Road Bikes Previously Owned - Inspired by Chris :D

Well, my first bike was a Suzuki RG125
Not my exact bike, but very very similar - was a 1992 model with green R stickers instead of red!

Next on the list was a Hyosung GT125 (2003) when they first arrived in the UK, I had it 5 weeks before i got hit and run.
Put 6500 miles on it in 4 weeks, It was a cracking bike and for some reason mine would pull past 80mph onto 85mph :O

Aprilia RS 125 1998 Rossi Rep was next! Got me through a pretty bad accident when i was 18, doing my left knee in!
This is a pic of the actual bike! Was bought by Craig from 125 forum and restored then sold to another forum member called Jonny.

Suzuki RF400, This was my first real taste of big cc bikes.
Was loads of fun, spent almost 2 years on it before I chopped it in for a bigger bike (restrictions in it lasted 2 weeks lol)

Kawasaki ZX7R - 2000 P4 late - Best bike i've ever owned, was a stage 1 dynojet kit, Arrow full system and jetted to perfection!
Got wrote off after some asshat ko'd me in the fast lane on the m61/m60 run on, he decided the lane was clear and he would change lanes without looking!

Kawasaki ZX7R - 1998 P3 - Had quill exhaust system put on with hindle downpipes. Got it jetted to suit, 2 days later it was wrote off by some daft cow on a quad bike.

Suzuki Bandit 600 - Put a GSXR750 engine in, went like a rocket too! Was a laugh until i blew up the 750 engine!

Can't believe you never owned a Honda or a Yam!
Suziwakirilia Tom !!!!!

 

I loved the P4 :<

 

nice one falcon :thumbsup: i like the rossi rep 125. was the p4 zx7 better than your tuono?

 

Yea, it was a lot better than the Tuono. Not on power, but drivability and just general use.

Smoothest bike ive ever had!

 

Some nice bikes there tom

 

:thumbsup: Another nice collection :clap:

 

Remind me never to ride behind you

 

what makes you say that? I can't say you would have much choice lol.

 

hi, ive just gone and bought an rf 400, im struggling to find restrictors for her, i see you had one restricted, where did you get them from? any help would be appreciated as i need to get the beast on the road

cheers ollie.

 

nice collection!

 

well impressed with the "quoting" skills there darkhound

 

Some quality bikes there man, you seem to have had some bad luck over the time though a few write offs and a few ko's!!!

 

Yea lol, comes from thinking your immortal at a young age! Fearless, arrogant and had something to prove...

Bikes can be replaced, limbs and lives can't.

Still take that young mentality to the track though, its nice to have no worries of cars pulling out with gormless drivers in!
