The worst part about getting back on a bmx bike after all those years was that it felt kinda lame compared to riding a motorcycle. The speed and air all seemed really weak in comparison. Nothing like hitting an 80-foot gap with the throttle pinned.

Caesar, that bike is VERY similar to the one I had when I was a teen. It was a Diamondback but not a Mongoose, I don't think. A lot of the components were the same. Mine was almost exactly like this one, from page 14 in this thread; components all the same but different sticker set:
