Motorcycles BS Thread 2.0

I count seven on the back wall, and one on the book bag on the far left.

 

This was the Rebound. One side was a red truck the other a silver car, sandwiched between tires big enough the body never hit anything. You could drive full speed into a wall and it would just flip over and over in place. Had a blast with that thing as a kid.

 

I tried flying his once right into a tree lol. Didn't try it again. Fun to watch they are stupid fast. But I never got into them. My brother is a electrician by trade so I guess it was inevitable for him to get into drones.

 

I didn't even see the 1 on the bag till you mentioned it. Good eye.

 

I've been into many trees with his, and a few bushes after the wind took it. Had to buy a pack of blades for it cause I chewed a few of them up, fair deal though for 2+ yrs of "borrowing" haha.

 

I had the Ricochet! was a blast.
Good ol ebay pictures i just stole below.

 

It was a lot of fun when I first had it taking pics.

 

That waterfall looks amazing.

 

I'm here for ya, buddy.

Another trait of the CARC bikes. That bubbling is less common, most guys have more subtle issues. They go to remove/replace the tank and it's snug between the rails. A decal lifts at a corner...that sort of thing. The issue CAN be combatted by eliminating the fuels ability to absorb moisture. I'm sure you know all this. Stabilizer. Always full. Non e. I put a bit of Stabil in when filling and parking, and generally try to leave it as full as possible, haven't had any issues. (My GRiSO) My other bikes are all metal.

 

Are any of them liquid cooled, or are all the Guzzis air only?

 

I had one of those! Bet it's still at my mom's with all my other old rc stuff growing up.


I rode 17 miles on my other two wheels between yesterday and today

 

Man, this is a LOT of bike for the money. And I'm only ~3 hours away.


If I were still shopping for a bike before I bought the S10 I definitely would have been interested!

 

But it's broooooowwwwwwn.

 

I like the eggplant color! and half the price of the S10 that was already a great deal!

 

Other 2 wheels being motorized or pedal power?

 

Shortly after waterfall pic... This is what I found on returning to the car. Why'd they have to break BOTH windows?? all they got was a duffel with our custom bowling balls and shoes... Haven't been back to that park for RC driving, or anything else, lol.

 

Ooof that sucks man. That's terrible.

 

Guzzi's have been 100% air cooled since 1921....until now. 2023 they released the V100 Mandello, still a transverse twin, but liquid cooled and more compact. Lots of Aprilia influence in the new design. The buzz is they perform wonderfully but not the anvil mechanics of the air cooled bikes. A bit more to them. Was awarded the bike of the year by somebody...

They've now taken that same drive train and introduced a liter ADV bike, the V100 Stelvio


here's a custom paint job on one of those. Introduced for this year....

 

Eggplant? That is brown, not purple. That, or my eyes are going.
