Hi,
New to this forum but not to two strokes. Had various over the years and some which I wish I hadn't sold like the KR1S. Still have some off road two strokes and now craving for a two stroke road bike. Also have a Honda CB1000R but miss the smell and the noise of the old days. I never got or appreciated British bikes as for me the nostalgic bit is 1980's two strokes. Used to get a lift on a Suzuki x7 and started road bikes with a Yamaha RD50MX. Messed with this and had 62mph on the clock (accurate clocks in those days lol).

Anyway, here I am.

Welcome. Thanks for posting straight away. Most new members don't bother (and then wonder why they get deleted soon after).

You sound like you'll fit in on here just fine. We'll get you onto another stroker very soon. Very Happy Post some pics of your off-road bikes, there's not enough of that on here.

Your profile says 'Yorkshire' - do you visit Squires Cafe much ? There's a regular two-stroke attendance there on a Thursday night, though it'll tail off a bit now summer's over.

I did take the Beta Factory 300 once to Squires and was entertaining/showing off riding up and down the steps and wall.

Jason (Harry original owner, son) came out and told me off saying, "stop doing that, why can't you just sit down and drink the coffee like everyone else!!!!!!"

Lol happy days.
