2 Stroke Day - At Diamond's 8/22/15

Not only did I make a rare appearance this summer at Diamond's but I got there on a motorcycle.  The summer too near over, it was about time.


Not having seen the schedule, I had no idea that it was 2 Stroke Day, an opportunity (excuse) to ride over on the Smokers.  I don't have any and haven't for many years but our little group has them in abundance.


There were scooters, a very fine RD400 which was my favorite since it was something I wanted and never had.  Another one showed up in full Vetter touring gear.  The winner by popular vote was an excellent DT2 Yamaha 250 Enduro.  Sorry no photos of the featured machines of the day.


Triumph's, Suzuki's, Yamaha's, Honda's, an Indian, the Ariel, Ducati, SYM, another day of mixed representatives made the morning ride.

  1. Does the Ducati really sport a windshield, seriously? (Or is there another bike hidden behind that it might belong to...?)

    1. Sonja, your question made me giggle. Yes, the Monster has a windshield. This bike is only slightly less rare than its pilot.

  2. I saw candles somewhere that were 2-stroke smoke scented. You might need those in your stocking this year.

    1. Not sure I'm ready for quite that level of enthusiasm, just knowing the product is available is enough. :)
