And while I said earlier that I wasn't a big fan of the 6, that one is really nice. Might make me change my mind! I think it's the wheels... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crazyredhorse 295 #29 Posted July 30, 2021 Alot of my freinds rode tms.I started working at 13 for a neighbor's business so I was able to buy rm new.The rm was a screamer very fast for 125. but I liked CrS for the handling better. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wfopete 15 #31 Posted August 1, 2021 (edited) I guess my rarest bike is my 74 YZ250A. That motor really ran hard. I bought it from the original owner and flogged it at vintage bike races for years until I was afraid it would blowup. It's been parked upstairs in my barn for over 20 years.
