A beauty.

Go for the garage Tony, the cost is soon forgotten where lack of space isn't!

Thanks for the info! :thumbsup:

I do tend to geek out on this kind of stuff....

Lovely, the pair of them! It looks like yours is a DBD34 model running a monoblock carb, does it also have the close ratio RRT2 gearbox?

Do you also have a goldie or did I imagine that one!?

For the ultimate in not signaling your intentions ride a vintage machine. My Rapide has 6v electrics, no indicators and an anemic stop light only operated from the rear brake, however it does make...

Brilliant pieces of kit, you can't go wrong. The price is forgotten long after the quality is remembered!

That's 4 Honda SS50's!

Tony, I believe John (bwest76 on here) has an electronic gear shift mechanism fitted to his Kawasaki as he experiences huge difficulty changing gear using his foot and the clutch lever.

I'm also after a bike lift but the platform type rather than the lift type and I know a few of you here have them.

I'm looking at the HBM300 with hydraulic and air (as I'll be using the air to...

Steptoe's still posting regularly on the UKGSer forum so I assume he's OK.

^^^I have fond memories of the Suzuki 500T, a vastly underrated classic these days and an underrated bike back in the day.

If you like riding the R1250RS I would have thought you'll love riding the R1250R.

Had a nice chilly ride out to Gloucestershire yesterday to visit the Classic Motor Hub .

The Rapide was gleaming when I left and thanks to 3 sets of traffic light controlled burst water main...

^^^Always good to see a bike being ridden regularly! :thumbsup:

You must have had the munchies Tony, Starbucks!?!?

And I did have a chilly 64 mile run on the Comet, never was a cup of tea so welcome. My fingers were ice cold!

I think the issue with the NOS set of fuel lines I bought, which I didn't consider at the time, was that they were genuinely new old stock - in other words decades old and not ethanol proof!

The...

I went to go out for a ride on the Rapide last weekend, turn on the petrol tap and ended up getting a petrol soaked leg. Even though I only fill up with 5% ethanol fuel, in the course of a year it's...

^^^Lovely machine, congratulations :thumbsup:
