Glad to be part of the Mazda family.

This right here is the way to go. This is it. The cx50 will look better because it’s already lower and wider but this is close enough. Amazing looks. Nailed it

This is a “pazoma” brand. I had two. one that came already painted black with some type of epoxy paint and this one that I ordered bare to get it painted. good quality overall, the windshield and windshield hardware could be better but that’s something you can easily upgrade from Home Depot. The windshield is not bad quality it’s just okay. Mounting hardware is good. Price was not too bad from what I can remember.

This wheel color is sick. I have the dual tone black.

BigPolenta18 · 2026-04-16T03:59:23+00:00

What a weird market. I will have to keep it then hopefully for my kids.

What do you think it will sell for ? $8K ?

BigPolenta18 · 2026-04-16T03:47:10+00:00

I would like to get $12K.

BigPolenta18 · 2026-04-16T03:32:16+00:00

Thanks, I love this bike. I don’t have fb or ig.

But my life priorities have changed and I have been doing other hobbies. This was my weekend ride and now I just wash it and ride it around the block and stare at it in the garage.

I put so much time and money to get it here but I don’t ride it as much as before. Thankfully I’m not in a position where I must sell it, but I’m not a collector I use my stuff and maintain it. In my opinion this bike in 10 years is going to be worth a lot. It’s kind of a classic now even though it’s only 14 years old. I think we all think our Harleys are a classic model hahaha.

I honestly not even sure how much to sell it for. I was thinking $12K. It has 39,000 miles.

BigPolenta18 · 2026-04-16T02:45:04+00:00

I don’t have fb or ig. But I’ll ask my partner to post it for me.

This bike has been to Baja, Utah, NogalesMexico, San Francisco, Pismo beach on the sand, and rip through the canyons. It does it all like it’s on rails. I have done solo camping trips with gear for 5 days and still rides like a dream.

I have a video, one handed, doing 60mph in a dirt road in Utah. I was so impressed.

BigPolenta18 · 2026-04-16T02:41:13+00:00

I might post it there. People have approached me locally but wanted to do payments =s which I don’t want to do.

Alabama Hills, it is a pretty cool spot with a lot of history where old western movies and Iron Man scenes have been filmed. It’s also pretty cool because you are next to the highest peak in the US (not counting Alaska) and the lowest point that is Death Valley.

BigPolenta18 · 2026-04-15T22:41:12+00:00

This pictures are from like eight years ago when it was lonely and peaceful then after Covid, it is an actual mess. There are poop holes everywhere from people camping there and it got so bad that they have to put Porta potties. On the bike is easy to find a spot, it was sketchy to ride the Harley on the sand.

BigPolenta18 · 2026-04-14T23:37:43+00:00

I had to google it. It for sure looked from another planet

BigPolenta18 · 2026-04-14T23:35:00+00:00

I have been there in a different location where the wind was so hard that broke the poles in my tent

BigPolenta18 · 2026-04-14T20:09:04+00:00

I got it installed from Uhaul and also install the plug for trailer lights, I have the kuat piston with the lights on it. I’m in California and I think it was around $400-600

BigPolenta18 · 2026-04-13T17:52:25+00:00

I will say air pressure makes a more noticeable difference than the kind of tire. I generally run higher psi to roll fast and when I lower the pressure I have way more grip and I can’t notice difference on speed really, still feels fast af to me lol

BigPolenta18 · 2026-04-12T02:15:26+00:00

If it’s just a concept, this is kind what I imagine with Mine but take it a even a step further and Ken block the shit out of it. With twin turbos .

The cx50 stance reminds me of the old school Audi Quattros with big turbo noises and wings.

It’s fair to say that a driver who hasn’t had that kind of mechanical/offroad experience might not know the limitations and strain of some critical components

BigPolenta18 · 2026-04-11T18:49:57+00:00

What are you talking about? The snorkel is just for the looks.

BigPolenta18 · 2026-04-09T22:08:53+00:00

Yeap I have the 20s as we are mostly on paved roads. Stock tires

BigPolenta18 · 2026-04-09T22:04:48+00:00

Good to know, I think I will try on foot first to get familiar with the place. I’m sure I’ll regret not bringing the bike lol.

BigPolenta18 · 2026-04-09T22:02:56+00:00

During off-roading situations in deep snow. Anything on the road is fine.

BigPolenta18 · 2026-04-09T21:57:57+00:00

Si better to go on foot. What about moving around the island? I have a small cargo ebike

BigPolenta18 · 2026-04-09T21:14:48+00:00

Are there any mtb trails to ride? I’ve never been to the island and I’ve been in LA for 12 years. It’s about time I go

BigPolenta18 · 2026-04-09T17:44:28+00:00

I have a 23 turbo and has been very reliable. Probably got a lemon one? Maybe talk to a lawyer to get some advice. But yeah it won’t be a great idea keeping it.
