Classic Randy, springer front end.

I dunno, in 1963 a 10 year old riding around on a pink mini bike?? ....nope....wouldn't be safe in my neighborhood.

My how times have changed....I guess pink is ok for those cowboys in Oakdale.. :blum1: although I would have thought someone would have mounted a rack of steer horns on the forks.

Too many pedophiles?

I am daring to put some dot approved on / off road tires on my 1986 fj1200 has anyone out there every tried this? I need some input before trial and error. I just want to ride down some dirt roads. Obviously not the best use of fj 1200.
.                                                         I took a ride Sunday afternoon down some dirt back roads near Tahoe  .I was the first person to lay down tracks on these roads this season.My Pirelli sport demons were more than adequate.Im thankfull I didn't have the chin fairing on though.

It kind of reminds me of my first impression of Hayfork.

Yep, road tyres are fine. If you can be bothered, dropping you tyre pressures well down into the 20's makes a huge difference.
