Motorbikes - Retro or otherwise!

[paddy01]

Well, every other bugger is at it

I think there's a few here into their motorised 2 wheels so I thought I'd kick something off

Here's mine :

1998 Yamaha R1
14k miles
Full Arrow Race Ti Exhaust
Ram Air Conversion using QB Carbon Airbox
Carbs Dynojet'd to suit
Penske full race rear shock
Forks rebuilt with K-Tech and other bouncy wizardry
Ohlins Steering Damper
Brembo Radial Master Cylinder
Pazzo Clutch Lever

Don't ride on the road so much these days, more trackdays.

You can't say that kind of thing about a Katana! :shock:

It's just wrong.

I loved those Katana's back in the 80's, always wanted one but had a GS1000S instead. Sleeping in my garage is a Suzuki GSXR1100M - the last of the oil cooled. :twisted:

Or alternatively, there's always a Harris..............
