Sorry, I still think it's hideous.








I think it's fabulous,it just shows you,one mans joy is another mans sorrow.Variety,the spice of life,it's what makes the world go around. :woot

Absolutely I had a good friend, now sadly passed, who thought the 916 was ugly, but thought his STX13 Pan was beautiful.

 200 bhp and no front brake. Good plan.

For some one who has a C90 your opinion is seriously floored.

They were certainly good bikes.  I bought one new myself and ran it for 5 years.
But cool, as in ice cool?  Nope not gonna post any pictures of my FZS600 or FZS1000 in this thread.

There's not much I'd rather not be seen on than a C90,maybe a Raleigh Runabout. :lol

Have I ever claimed it’s cool?  I first got my grubby mits on it back in 1987.  It was sitting in my folks garage with 26 miles on the clock.  I had a slight problem - no money and I wanted a bike – but more than that I wanted a bike license.  I took a good bit of stick for that bike, but I got my license, and in 1988 it got shoved back into my folks garage.


With my ma Dad having passed away at the very beginning of 2016, and my Mother shortly afterwards in a care home.  Well I dug it out of their garage, and it’s now sitting in my garage awaiting the day I decide to spruce her up a bit and maybe even take her for a spin again.  She’ll never ever be ice cool, but age has granted her a certain charm, and of course I have a sentimental attachment to the old girl.

Spotted this one at the Classic Bike Show today. Looked reasonably well put together, and not bad looking either methinks

that looks like a modern Ariel Square 4, or an original one off.
