peterz84 Posted May 11, 2011 Report Posted May 11, 2011 Hey Gents, new guy here, lurking and learning from you guys for a while now and figured I'd join on in. A bit of an intro so you know who you're dealing with here. I've been an avid 2T bike rider since 1981, yeah old guy here, and own several 2T street bikes, rz350's to name a few. I've been seeing the engine work you guys are doing here and it is quite impressive, I'm learning a lot. My latest project is putting a rz based engine into my Aprilia rs250. The frame mods are done and looking at different engine options. Probably going the Serval route, my engine guy has been working out some SIMS graphs and its looking like its where I want to be. Anyway, hope you fellas don't mind an asphalt guy asking a bunch of questions and throwing some s**t into the game!! Thanks Pete Quote
Larry's Shee Posted May 11, 2011 Report Posted May 11, 2011 Welcome and where you from? Just the other day a newbee mentioned the Aprilla. Seems someone makes a kit to mount it to the rs Quote
Jereme6655 Posted May 11, 2011 Report Posted May 11, 2011 welcome to the bhq buddy......don't worry about being an asphalt guy....we'll still treat you the same.....hell as long as you love riding and you get semi turned on when you hear the sound of a piped 350 2stroke then your on the right site!

wfobasheeboy Posted May 11, 2011 Report Posted May 11, 2011 Welcome To HQ. That is a great looking fleet of bike you got there. Quote
Starwriter Posted May 12, 2011 Report Posted May 12, 2011 WOW!!!!!! With a stable like that, you are hardly JUST an "asphalt guy". Welcome. You have my respect and admiration. I'm sure you already know about Two Stroke Shop in Australia. In case you don't here's their site. They're real big into putting the Banshee based motor into the RS250. http://www.twostrokeshop.com/ Here's one of our fellow BHQers that put a 535 in a Suzuki. http://bansheehq.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=112692&st=0&p=982217 Quote
