    Welcome to the dark side.Nice bike for the $$$,people say it's old technology,but air/oil cooled as stated is another word for reliable.

    Bit of an expensive repair that starter switch,new bike was cheaper?

    Think the waitress's brain was left at Sanson,ya didn't find it on way back from Hawera did ya?Think her sister was working last week,we were amongst 5 people late saturday or sunday arvo,each time I went to the bar she asked what beer in my handle,shit she only had 2 guys buying beer and we both were on tui.

    Chickadee has a red one just like that. We tried to sell/swap for a small twin last month but couldn't get a swap/enough money for a decent little twin.

    As has been said before - they are underrated for some odd reason - it's got enough power to get you into trouble and is a nice long distance bike. I wasn't blown away by the handling but then I normally ride a lightweight, short wheelbase bike the rest of the time.

    A very nice bike indeed - good choice.

    Congratulations on the new bike!!

    I had the 80's model 'teapot' and they are a very reliable bike.

    Going the new katana/GSX way rather than bandit?

    So much choice is difficult,even when you have a budget,I have no idea what I'd buy with $13000 max,ya think yep a run out model or a late model bike,oh the choices.Then ya spy say a duc st,or triumph sports,then see the new katana/gsx,sv or vt twins.Have a mate with a new c50 and he likes it two up,and price was great.The second hand market makes it tricky at times with run outs and 1 yr old bikes close in price.

    Nice one, Nasty. Looks like an Aussie spec one as well, it'll carburate nicely on NZ fuel

    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Looked pretty nice to me yesterday. I had an '89 model and traded it with 66,000k's (bike shop couldn't fault motor when traded) on it so you should be good to go for a while...
