Bikes and Coffee Honolulu - October 2024

The Bikes and Coffee events in Honolulu are held on the second Saturday of each month at Montgomery Motors. I am usually the sole two-stroke rider.

For the October 12th Ride, Russell joined us, riding his 1984 RZ350.

The Bikes and Coffee folks have a big ride-out usually around 10:30 a.m. All three of us pictured (Terry on the Honda CB400F with primer gas tank) are in the AARP age group. We prefer to ride in a small group. Here we are riding out around 10 a.m.

The photographer got a nice picture of my RD350.

Here's another picture with some 2-stroke smoke.

We rode down to the end of Lagoon Drive for another pic.

Looking forward to the November Bikes and Coffee!

Today on BikeBound.com: Giant-Slayer: 500cc Yamaha RD350 YPVS by @boltmotorcompany, built from a two-box basket case: “The client…wanted an old-school race-customer version, paying tribute to the Yamaha 500s from the glorious 2-stroke years, and more specifically to Wayne Rainey.” Highlights include Yamaha R6 front end / swingarm / wheels, Brembo brakes, modern electronics and lighting, custom bodywork and paint, and what they call the main course: a fully rebuilt engine with a 500cc big-bore kit!

All my memories...

All my memories have strings attached to you.

From my very 1st time riding down that lonely back road in Ashburnham on a hot summer day just to get a cold coke at the local convenience store. Thank you Honda CB450. I didn't even have my moto license when I took off and explored on that day.

To my very 1st Ducati after almost 20 years of being a total geek about the Bologna motorcycle company. Riding that Yellow Super Sport down the lonely little back road in New Hampshire, listing to the arrow pipes sing! I will never forget hearing that sound for the 1st time!

Learning to raise the front wheel and wheelie for the very first time goes to that lovely’s little Suzuki GS450s then perfecting the art of the wheelie on my 1st Two Stroke bike the ultra-cool 1985 RZ350!

My short-lived experience with a Harley Davidson, sadly a bike at the time I had no interest in owning however now thinking about that 1956 Panhead in my garage! I wish I gave that bike a little more time to wear me down. The kids were young, my business had just started, and we needed the cash for our 1st house purchase. Thank you for that Mr. Panhead!

Ah, the 1986 Kawasaki Concours. That feeling reading every article I could find about the ability to crush mile after mile and still have the sport bike handling all with factory hard saddlebags. I fell in love on that bike, got married while having it. Sadly, the marriage didn't last but I have a feeling the Connie is probably still running!

That feeling of OMG I just spent how much on a 30-year-old bike that I haven't even seen in person yet. Then finding a shipping company to bring it home to me, but when the Holy Grail arrives, and I finally get to say I own a Honda NS400R after so many years of dreaming about own one! Heaven!

Believe it or not my 1st touring bike was a 1986 Yamaha FZ600. No one told me back then that you couldn't strap on some saddlebags to just about anything and take it on several 600-mile days. Was this how "sport touring" was started? Being only 20-year-old kid made curling up on that sport bike not so uncomfortable.

Sitting at a traffic light with a special girl sitting behind me hand on her knee talking in the helmets about life and all the crazy ups and downs of it. Thinking about new experiences, relationships and exploring. Big Blue (Triumph 1200 Explorer) has been a great two up bike to own, the ultimate adventure touring bike, she has taken me all over the east coast and has had some precious cargo on the back. I'm still looking for that forever passenger to hope on the back with me and ride off in the sunset with!

I could go on, there are more strings here, all lovely memories to have and to share with you. Maybe 32 so far or is it 33 now? I guess I should count them someday.

However, I once heard a quote about things you shouldn't count....

" Years, lovers and Glasses of wine, these are things you should never count"

I think we should add motorcycle to that list. Not one of my old strings would want to be just another number from the past. They all hold such a special spot in my memories

Head empty only inupi’ fav motorcycle model and it honestly looks so cool i wanna ride it even if it’s way heavier than the one i ride and might take more strength to gear it

model: Yamaha RZ350

guess he’s a vintage guy with good taste since this model was manufactured from around 1985 til 1995 and was considered to be one of the most iconic models back in the days.

GOD IMAGINE RIDING WITH INUPI USING THE SAME MODEL AS HIS ON THE FREEWAY NOT CARING ABOUT SPEED LIMITS

2023 Yamaha RZ350: What if Yamaha and Bimota teamed up to create a 40th anniversary edition RZ350? California’s Julian Farnam decided to build his own interpretation, including a custom chassis and swingarm based on his AK-1 chassis kit, which saw success in AMA / AFM racing. Weighs just 290 lbs with a half tank of gas and 75 hp on tap from the 375cc @tony.doukas built engine. “I often refer to the handling as ‘telepathic.’ It’s almost as if the bike knows what to do with very minimal rider input. It is an absolute joy to ride!” With thanks to @aerocraft_fiberglass @cyclefinish @motodemic and more. Photo: @astronaut_bear at @the1moto.

Zack Courts Reviews a 1984 Yamaha RZ350

Zack Courts Reviews a 1984 Yamaha RZ350

Two stroke street bikes used to be a thing. In this episode of Daily Rider, Zack Courts rides a 1984 Yamaha RZ350

The ring-ding-dung bike is a truly great machine, but it also comes with some notable downsides, which is why you don’t see two-stroke street bikes today.

Still the motorcycle is a special machine and it makes me wish there were modern two-stroke motorcycles on sale today.
