Started out on a 5hp Mini Bikewhen I was 6 then my brother took the motor out and put it on a old three wheeled Granny bike until we wrecked that. Then I had a RM 125 and a YZ 250. Miss those days!!!

Honda KX80 4 stroke - great little bike, loved it.
Kawasaki KDX 80 2 stroke (self mixing - so it sucked and had no power band - just smoked like a 2 stroke without the power)
Suzuki RM 80 race bike (2 stroke)- this thing was a monster.
Suzuki RM 125 race bike (2 stroke) - Big brother to monster...was insanely fast. Like beat cars down the side of the highway leaving a 10 foot fish tail of dirt behind me fast.
Saw some *****..lost interest got a car anda job...
...sux.
