Sorry guys, for the rest of the summer I drive The Celica no more. I couple of days ago I bought an '84 Honda VF500F Interceptor:  Its a 500cc crotchrocket/suicycle that really goes. Its got a really powerful (70HP) V-4 in it that redlines at 12K. I have only owned it for 4 days but I am having a blast. The Celica will be back on the road, but alas, only for winters.

Yea, it does need a new windshield though. Thankfully Honda sells them for only 400CDN$.
Some of the maintenance on this baby sucks also. Like constantly spraying my chain with lube, and calibrating all four of my carburators.

250? No way. 350? Perhaps... it would be close. I don't mind giving another 80lbs for a liquid cooled 4 stroke though.

SHHH WEEET. That bike is a classic. Amazing the get up and go you can get out that engine. Second the motion on the styling. It was way ahead of it's time. I'm trying to track down a late 80's early 90's Kaw. Ninja 1100. I just can't stand not having a bike in the summer. I have had a few bikes since I was about 11. Dirt is still the most fun way to try to kill your self. But there is something to be said for those times when you are just board and you get up walk to the garage and in a few your screaming at your self to watch for pot holes! You know how country roads can be. I still pull my helmet off out of town. Wind in the hair and all. . .you know. Be safe. Watch out for ALL drivers, cause they ain't looking for you!
