While cleaning and working in the bike trailer, I decided to shoot a photo of some of the stable. They are, from left to right:
- Barbie's 2006 Strada scoo9ter that I bought her for Christmas in Key West
- Barbie's 1884 Honda Ascot VT500
-1985 Nighthawk 700SC
-1986 Nighthawk 700SC
-1990 Yamaha Venture Royale
I didn't drag any of the dirt bikes out because I don't think many would be interested in old Bultacos and Montessa Trials bikes.

nice looking stable! i *LOVE* the ascot, and the '85 CB700SC isn't looking bad either... i like the yellow!
if you're ever looking for a right side cover for the '86 in fantastic shape, i've got one i'm just about done repairing. it only had a couple cracks on the part of the cover that faces forward when it's actually on the bike, and it needed a couple new tabs. i've got that all done, it just needs a new bike to live on. i bought it to turn into a blue '84 cover and after seeing how nice it was, i didn't have the heart to ruin the nice factory decal and paint. i made the tabs and fit them using my pristine '84 as a model to line everything up. shoot me a PM if you want pics or anything.
PS - i used to have a 1992 Miata. what a blast!

Even though they are put away in the barn and I was getting the trailer ready to head south, if there is another day that is nice, I will drag them out of the barn and take some photos. In the meantime, this is what is in the barn:
1976 Bultaco Alpina
1972 Bultaco Alpina
1972 Bultaco Sherpa T
1970 Montesa Cota 123(Barbie's)
I am a sucker for Bultacos because I used to ride for them way back in the day.
ERAU-944......do you need a 1984 blue panel? I have a couple.

What a fine stable. The yellow S is my favorite - the corbin seat with the yellow stitching looks cool. Guess I'm kind of partial to yellow now.  |

I had a cousin that used to race Bultaco's. His first motocrosser was a Husky 400. Just about killed him. He broke his leg once in a crash and then broke it again trying to crank the bike and it kicked back.

Them old school bikes were MAN KILLERS or LEG BRAKERS.. My Dad rides a Quadzilla 500. If you don't know what that is it's another MAN KILLER that was KING of the sand dunes in it's day. He just put a new piston in it a few weeks ago. I've never been brave enough to kick that over..

nice stable. would also like to see the dirt bikes. i had a pristine 73 husky 125 cr and a clapped out 74 husky 250 mag cased cr that i sold to a guy in fla. about 1990 and i saw him in 2005 and he still had them. also had a cherry 73 cb100 that would be perfect for riding around key west but was a dust collector here so i sold it too.
