The two-stroke obsession spans across the globe. When I moved to Japan, I met my friend Japanese Soma-san. He is a fellow two-stoke head like me!! Like most Japanese, he is crazy into his hobby. He owns a good amount of bikes. He has: two Honda MB5s, a Honda MB8, a Suzuki Z, and Yamaha 250Z. He has tons of parts. He even has parts under is desk in the office. When I say parts, I mean two engines, a frame, a fairing, a exhaust, etc. This guys is crazy!! Like me!! I turned him on to Treatland USA and now he is straight up lost his mind!!

Sweet ride!
