    I Is A Retread

    Yep second time round doing the bike thing, all the usual reasons for the break.

    Just could not resist an old Ducati, dodgey electrics, constant fettling and maitanence...................how could I resist.

    Had almost nothing except jappas all sizes and shapes starting with an old Suzuki T250, 650 Trump, Z1, XS1100, kwaka tripples, CB SOHC Hondas, last was an RZ350, club and road fun.

    Thinks, the RZ and the current toy both black with red frame, similar performance delivered in very different manner.
