(with some bias I admit) Honourable mention to the GPz900R - predecessor to the ZZR1100 and successor to the Z900
1984, 16 valve, water cooled, first of it's kind, took the double at the IoM I believe? Very impressive on the track. Certainly wasn't perfect but a flagship in sportsbike development none the less.

Can't argue with that either! I used to look forward to my rounds in the area.Originally Posted by Pussy
The people from Rerewhakaaitu were fairly nice, too!
A guy I drove tractors for (Brian Dale) had a minter DT360A that I used to spend a bit of time riding
I learned to ride on my Mum's BSA Bantam 125, so while not an Earth shattering marvel, must have been one of the world's most popular little bikes for learning on!

Suzuki GS750 - wasn't the first or the biggest inline four, but certainly the best allround package (brakes, handling & power)
it's not a bad thing till you throw a KLR into the mix.
those cheap ass bitches can do anything with ductape.

I concur. The GPZ900 was also the only bike that made the 16" front wheel feel nice too!
Come warm yourself by the fire
DT360 couldn't hold a flame to the...... TS/ER185.
A bike that apart from cosmetics has not changed since 1971.....
Likewise the equivalent EL/XR bikes.
The DT has gone through more engine facelifts, frame facelifts, suspension facelifts......than Dolly Parton

RG500 anyone? They appear to be very nice bikes.
I really do like the big 2 stroke sports bikes from the 1980's.
