My old Z650 , when bikes were bikes ..

[tunnie]

Looks nice, so much slimmer back then, bikes now are huge.

FatherT used to have a RD400

OOOhhhhh!!!.....Now you're talking, Mr EMD.

Thirteen second quarters back in 1976.

Here's my 1990 FJ1200 Yamaha......227KG and only 125 BHP......but still pretty rapid.

Crazed little stroker from the seventies and eighties. Very little front tyre wear.

I well remember riding a z650 when they had just come out.I held it flat in top for a very long time and could not coax it past an indicated 115mph,which was probably a genuine 105 at best.
They have built up quite a cult following over the years though,and good ones now sell for silly money.
I still hanker after 500 or 750 two stroke Kwacker from the 70,s (must be a sadomasochist) but they command ridiculous prices these days.

They will have killed all the previous owners.

Spawn of Satan.

Here's my GS loaded up for a trip to Wales few years ago:

[omega3000]

A bit more plastic here but the first V Twin that really was a stonking bike ...
RSV 1000 , A strong back required though 

[tunnie]

One of them ass in the air type bikes, never a fan of those tbh

I have the dubious honour of being one of those who crashed a 500 mach3 and survived with cuts & bruises. It was a KH250 attacking the back of a Hillman Hunter and a set of traffic lights simultaneously that almost killed me.
