This is my friend/employee. He goes by Tonka. Why? Because he is 7' tall/ 430 pounds.
Just look! :)
Here he is on my 250

Haha, had to share. Hope you guys enjoy the laugh like we did!
-
Holy cats man, That 250 looks like an 80.
You should punch him, and say something mean about his mother, just to see what he does...
-
Haha, I do know it sucks to play basketball with him.
You lose, and catch some elbows to the top of the head.
-
Wow that poor suspension! And that chest protector looks like it was going to fly off and go shooting around that room! That is one large human being :D .
-
Haha yea I had just got it that day in the mail, I told him if it snaps hes gotta buy it.
He thought about it for a second and figured it was worth the laugh. :)
-
I was expecting to open this thread and see some 250 modified to have 4" of suspension travel and small wheels, or a giant 250 motor crammed into an 80 frame. But no! Johasus!
-
That is awesome!! I did have a great laugh, thanks for sharing.
For those of you that don't know it, I'm pretty tall myself... at 6' 4"... After my first marriage dissolved into shambles, I joined the Tall Club... I know, I know... pretty funny..
Well anyway, they have conventions around the world. I went to one and it was a real change for me. For the first time I went to a dance hall where I could not look across the tops of people's heads to see the other side of the club. There were a few guys that were well over 7 feet tall. But the amazing part was that some of the women towered over me!
In fact I met my current wife in Montreal Canada at an event there. She is 6 feet tall....
Well anyway here is a link to the tall club for all those interested in checking out some tall folk!

Haha, even better, I think I may have some video of him riding an rm 125 last week. I'll see if I can find it. :)
-
You should get Tiny into pro wrestling and become his manager. :D
-
He's still smaller than The Big Show, amazingly. That guy is ridiculous, I remember watching WWE (except they called it WWF at the time) way back in 1999. I always liked watching the 'Show, because he would just sort of lumber around and crush people.
-
I knew you were tall John, I didn't know anything about that club. I am only 5'11" or so.
You have to post that video of him riding a 125. ;D
-
Haha I'll have to look for the flash drive after I get my internet problem solved.
I had him on a KX 85 a few months back. I felt real sorry for that bike. :)
-
I have to say, though, that's ONE way to mellow out the power of a CR500! I'd love to see a picture of Tonka hanging himself over the front fender, and the bike still pulling the front wheel into the air out of a turn.
-
Haha, I almost picked up a clean late 90's CR 500 a few weeks ago.. Should have gotten it, kid didn't know what he had. He said it was unrideable... :)
-
I read somewhere that of the global population only 2% (or is it 4%? I forget) of men are over 6'2" and women over 5'10", so being tall is a rare commodity. I'm over 6' and I have size 13 feet which means big,heavy riding boots and having to lengthen shifters and rear brake pedals to fit my boots. I recently rode a 690 KTM and that bike would have no problems hauling Tonka around.
-
i am 6"3 but I am only 145 pounds so I am light still.
-
ahhaahah good post! what is the size of his shoes?
-
18 Shoe size, bout the same as clown shoes. :)

You don't have to be tall to have big feet. I am only 5'11" like I mentioned above and I wear size 13 and an XXL helmet ;D .

A friend of mine's son is 5'9", average build and has size 14 feet.
Scientists have found Neanderthal DNA in some of the northern European populations. The cranial capacity of Neanderthals actually exceeded that of modern man. :'(

You buddy should join the WWE and kick the Undertaker ass!

I just have one comment at this point.

(Although, I guess it's a little inappropriate because if you'll look closely, you'll note that this Sasquatch is a female.)

Mommy?

ROFL.
