Pictures...Okay!  Here is my1985 Suzuki GSXR 750 F model (the first ever GSXR750), used most days, I've owned this bike for 5 years and have modded it with 17inch wheels (in place of the bendy 18inchers), Cut down Micron exhaust and 6 pot calipers.  This is my 1989 Toyota Corolla GL, its ace, 200%reliable and drives like new!  Here is my weekend toy, used for rallies. Its a 1953 Austin K9, Radio/Wireless truck. Owned for about 3 years. 6 cylinder 4 litre petrol engine, 4x4 with high and low range.  And the 7/11 project, its a 1985 750 frame with a big bore 1100 engine fitted. Engine was dyno'd at 159.6 rw bhp. Nothing has been left standard on this bike. Its changed since picture was taken but should be finished in a few weeks.  |

I'll pass on the Birthday wishes! ;D
Yeah, I recon its easy to ride. A totally different experience riding a slabby to riding anything newer, but more rewarding.
Don't think I'd ever sell this one!
