Suzuki 900rf got it given to me by a mate who had too many bikes at home. 1st bike but doesn't do anything for me. More fun on the lammy and T5.

ive had a couple , an XT500 Yamaha (james bond gold wheel edition, although I didn't know at the time and sold it for a couple of hundred quid, used for work only , worth a mint now etc) and a GPZ 900 (I think it was a 900) that I took part ex on a lammy, did nowt for me like. and an Aprillia 250 2 stroke that went like a f****n rocket. again, just took it in against a scoot I was selling. quite a few lads in the club have bikes, and one owns the local motorcycle training school (which pisses off the bikers when he tells them his favourite "bike" is a Lambretta GP200
) but I'm a scooter gadgee, and ive no real interest in motorbikes. I drink with members of the local "real" patch wearing biker club, and they have a lot of respect for scooterists, and slag off power ranger bikers more than us lot.

I have a 1953 Royal Enfield 500 Bullet, lovely big softly tuned single full or torque, sounds and rides like a dumper truck. Completely different from my 1970 GP but both classics.

Harley Sportster, not much quicker than the lammy and certainly handles worse
