Re: Show us your 'past' bikes.
My mate had the same Gs550 and it was a lovely bike
I had exactly the same colour Gsx750, it was pretty good, although i never liked the 16in front wheel and how it handled. Great motorway blaster though.

Re: Show us your 'past' bikes.
I did my first continental trip on the 750. It was a good mile muncher. The small front wheel didn't bother me.

Re: Show us your 'past' bikes.
Right here we go,
First bike was one of these I fell off it numerous times! Then I bought one of these Sold it within a couple of weeks and went back to my 125 as it was just awful to ride Then bought one of these My first Sv followed that Which I didn't treat very nicely and pretty much ran it into the ground That was replaced with another SV Then I got this And then this to go with the triumph Then I sold both the triumph and the sv and bought a cagiva raptor for kitkat I then acquired her SV as she had the raptor I still have this sv although it Looks a little different now I bought one of these to have alongside the sv and the raptor And final picture of the current bikes in the garage There was another sv and a Kawasaki kdx in the middle there somewhere but I don't have any pictures of those

Re: Show us your 'past' bikes.
Its a beautiful bike and I could've happily sat and looked at it all day, it handled very well and it was very quick but unfortunately it just wasn't comfortable for me, it may be for others but not me and that's why I sold it in the end
The only bike I regret selling is the Daytona

Re: Show us your 'past' bikes.
I suspect it would be the same for me.
