introducing myself

Post by kdxoldrob »

hey guys and ladies. my name is robbie. i live in middle tn. i am 50 yrs old and just got back into woods riding. i am self employed welder of 33 yrs. i also build mustangs and do mustang work with roush products as a passion. i started riding kdx's back in 1990 when i got my first one. then later on i got a 93kdx 250. now i have an 06 200 and 05 220. i am not going to keep both bikes. but i am a perfectionist and like nice things. both bikes i bought are nice bikes. just a few things that needed maintenced and in the cosmetic dept. i have a good since of humor and like to cut up. so dont get butt hurt if i crack a joke cos i dont mean any offense. thanks for adding me into the group. i have read so many post and forums in here. it is really helpful when you been away from the scene of kdx's so long. trials bikes have ruined me as far as 2 stroke power. but i think i am gonna get these bikes tuned up just like i like them........sincerely robbie hawkins

Now that makes me jealous! One of the best looking 4 door cars I've ever seen and great performance potential.

I didn't know they were still making Falcons...love those Vauxhall/Holden Commodores out of Australia though. One of the ultimate sleeper cars!

Kdxoldrob, can you post some pictures of your mustang projects? :supz:

Hi and welcome!!!

I usually jus stick to the Ranger line of things but like stangs.

From what I remember correctly after watching some fast n loud the falcon is still being produced in Australia. Would love one really lol.
If you cant fix it with a hammer, you have an electrical problem.

Falcons are finished in 2016 :( I've owned 5 of them. They're being replaced with mustangs on the performance side (replace the turbo and supercharged v8 models) and Taurus or fusion (I get them mixed up) for the family line.

Shame as they're great cars. But I'm sure a mustang can fit the bill.
