@@eastonwashere Yeah, even small ones. They give you that sudden blast of power that’s always fun. A 50 gives you a little blast. A 250 gives you a big blast. I can only imagine the blast from a 500 GP 2 stroke.
As someone who's almost 60 and grew up on Yamaha RD's and still owns a '76 RD400 I'd have to say those guard rails look a little intimidating. Reminds me of going from Willow Springs( where you have desert to run off in) to Riverside Raceway (where they had guard rails and concrete walls). This also reminds me of knee dragging my YSR 50 through Griffith Park and on Mulholland Dr. What fun times. Nice video.
I got my riding experience not in Willow Springs but being 10 years your junior I enjoyed my riding up and down west coast of Thailand and Malaysia from the underbone 100cc Yamaha sports to the RGV250 complete with Pepsi livery. ( Just a wannabe 500cc😁 ) ... I enjoy the 2 stroke more than a ZXR750cc which I bought later. All I know and see is that no matter where u ride, the enjoyment is the same ..... except we don't have snow to content with.✌️
@@princesssolace4337 My YSR50 was probably the funnest bike I ever owned. I could do knee dragging, stoppies, wheelies, etc. all at low speeds. I accidently did a Flying W in front of the Chinese Theater and it sure looked like I did it on purpose, lol.
@@RedBud315 I learned to wheelie on a Yamaha Pasolla. It's a 2 stroke 50cc scooter from mid 80s. I'm not sure if Yamaha market it in North America. 1 unit of YSR 50 can get u 3 Pasolla. We seems to owe Yamaha in some way or another being thousands mile apart on a different continent.😁✌️
@@princesssolace4337 My YSR 50 was a 1988 model which was 1st year in the U.S. market. White with red stripes. It was my pit bike when I raced a 1986 FZ600. Sudco Intl. which is Mikuni distributor took my bike for a couple of months to make a D&D expansion chamber for it and changed out stock 16mm carb for a 22mm with a K&N filter and changed gearing. It went up from 50 MPH to 60 MPH and could wheelie 2nd gear as long as I wanted it to. Stock it barely lifted the front wheel off the ground for a second or two in 2nd gear.
In 1982, a Japanese movie about a motorcycle race called 「汚れた英雄」"Dirty Hero" became popular, and a young man who longed to be a racer ran through a mountain pass and became the main character. Around the same time, the comics「バリバリ伝説」“Bari-Bari Densetsu,” in which young people running on the mountain pass become Grand Prix racers, was also very popular, and the mountain pass was full of young racers.

Nothing better than going through the gears on a 2 stroke (rz350). Today, people keep it in 2nd or 3rd on their 600 - 1000 which is boring and utterly lump.

You guys in Japan have access to the best bikes, lucky 2strokers
@Pointless Rat Race problem is all these vintage bikes are very rare in America. Most of them are in pieces.
I don't think not in 2023. Even the Suzuki scooter which was all over South East Asia at one time can't been seen in the wild no more😢

They need to lean off the bike farther so the wheels are more flat. Leaning the VIKE looks cool but it's not he right way for traction
