I have had bikes on and off over the last thirty years, my last bike was the ZZR1100 had three of them, the best bike I ever owned. Since early retirement I am now looking at getting a small bike to potter about on. I want an old 1980s CD125 / or CG 125, but prices are rather high at the moment.
 
Some awesome machines here .... some not so awesome chicken strips .... whoooahaaaha! ;)

About a year ago:


Now (yes I know the engine is missing, had to completely re engineer the head studs)


Cheers.

Thanks mate, pretty pleased with it TBH! And about a week if all goes to plan, at which point it'll be straight back down the farm I got it from so that a) I can get a bit of practice with gears and b) to make room in the garage for my Z650 project that'll be arriving soon (hopefully) :D

Smashing shot, ...ZXR1100 Im guessing. You just cant beat that classic Z style, its as iconic as the E type Jag is to cars I think.

The 750s ..yeah I wish it was the one you had one your wall, kerchig!! nah it a modern sport one '97. I should have said 750s (zane) meaning it was build in the late 90s at the Zane Factory in Italy....really I just didn't think may would know, being lazy like.

Id swap in an instant though. ;)

Hi Chris. Lovin your Virago, cool paint work, do you clock up many miles? ive always wondered if I could tour easy rider style on one of those ... well, if it ever stops raining.
 
i don't have any bikes (as much as i'd like too), but a couple of my friends have some 125cc bikes. I've taken some pictures for them:

I'd use them a bit more if the Sun came out. I am a fair weather rider these days.

Close enough, it's the 12. Hard to tell the difference from that shot! :D
 
My former motorbike, a Yamaha YBR125 custom.

Due to this rubbish summer and my increasing role as a home carer for an elderly mother, it got used so little that the unleaded fuel in it's tank actually went "off"!
The other thing that didn't help it was me losing my confidence on the roads (far too many reckless boy racers type cars about), so I decided to cut my loss and sold it while the bike was in good nick, got a VERY good price for it.
