My Other Bikes

#1 PostAuthor: bulldogbobby » Wed Jan 22, 2014 9:33 am

Cleared the garage out and found the speed triple hidden away at the back! Great bike but wish I still had the 'Rex that I sold to buy it - seemed the right thing to do at the time.......... :cry:

Yeah, I would have kept the 'Rex too.
Sell the Speed Triple and buy another 'Rex?

Don't get me wrong - I really liked my ZRX but modern bikes are so much better dynamically

I just love nostalgia.

Gardner engines, Raliegh Choppers, Zeds, Capri's, 70's porn, Etchasketh's, Space Hoppers, Tudor crisps and segs !!! (I don't have a lisp, they were for the heels of shoes).

No kidding--the Tuono is a blast.

I am on my second Generation 1 1000R they are magic and off their 'eads if you want them to be

The Gen 1's are going to be classic too
