Yessir, that is a .320 SuperMag. Bertram made the brass, then most of it was destroyed.

The .320 SM would make the .327 Federal Mag a waste of time. Smile

Yes Jody, like it's on rails. It's more fun at 45mph than most sports cars are at double that.

The Europa is sweet!

 

Not sure which car would handle better out of ours ... I have yet to drive a car that handles the twisties as well as a 914 (although I used to have a BMW 2002 that came close ... pretty good for a front engine coupe).

Yep.  Both of those are terrific cars, and the 914 certainly has the high-class name to go with the performance.  Overall, from my experience, the 914 is probably a better performer than the europa.  Someday I hope to have a GT3.  I'll keep buying my lotto tickets.

I used to rally (club events) a 2002 on weekends for a dealer.  They were new in this country at that time and he wanted some exposure. I really loved it.

It's hard to believe with the great week I've had (minus the plastic bullet/pillow incident), that it could get any better...

Here is proof that my wife truly is an angel -- Today I ran across a 1974 Suzuki TC 125 enduro... the same bike I spent a good portion of my youth on.  EXCELLENT condition for a 36 year old machine, and only 420 miles on the odometer.  Needless to say, it had to be mine Laugh...

It had been parked in a barn for the last few years, but it fired right up.  As soon as I heard the exhaust note my mind flashed back to when I was 15 and tearing around the woods in PA... a quick ride down the road enforced these memories as I smelled the fumes from the exhaust...

My beautiful bride wrote a check for $500...knowing I was having a very spiritual moment...

 I informed the owner I was going to ride it home--- 15 miles down the 2 lane highway Cool... he thought I was nuts.  So off we went, with the wife following in the car--me on a bike that is 36 years old and has been parked for a few years... did I mention I think I'm on the original 1974 tires ...?

40 MPH at 5500 rpm for 15 miles...loved every minute of it.  The bike is actually for my 12 year old son Alex--we're going to share a few Suzuki memories together.

OH MAN.... that brings back memories!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I had a KE90, which was a Kawasaki 90cc road bike alot like that one it had the 18" tires front and rear to make it street legal, lights and all. I beat that bike in the woods for 2 years. Blew it up and rebuilt it with a 100 jug and piston. I sold it to move up in cc size. kind of wish I still had it. Mine was a 2 stroke, it had oil injection. Is that Suzuki 2 or 4 stroke?

Laugh all you want, I can see them on my laptop at home.  I also couldn't see them at work, so I really don't know what's happening with this site or my work server security blocking them.  But why would that happen only on my pictures??? 

 

SO WHAT'S UP WITH THIS???  JODY???  AND MY WORDS RUN OFF THE PAGE!!!
