I just looked that jacket up. I have not looked at the Midway website in years. Great jacket!

I think I just got another bike on my must have list. an early 90's Honda CBR250RR. Not to be confused with a CBR250R. The Double R was never imported into the US but some have made their way here. The double R sports a 19k rev limit. you can't describe it, it must be heard.

A great quote from his documentary
"Alot of people idolize owning ferrari etc, but if you get stuck in you'd be living your own dream not someone elses"
A guy who handmade a complete motorcycle with virtually no financial backing beat the world's best ducati /honda etc is every bike/mechanics dream he did it,

I would like a 1981 Honda XR 200R or a 1981 Yamaha IT 175. I just want to ride one again.

Was that a four cylinder? If so I may need to add it to my list also!

Yeah it is a 4 cylinder 250. Pistons must be the size of thimbles.
