Funny thing is I have hundreds of pic's from that era and there is very few Kawasaki's in them, big Suzuki's were the weapon of choice back then only when I get to 85 Do Gpz's turn up.

Early Shot of Gordon Grigor on his GS1000S 1980, he had a very upright riding style but it seemed to work he was one of the fastest riders in Scotland in his day.Image
