Any of the older ThumperNats specials, particularly Lee Hogan's KLX250, the Cisco's custom framed TTR250 and the XR280 powered 93 CR125 that I should have bought on EBay a year or two ago.

What happened to Trevor Williams' SR500?
The good thing about telling the truth is that you don't have to remember what you said.
