  10. RD125lc.
    Z550.
    GPZ1100B2
    GSXR750G.
    GSXR1100K.
    The RD got nicked, Z550 snapped its cam chain, GPZ I sold to a friend to fund the GSXR which I wrote off.
    And for the life of me I cannot remember what happened to the 1100.
    I must have chopped it in for something or other, god knows what though.
    I had 2 1100 K’s and an M over the years.

  13. In 1980 Suzuki TS50
    …..1981 Yamaha RD250LC

    .....1982 Rickman Z1B to ride while Z1000 was in bits

    Oops: Edit TS185 came after the Rickman and before the CB750 :bucktooth:
