Here's some old photo's of my even older bikes believe it or not they were cool bikes when i owned them but they seem a little dated well a lot dated after looking at some of the bikes posted up here. I still love the older bikes though plenty of character i reckon.
First is the old Trident 750 i didn't own this for long i swapped it for a V8 HQ
The second and my favorite 73 Kawasaki H2 750 triple this old two stroke wasn't the best looking bike and was probably the worst handling bike ever made but i could never wipe the smile off the face every time I rode it. I sold it to a bloke who crashed it fairly quickly then dropped the motor into a hillclimb dirtbike frame one word lethal.
(This photo is not my bike but is the same bike)
The third which was cool back in the 80's was a 1987 GSXR1100 better known as a slabie or ironing board model because it had no curves. This bike had a 1172 bigbore kit yoshi cams major head work big clutch and a big set of flatsides to feed the avgas through. This was the first bike i owned that cracked 300kph not bad back then on a bike that handle like crap at high speed. I think every bike does 300kph now in standard form but i think it's more fun when you have to hang on for dear life.
The last bike was a 1973 GT Ducati 750 a very straight and original bike I was the second owner.
How sad now days all I have an old grandad quad bike and a good pair of walking shoes
