Mine tends to get used for big trips - mostly! Still miss the Speed Triple for shorter blasts!

aka gilo,do you know anything about the earlier models of the bike you have? I was looking at a 2006 model earlier. Had a seat.. felt great! Nice position and with heaps of low down torque i would guess.

Nice to see another Tiger (I had one before the Sprint).

And esp. the H2 - I'm a bit young for them as Kwak had gone on to the 'soft' KH's by the time I was riding.

yeah I just stepped off, happend as I pulled away from a junction in first, a few extra scratches but they just add character!!

That Kawasaki is great, if I had the money the shop near me recently had a Suzuki GT 750 like my old man had, could have been a two stroke pair!

From my old stable before it was broken up.

AJ Model 5

[img] [/img]

R1-Z - bored out to 350cc

[img] [/img]

Took out the 400cc engine and slotted in a Bros 650 into it.

[img] [/img]

Given to me to clear a debt. Say no more.

[img] [/img]

Same engine as R1-Z but not bored out.

[img] [/img]

Pub and beer run bike.

Can't even remember why I got this now, but hated every minute of having it.

Magazine featured blackbird - it was mine. They put my nickname in teh magazine as Handsome Q.

Shame they cocked up the photoshopping on the grab rail

My Tiger 110cc Thai made piece of crap......but no matter what it did, it never died. I even managed to submerge it in my garden over the top of the bike engine running, and it kicked over first time.

[list]anagallis_arvensis didn't you drop that Beemer just after you first got it....? Dim memory, could well be wrong.

Who's the bloke that ****ted his horrible brown Gixer almost on the way back from the dealer?

Yes, sorry couldn't recall the full details. IIRC, you'd just got your license and bike and then there was a knock. I wasn't suggesting you were at fault, just trying to recall that it had happened.

The man with the brown GSXR ran into the back of someone first ride out after delivery (IIRC)
