Devon Fox Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 Honda MTX ..... what a machine! Jacked it up, stinger tail pipe, 80cc kit, power reeds ..... good to 50mph with the wind, eventually blew it up on the way to college. Cracking fun, i was the man (or so i thought on it ) The lads with the fizzes were the ones to beat, f15e i think they were called, like gold dust they were and used to shift!

Gordon R Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 500 Norton - think it was an ES2. Had to send for Jimmy Nuttall from down the road to start it - I was 13 and could not kick it over. He always left me with " don't stall it" - which I usually did. Rigid back end, which was a bit bumpy on the local field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
