Saw this Suzuki Katana at Brackley today, always liked them so thought I'd take a closer look. You could tell the 1000 and 1100 models apart easily by seeing what carbs it has, but wait a minute - fuel injection? Then I realised he'd shoe horned a GSX1400 motor in there! Nicely done, upside down forks too, Harris pipe sounded nice.

My old Derbi terra 125 I had it for 8 months learning to ride again.  Was a fab bike just needed a bigger engine. My first 125 was a Honda nsr when I was 17 .... Can't find a pic at the mo .

my rd 400 and rd350lc..... these were my favourite bikes of my youth and i got them to re live it.... and to be honest when i go for a ride on my own i prefer both to the fazer 1000.... i think its more satisfying being able to use all the bikes performance which on the fazer i can never do.

Blackcabbie, stop teasing me with 2 stroke porn, it's immoral! (and not fair cos I can't afford one  :'( ).
The demise of the 2 stroke is a good reason to line up the environmentalists and  :2guns !! Imagine what we might be able to ride today if they hadn't killed them off..... :b

A couple of very trick GSX1100Fs seen at H's café, Dorchester, today. Ok, I'll concede (just this one time, mind!) that the red one looks nicest!

Had an Honda 50 Sprint in 1965 and that was the forerunner of the SS50 4 speed box and a push rod engine.

Here you are my first bike at age 17 - saved up 1 year from age 16 and bypassed the 50cc and went straight to 125cc
