Tango Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 Or a modern day version of it? Obviously Triumph have persevered with the Bonneville and Kwak have released the Z900RS, but is there a bike that you wish was still made? Maybe with updated motors or cycle parts. For me it would be the Triumph Thunderbird Sport 900. Maybe updated with the 1050 motor. Otherwise pretty much the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XTreme Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 A modern GS750 and XS650 (ideally 750cc) in classic style.....not some hideous fucking thing that looks like it came out of a Judge Dredd movie! I love 70's styling......once it got to the 80's bikes had that weird angular look started by the Z1R. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Fallsalot Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 I'm the same as Bob would love the DR650 or the XR650L to be available here, the only upgrade i would like on them is fuel injection fed up of messing with carbs As for a bike that isn't made anymore it would probably be a CR500 love to duel sport one of those but fetching too much money for me 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boboneleg Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 I've been keeping my eye on this Fred, I think you'd struggle to find one as original as that nowadays............. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/324733099719?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
