    The new Stinkwheel

    Well.....I saw it, and I had to have it.
    So I did.
    It's a pretty mint 1987 Suzuki RG400. Been looking for a 4 or 500, happens to be a 4, but thats a start!!
    Gawd I love two-strokes....
    Its rich rich rich fuelling-wise, but that'll be changed rapidly. Classic GP rep, a REAL GP rep!!

    I have ridden it 200km, and i'm already itching to pull it apart!! Is that bad?
    Got some RGV250 parts around....but don't know if I want to change it from original....meh, screw it, I can put the stock stuff back on!!

    Piccies now below. A few posts below.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.
