Had a 580 mile round trip to visit a Z1OC member today - and swapped the LTD

(didn't exactly
sell it) for this gorgeous beasty....
Always had a soft spot for big Suzook's, and when I got a PM about the possibility of a swap - I was hooked

what a very charitable act sir!
A 580 mile trip to give a dog a new home, and you even gave away your LTD.
Now then i have a 3 legged cat and if you wish to drive 600 plus miles next weekend i may swop it for your "bestest thou"

Apparently so - and the ES had the half fairing - so it's a naked EFE

What are you gonna do with it Piggy
Just enjoy it as it is, or take your spanners to it?

I bought a new red and white one back in 88 on an E reg, fast it was, but wobbled as well

...I like to take the engine out of one, and fit it in a GS1000

Not really much point making too many plans - the way I chop & change bikes
...but - so far just tidy her up, already fitted some lower bars, new oil & filter, took the pipes off and cleaned the headers up & resprayed with black VHT. The fork seals are leaking so ordered a new pair, then get it taxed for first of the month....
Must admit it does seem to go well - clutch springs need uprating

Good man Piggy

No point in getting too precious about these lumps of metal.
