Honda cr250 or Yamaha yz250 is a great cheap bike if you want to stick with 2stroke. Or any of the big name 450's would be good. If you need a taller bike with a ton of power you can get XR600's pretty cheap too.

That is how I hone my Chinese clone engines. :D

Costco has 1oz American eagles: https://www.costco.com/.product.1789494.html

Do you have a ski yet? Be better off buying a complete ski. Or finding a cheap Waveraider 701 or 760 you can buy gut, rebuild the engine yourself and have carbs electronics etc.

Very nice looking and great idea with the silica!

J/K Sweet ski!

wonder if they are making it in house or have one of the Chinese companies that have been spamming the fb groups doing it ?

That movie still haunts me 15 years later. If anyone really wants to know what shtf is going to be like. The Road is a documentary of what the US will be like after ww3.. *not really a documentary, but worth a watch if a shtf scenario is something you think about.

Great book and easy read that most of you will probably enjoy. "One Second After"

In a shtf situation the only metal of any value will be lead. :(

Year over year returns are mediocre at best compared to a decent stock, index, or mutual fund. You would probably do about the same or better having your money in an online high yield savings for the last 2 years. If the world does go to sht then only thing of value will be food and safety.

I think metals are a terrible investment. But I like giving out the 1oz rounds as bday gifts to kids. Figure its better than a toy that will be in the trash in 6 months. https://monumentmetals.com/5-silver-rounds-at-spot.html

55 is pretty impressive for that little ski and an adult riding it!

On a hot summer day running the 701 at WOT in a jetmate the cylinders are only around 110-120ish degrees. But after stopping they shoot up to 140-150. So figure when running the temps are much lower vs after you take off the hood to check.

I wasn't a fan either until I watched the Jay leno episode on it with the engineer and designer. I dont want one, but pretty interesting hearing how and why it was made like it was.
