Cheers Dave

Welcome (back) Dave. It does seem to be that a lot of people come back to the gen 1 after having a change. I wonder how many other bikes see this same thing?

Hi I think there"s several reasons  one of them being my opinion the Gen 1 was like having two bikes in one you could cruise around all day on her but you always knew if you needed speed or power and excitement it was there, and just before I closed the garage door I always had to have a last quick look at the Gen1 never did that with the cbf  :)

I was once found curled up asleep next to my GSXR750 (slabside) in our driveway! I was a lot younger then though, and also, not a little pissed  :lol
I do pat the bike on the seat every time I'm just passing through the garage  :rolleyes
