Vaginal Tsunami!

You're under the Severn Bridge Bob?

Doing better than @Skippy's sheds then!

When I saw the thread title I thought @Skippy had started it.

Any pics Tym?

We only mentioned this one yesterday.....looks great but it should be an IL4 really.

The 50th anniversary model in the Z1A colours looks brilliant!

Now that's a good option!

There's shed limitations imposed in the Old Folks Home!

Fucking kiss of death right there!

The way we were......1979. Best bike I had in the 70's.......and I had a lot of them!

I should have retired 3 years ago.....but I'm still working. Brit Pension don't go far!

I'm 18 months away from 70.......but I'm not the oldest!

What classic have you got?

@Slowlycatchymonkey, @Skippy, and @Grasshopper's Ride can tell you about RE's.......they're not my sort of thing. I know I'm a bit biased but you should take a look at a Honda CB500X. I went down in size to get one and I find it great! 80+ mpg!

Sometimes you just know that a bike is not a good fit for you. In cases like that it's got to go. I had a similar experience with a TDM900 about 20 years ago. Nothing wrong with the bike, it was just not a good match for me. What alternatives did you have in mind? And what sort of riding do you do? Shorter runs or touring?

We're all ancient here......you'll probably be one of the younger ones! Are you retired @GentlyBentley......or still working?

Hi!

The XJR will be ahead on that......but that's about it. You're talking an R1 engine against an oldschool aircooled lump. Don't get me wrong.....I love the XJR. But in terms of performance against the Fazer 1000 there's no comparison.

You could end up with mange!

The XJR is about 40lb heavier!

It is! 143bhp vs 106bhp! I've no idea WTF they're going on about!
