The bikes of Huatulco, Mexico

[pdedse]

So, if you rode something down there with a displacement of 500cc or larger, would you be considered some sort of diety?

I have a Honda Gold Wing snap somewhere, and perhaps some HDs. There was a BMW GS, but I did not bother snapping it up. Large displacement bikes are impractical in town, but are suggested in rural paved regions as it is mountainous. In town the roads are quite rough and many are semi-loose tarmac.

There was a HD-based patched gang briefly in town from Mexico City. A very noisy bunch revving their crackle 'n' thunder V-twins in an otherwise peaceful town. Local residents appeared not impressed. Not sure who the HD riders were trying to impress - themselves? (they have the left hand for that).

A Honda XR190L ...



[Mexico]

Neat little motorcycle. What I don't understand is why Honda didn't bring this bike to the US instead of the XR150L? The XR190 makers more power and torque, has FI rather than a carb, and is even a few pounds lighter. Both are made in Mexico.

I would like that just so I could have a kick-start bike. My little CGL125 was the easiest thing to kick start...barefoot, with your hand if you wanted.
