    Love the knobby tires!
    On our '84 Kawasaki 110 we went to Carlisle "Dirt Boss." I was about 10 and my brother was 12- It took a long time to save up enough allowance and wood splitting for our grandparents, but we got a pair mounted on polished aluminum rims-we thought we were the bees knees!!! Later on, we borrowed and tested a pair of Hoosier "flat tracks." Those were sweet, but so low profile that you NEEDED the kidney belt to keep everything from jostling around too much!!!
    Glad you got that Honda, HoneyFuzz, it really helps bring back the memories, too!
