I tend to be rude but truthful when it comes to motorcycle racing and I'm way outta touch today.

The SF is not the fastest but she's a Farrie in the chase.

I ride a motorcycle like a lawn more today and I'm still alive.

I warn you is to never underestimate a Breganze 750SF Rider.
 
Love your sitar Grant your image should look like this: Geez where did it go , I'm looking for it ;o)

And yes I'm a great mechanic and a motorcyclists.

Not a pic of my 84 Kantana as I never Pic'd her as she was Blue and White.

A ride that would make Breganze motorcyclists KRINGE.

But not so fast that a SF would not sneek behind her and take the flag ;o)

In 84 that Suzuki would cruise at 120 mph and hit over 140+Mph and you make you shit.

Had her for 2 years and sold her - That's why I'm still alive and gotta watch out for them FS's.

Todate, I ride an SF, but yet to another one.
 
I rode a mate's Katana back in the day. It went like shit off a shiny shovel, but the wayward handling scared the crap out of me. Bucked and weaved like a belly dancer in fast bends. It was even worse than the Kwak Z1B I had at the time.

Crikey Cam, it must have been awful!!!!!!
My GPZ1100 B2 was a scary handler + some more (until I fitted a box-section swing arm and fork brace).

Unsurprisingy the next model (A1) had unitrack suspension and box section alloy arm as standard (it was the predecessor of the famous GPZ900).
 
Really fancy one of these anti-gravity bikes, at much lower speeds you are much less likely to hurt yourself, right?

I have solved the problem for a long time ...

The only times I've tasted off-road, was when I missed a turn

Sometimes it happened without damage, sometimes with ...

So I taken a definitive decision that the off-road is not for me  :D
 
Glad you didn't didnt try and get 140mph on the Katana pictured, that's a 750.

AH! Crisk: You're probably right as I said I never kept a PIC of my Blue and White 84 (Damn well could have been an 86 - can't remember) GSX Kantana 1100S or R - Just grabbed that PIC online as it looked like mine.

She would do 135MPH before I chickened out and was still climbing (Great HWY Star) but could not match my SF below 100 mph on a winding HWY.

Hope this PIC shows up - It kinda looked like this and had a faring like that but don't recall that particular wind screen as the bike appears to be modified ;o)

But are the Colours I rode on a GSX 1100 Suzuki back then for 2 summers.

She was Suicide Ride.

I was in a very unique place during the late 60's and early 80's where lots of young men made a tons of money and chased death on motorcycles, a few didn't survive - Lost friends.

I was Coked in that era and outta of my mind after my girl left and lucky to have survived.

I'm a Motorcyclist's at heart.

Maybe why I kept that docile SF if where not but to keep my heart beating.

I got married in 88 and parked my rides. In the stable were a 70 Camaro Z28 7000rpm 625 Hp BBC MKIV, 70 250 Truimph Scrambler, Suzuki 500 2 Stroke Titan Cafe and an Laverda SF plus 2 or 3 fast Snow Machines (The 84 John Deer Kawasaki Sportfire - my favorite) - Shit Happens were you end up.

But most off all my 74 GL (LOST) and 84 GL Volvo which is still on the road today given to a Harley rider friend.

Now I drive a 2001 JEEP TJ and still have my 71 SF living in a 2nd story apartment - No Land left left thanks to my wife ;o)
 
That Suzuki 1100 GSR 1986 was then END on my travels then I got married. raised kids but kept that 71 SF. Could NOT afford a 3 CLy Breganze.

Not because she's a collector's by today's standard but because she's was NOT the Fastest but FAST ENOUGH, relatively light (Somewhat top heavy, a Pig at low speeds and difficult to Park) easy to work on and Real Flyer.

Loved it! Thanks for the memories.
Played this to death, I think I wore out one needle on the record player listening to this band.

Chrisk: An old Rock an Roll number were our gals dressed accordingly. You bring old memories when Pubs were Pubs - LIVE.

And don't forget one thing about Breganze's, there's nothing like a hot ass feeling with a tank fuel rupture dumping over your battery. Ka-Boom! - LOL
