There are a few on ebay right now, it looks like they are bringing out a new model Katana. Is now a good time to say that I always thought they were right ugly bikes?

Mental prices on ebay

I had a GPX 750, in my defence I can only plead that it was cheap when I bought it, now that really was a fucking moose of a bike!

Got the looks right with the early gpz’s then made the gpx to even it out

Ahh I see what you did there.

Where's the fun if you've got brakes and handling, getting around the bendy bits at speed ceases to be a challenge that you get to brag about over a few beers.

Mate I would hate to try to add up the time effort and money I spent trying to get my 73 900 to turn and stop. But int the mid 80 and early 90s I got a lot of scalps with it. Some sooks on spa framed bikes would not enen talk to me at the pub they were that angry.

Lol

I think we hatched from the same egg! The last time I went out on my Zephyr to Matlock Bath there was every kind of new fangled sports bike there, ok so they all didn't leave at the same time as me or go in the same direction but not one single bike overtook me on the way there or the way back, it's about twenty miles each way. I think we were born of an age when you either rode them balls out, you died or you bought a car! I still ride like I did when I was young and stupid but now I'm even stupider.
