I would totally own another 1992 GSF250 Bandit Slingshot 16v. That thing was a f***** banshee. 18000rpm screamer, hit 180 before the carbs couldn't send enough fuel, and the thing was perfect in the corners! - always good fun and easy to get the older drivers angry.

I used to have a 2000 GSF250. Great little bike, but when I test rode a 750 after passing my full I just had to trade in the Bandit.I would totally own another 1992 GSF250 Bandit Slingshot 16v.

None of them ... I sold them all for good reason - usually to buy a better bike ... and will continue to do so ...
There are reasons I don't ride the older bikes .. now we have better handling, better brakes, better motors ... and I don't have to be a mechanic any more - just a rider
I have no nostalgia for the past ... there's good reasons why it is the past ...

The reason I sold my Sprint was because in one year I had spent $4324.56 on it.
My thought was '' when the fuck will this spending stop''? do I sell or keep it? Some said to keep it because of the new parts that were on it. Started looking around, saw the CB and my mind was made up.
Buying new from now on lessens the expenditure, ok initial outlay could be twice what I would want to spend on bike but it evens itself out in my opinion.
The Sprint still remains the bike I miss the most, the comfort/that Triple sound through the Neptune and the ease of riding it.

The one in the pic isn't my actual bike. I owned it before digital camera's etc.
The pic is just one I found on Google images.
After the Montessa I also had one of these. It was heaps of fun (and 'old school')
I miss it because it was fun and easy to ride. It always started first time no matter how long I left it.
I also owned 2 twin shock TY175's but I prefered the TLR.

Well if we're allowed to post pictures of other people's bikes, here's sort of like my TXT200. Handled better than any other bike I've ridden. . .except for latter model Trial bikes I've ridden. Seriously. you think your bike handles well? give you a race through a tightly spaced pine forest section
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.
Que?
Did it have Ohlins?

Every bike I've owned, with two exceptions. The exceptions are the 1984 GSX250 I had as my first bike, and the 2001 RSV1000 I swapped for my Hornet. Fuck the Aprilia was shit, slow, crap handling, ugly, and expensive to buy parts for. Why the fuck anyone would bother with them, I just don't know.
Don't read this.....
Miss my 1st ever new bike, we learned together haha, got faster too. Turned her into a racer and we had lots of fun, then got ahead of myself and upgraded to the latest by ticking it up.......................end of racing came soon after from having no $$.

Agree I had one. I think it was 1999. Was new and 28k to buy. Must admit the sp1 I got after was a better bike.
I have evolved as a KB member.Now nothing I say should be taken seriously.

My old 1963 tiger 100 cafe racer. The only bike I regret selling.
Just another leather clad Tinkerbell.

Hmm....my 86 VFR750. Toss up between the 98 TDM850 MK2 or the 1988 GPX600
