ya everyone is importing cars these days. Too bad their all right hand drive. When we bought the RX-7 it was the third one in wpg, now there are a ton, but only a few are left hand drive.
Nice car ben, but if you get bored with it I could use that motor for the Silvia I'm gonna build.

ya its just out of our house. so your one of those people that just pins it down the middle of the road on a quad? for some reason the dirtbikes have no problem going on the grass but every quad feels the need to stay on the road and go way to fast where cars could pull out at any time. (dont get me wrong...i used to do it to. i won my first and only motorcycle race down that road vs a guy who has been riding and racing MX for years. but its retarded and just to stupid so i quit that)

I used to always go down the floodway but now that its under construction I have to take the road. I'm not going to lie, I go pretty quick down roads but I'm not stupid when I do it. I'm always watching for cars, kids, pets, ect and I always give cars the right away.

the only benefit is that u can tell people you have a right hand drive car lol. passing cars on a single lane road will be really tuff cuz you can barely see around cars (a skyline in sask killed a entire family in a mini van cuz he flew into the other lane to pass and didnt see them coming at him) so in a little while i am going to mold a back up camera into my left side mirror facing forwards so i can see cars comnig at me on a small screen in the dash. till then, im just gonna be really really careful. o and the pedals are of course on the right side but still the same. clutch on the left, brake in the middle, gas on the right. o and i have a fixed "foot rest" pedal on the left side of the clutch which is good cuz im gonna do a lot of long distance trips lol.

hey jay, what year and cc is that thing?
as you probably know i had a 2004 YZ 250F, which i loved but sold. it was a awesome bike. looks like that bike has alot of hard hours but if maintained they last a long time. good luck and nice bike.
did you get it in the states?
it has the american end cap on the pipe.
proxJ
Oct 8 2007, 08:25 PM
2005, 250f, dosnt have too too many hours normal for the year, from what ive read aslong as you keep up on your valve adjustments and oil changes/filters they will last for a long long time (thumper talk is a awsome site!). Yeah picked her up from wisconsion.
