Finally took the big girl for a quick ride last week.

Bugger me!! The motor is a monster!!

It pulls everywhere and is no where near as scarry or dangerous as people have been warning me or that I had imagined. The motor is awesome. Pulls well low down. Haulls ass up top. Fat ass mid range. WTF was honda thinking not developing it past early nineties??? I did go down though, front wheel washed out from under me on a down hill. Might have hurt the shoulder more, but just could wait to give it a go. I reckon the gearing is WAY to high for single track bush riding. But thats an easy fix. I cant wait to drop it into an alloy frame. BTW has anybody out there experimented with a vortex ignition. They are aussie built but I cant find much on them. F'n Awesome motor!!!
