 on January 25, 2008, 04:48:47 pm: Sub 200cc is what I was sort of "on about" you are correct Nathan. After that you get into IT or KDX 200s and they were (and still are) pretty shit hot stuff, and of course 250cc + are not really small bore in traily terms. The piccies so far are just the sort of boys (girls too) dream bikes we all had or craved with a passion. Cheers Tim
