Man those pics need to get framed n put on the mantle right next to the family photo😂🤣🤣😂😂
That’s a great idea! I could swap it for that picture of my in-laws.  :-D😂
Perhaps I have a dirt bike addiction?

Here’s a cropped and lightened shot of the gray background. The professional pictures will have better lighting and shading, but it gives you an idea of what it will look like.

It amazes me the quality of builds that have come through this site.
It seems that every year we move the bar a little higher.
That's cool  8-)
The four stroke engine: That's one stroke for producing power and three for wearing the engine out.

Thank you Sandblaster!  I would have never even attempted to build this bike without the advice and technical assistance I got from you and other members on this site. I love this place!

Thank you reklessj! Your bike is perfect: it’s big, green, angry, and two stroke!

Sometime when you're near it, can you please snap me a picture or two of your Tecate 4.  I had one back in the day, and I really regret selling it.

I got a few of the proofs back, and the gray background picture is absolutely stunning.  I need to hold off posting it for a bit, but it will be worth it.

Will do, thought I had some on my phone but guess not!! Not sure when I'm goin back, probably when the snow is gone n got put the sleds up. Lol  then I'll have to go get my K5 to get my fix. She needs some work but hope to do a full restore on her for the man cave and the occasional rip. Still has the stock tires on her. Got it from original owner who dug it out the back of the garage when I got there. Old army bag on it had an old bell helmet rotten goggles n full leather axo boots

He who dies with most toys win!! 😂🤣😂🤣 I'm up to 10 runners and about 5 projects in the wings waiting for 💰 💰 💰
