Strokers

Post by Mav617 »

I bought an N1/LCII recently, and after 20 years off 2 strokes I can;'t believe how ferking quick it is. I thought it had issues at first as it didn't seem as quick as I remembered my 250LCs/TZR, then I realised I was riding it wrong! Screwing it in every gear it is ludicrously quick. I restrained myself today and took the TRX to Brighton, the poor thing got thrashed there and back as my mechanical sympathy has gone west since riding the LC, mind you it seemed to like it!

Cheers Fab, both so different though - for quick blasts it's the LC every time now, anything involving M roads and its the TRX.

It's all about the powerband with two strokes as you know Mav :wink: which can be very addictive :)
Nice looking bikes you have there 8)
