Here are a couple of my 80's bikes since I had to delete my previous vehicles album due to reaching photo upload limit.

Saw a mate tonight and here's the latest stage of his modified GSX1400 Suzuki. His new headlight unit is radical. Straight from Japan.
You guys stateside didn't get the GSX14. They are a torque monster !

Fantastic bike ! Very rarely seen one, infact yours is the 2nd Fury I've seen.
A rare factory chopper, with Honda reliability.

No.... Hot Rod Shovel sits next to my Honda... depending on the type of ride and distance involved.

In 46 years of riding motorcycles the only time I was ever acknowledged by Harley riders was when I had the Buell.

Carry on......

Rode my Honda to the "2 Million Bikers to DC" event in 2013 (an incredible event btw) and had many pleasant conversations with HD riders... many revolving around parts falling off their bikes as they rode! Learned some excellent Harley jokes too...and no one gave me any trouble about my Jap bike.

In my area, if they are riding solo or just a couple of bikes, waves happen the majority of the time. Any larger group than that and it plummets to about 10%.

Saw this at the gas station last week.
How about this classic Sheene special?
Slightly improved in a few areas.
Pity the guy was in a rush I would have chatted with him longer.
Sounds excellent.
He has the same Vance & Hines pipes I've got for my retro Kawasaki.

Hi ferraripete, glad you like it.
His custom Triumph speed triple cafe racer is even better I think.
The headlight unit on the GSX he is particularly pleased with.
The small twin round lights to the right of the flat plate are the main and dipped beam headlights as required by UK law.
But the plate is ultra trick and direct from Japan. Its for race numbers !
All in white LED numbers or letters and about 4" tall. Very cool.

Remember the Transatlantic Trophy series ?
