Swingarm is original on an MX-6
Assume its a 250 = engine is black.....
370/400 were orange
(I had a 400 Qualifier back in the 80's)

I've got a rebuilt complete engine less ignition.
It's the motor out of Speedy's late model bike conversion he did, check it out on Husky Café.
I've never used it, its in bubble wrap
$1200.00 firm (not even $1199.99)

Vinduro / Re: Pre 90 for VERi
« on: July 05, 2017, 07:51:35 pm »
Disclosure:
I'm not a Veri member.
I own Pre90 motorcycles as well as a pre 85 motorcycle.
I don't own a Toy Hauler yet, but I'm looking to get one real soon. (It'll be a f&^king big one.)
Content:
VERI rides are not competitive, they're just trail rides.
No sheep stations involved.
Old Enduro or Trail riders aren't MX riders, and we all know 'that' guy is faster because well, 'that' guy is faster than me, no matter what he rides.
I have participated in Conondale Vinduro Sprint since it started, and can report NO eligibility/whinging/whining BS to be seen anywhere at the (competitive) event.
But hey, look at dot point one.
Some / Most / All VERI rides require some form of rego......UVP or Historic rego.
Both VIC and now NSW has the 'Log Book' system for rego.
NSW is 30 years old gets you in, VIC is now 30 yrs? (not 25 yrs anymore?)
QLD'ers are nowhere, I mean are 30 yrs and no log book.
UVP's are available for any roadworthy bike.
Do people ride old bikes in SA?
FIM have rules for old bikes - cool.
MA as well - even cooler, like frozen.
I guess, clubs are started by a small group of hard working people that have the same ideas about what a bike is, what logo to have, etcetcetc
They work hard, they control the club.
Does the Club ever grow past those initial ideas? Should a club evolve?
We've seen some pretty good examples of splits / rifts / politics in clubs north of Victoria. Maybe some in Vic as well?
To me they all have one common theme, someone doesn't like a new idea from another member in the club, about what 'the' club should be.....then it starts......
So, I'm in favour of the delegated authority system - either choose the governing body of the sports idea on what an old bike is or choose the governments.
It takes all the BS out of the equation.
(I look at pre-95 bikes in QLD and don't believe they're vintage, but except the umpires decision, and it doesn't seem to lessen my riding pleasure in any way.)
Another idea would to limit eligibility to left hand kickers only with special dispensation for right hand kickers if they kick the wrong way, ie forward.
You would probably get a couple of more QLDers at Harrow for the State challenge if you were pre 90.
I'd go back in a heart beat if you'd move it closer.
Cheers
I hope I haven't offended anyone.

I'm pretty sure the twin shock liquid cooled bikes are 84.5 models.
85 models were single shock bikes (WR/XC - drum brakes, CR - Disc)
Technicalities, technicalities........speak with your local club.
Race what ever class they let you in and have fun....
Please don't destroy a nice bike...
