Street bikes, what ya got?

[speedracer170]

So I picked up a Kawasaki KE 100 2 stroke the other day (2nd bike I ever owned) and have been riding the hell out of it the past few day. So what is everyone else riding on the street?

Cody,

Dating myself more than a little bit but back when I was in high school a friend of mine had that same basic bike (100cc, air cooled, rotor valve intake). We cut the head, reshaped the combustion chamber, cut the rotor valve to change intake timing, ported the cylinder, made our own expansion chamber (great book was available back then), made an adapter to use a bigger carb, and mixed Blendzall black label (nitro) with the gas. Amazingly it lived...and was stinking fast!!! Thanks for the memories!

Cheers, Dennis

I would like to make this bike faster but don't need another money pit Paid $500 for it and been using it as a daily driver

cody -- how fast does it go? I may be interested in purchasing if you're selling when you guys take off, providing you don't keep it.

my race bike becomes my street bike in about an hour.

All of you eat a dog turd. I don't have a race bike or a street bike.

LMAO, ok lets see, got a 1999 Triumph Sprint ST along with a 2000 Triumph Sprint ST ( won as a raffle bike ) a 1998 Triumph Daytona T595 ( bought to flip once I get around to it ) and a 2002 Triumph Daytona 955 CE, 3 or 4 Scooters / Pit Bikes, a 64 Honda C100 restoration project and finally 1996 Yammie XT350. Oh and a few other project / museum bikes ( 1937 ULH Harley ), wife is not sure why I have so many laying around and neither am I sometimes, but keeps me out of the bars !!!

Hmm, both of which would make really cool projects.

[original_337]

The RZ is one of my dream bikes, so someday it'll get put together and run. The XS is bone stock and has been in my family for years. I've got a strong itch to turn it into a bobber, but can't bring myself to do it.

[Roger@Arroyo]

Street tracker, just sayin. And yeah, the RZ would be cool updated to modern specs.

As far as street bikes go, you won't find another in the USA (unless another German Air Force guy brought one over).
