What is the last thing you bought for yourself?

[McM]

The last good looking bike that Kawasaki ever made IMHO

I liked this very much, the one and only big bike I ever had.

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.

I agree but here now it is just too fucking easy to loose the bike and the license at the top of second gear. Some guy got done yesterday doing 196kph and 3 times over the blood alcohol limit. He is going to jail and I bet he looses his bike as well.

That's why I bought the Royal Enfield! no fucking chance of a speeding fine on that old tractor but I still get out to play in the countryside where there is usually a lack of cops, besides which, very few bikes have ever overtaken me on that either, but it has been known when a straight comes up!

I need to buy some plugs and reed valves for my nsr it.s time for the stroker to get back out. It.s the only thing I got that gets rolled in the straits but they work for it. A mate rekons we need to do just track fays and fuck ridin on the road I think he might be onto something.

I can't honestly remember the last time I had a two stroke but at a guess it would be the very early 80's. I had a couple of Yamaha AS1 125's and they were faster than fuck, they would rip a power wheelie in any of the first three gears, fuckers fetch a fortune now, I paid £15 and £25 both that I bought

Yeah, I remember now, I had a TZR125 that I swapped for an original Playstation and Tomb Raider game in the 90's, that TZR was a fast little fucking thing, I didn't keep it long as I was still riding my BSA then and I'm a nostalgic old fart at heart.

the only bike I truly shat myself on pulling away, geez that was fucking fast, piss poor engine breaking, piss poor breaks and not very easy to get it round corners, last I heard the bike hit a lamppost at 120

I have always heard good things about them for the era they were from. Would buy one in a heartbeat if i could.

 

[Vwj]

Oh no Doubt if you put a lower powered engine in the chassis and breaks would’ve been great for the eighties but a 500 cc v4 made it very entertaining
