    Exactly. All of the test riders loved the handling and the suspension was quality Kayaba. The forks are conventional types with cartridges so they're good stuff.

    Another good thing is that it has the Sagem ECU in it so I can reprogramme it with a laptop. Not need for a PC3. Awesome

    G'day again, this is the '84 model. The '85 had a silver frame and a fuel gauge. Guessing '85 is when it was first Regged in NZ. Mine says its an '87.
    My choke dial broke off years ago but it never worked anyhoo, it was just glued in place for the look. You can operate the choke by pulling a little thing on the left of the bike on the carb. Guessing you already know that but just in case.
    Mine doesn't have a side stand cut off switch either. I have the same exhaust as you and I think it makes it impossible to have the centre stand at the same time. Well, mine doesn't have one.
    So the only way to let it warm up before you ride is to have it idling on the side stand so perhaps the switch gets removed when that exhaust gets put on?

    You've got the same exhaust as me!

    Don't think it was an issue with the sprints.

    Hi
    Tag along the Wednesday night rides. The front group go like a bat out of hell, but the group at the back just ride safely along.

    Nice work riffer, I am fortunate to own a 86 pop up, in original condition with the exhausts as well. Great bikes. I'll be watching your progress with interest.
    Cheers
