Good morning, here is a selection of pics from my current collection, starting with the oldest first 1958 Royal Enfield 350, more info in the RE owners section 1980 Honda CB250N Superdream, watch out for a new thread appearing in the restoration section soon ๐ 1989 Yamaha FZR400 3BF, built for the USA Market, originally registered in the USA, then, it was imported into S. Ireland, and subsequently registered there, after a while, it turned up in the UK, still registered in S. I. With no supporting documents, it was a real PITA to get it registered in the UK, still needs some work doing on it 1990 Yamaha FZR400 3TJ, bought as a clean up project, generally good overall condition, but, after some work, I found that the front right fork had a nice curve in it, so, had some new fork tubes custom made, again, still some work to be done 1996 Ducati 916 Biposto, original condition, only 11600 miles 2005 Suzuki GSXR1000 K5, one of the previous owners had chavved it to the max, horrid fake carbon stickers, lots of gel pad stickers, and, hideous anodised gold crap, looking more original now, just the wheels to get redone in black 2009 Suzuki GSXR1000 K9, nice looking bike, rides nice, but, I think I prefer the K5 Then, there was this, unfortunately stolen from outside the dealers, after being serviced ๐ช 2021 Kawasaki Ninja 650, lovely bike to ride, very lightweight, easily flickable, feels a bit underpowered after riding the superbikes though, ideal first bike for a beginner, and, can be restricted to ride on an A2 licence
