What motorcycle do you ride and what do you think of it?

Of course!

I bet you’re looking forward to it, sounds just brilliant!

Well, here’s a photo of mine clean. It’s the 7th Harley I’ve had. They probably all saved my life because they’re fun to chill on as well as go mad… Had Triumphs and Hondas before - and a second hand MZ that took me all around France snd Spain…

Nice collection. I had a TE450 for a few years - it was in much worse shape than that one by the time I moved it on! Weird how Husky’s 2 strokes were WR and 4 strokes wereTE. Now the 2 strokes are TEs…

I was on the 10-50 train and couldn’t believe how quiet it was . As always it was a breeze going through.

A previous steed.
Kawasaki ZXR250 - not a parallel twin but a four cylinder 16 valve unit with 45bhp and a staggering 19000rpm redline. The rev limiter kicks in at 21000!
70 in top is 10000rpm.

Wow! That looks wonderful and I’m guessing quite rare?

I’ve only ever seen one for sale and this was it. The carbs needed a complete rebuild to get it running right but once done it was fun round North Yorks. :innocent:

Owing to being busy and bad weather today was my first time out this year! At 9:15 I was at Devil’s Bridge (Kirkby Lonsdale) queuing for a bacon barm :bacon:

That all sounds very civilised, and in a very lovely part of the world too!
