I bought her to do the Yorkshire run on 2013 it ran like a bag of doggies but on the upper reaches of the great north motorway omg smooth power piling on going as it should err well quick, if I thought the exup I had when I was younger was quick this ones top speed was silly stooped and still going, when back at normal speed bag of doggies again, when back home reason apparent one of the main jets had dropped off so at full wompies so over the next year I got it sorted sealed tank full brake refurb venhill hoses got antidive to work sorted carbs out made a nice reliable usable toy, bloody hell I could scape my boots on the roundabout at the end of the bypass, I was proud of it till the crank went, bugger!

Loved my old 1000RX
They don't handle as badly as their reputation suggests, although I did need a new rear shock (old one seemed to seize) and once I'd bypassed the anti-dive the forks worked much better too.
Great bike though.

Yes fast as fck I have 3 , 1 is an import ninja 1000r this now needs a strip down for a new cam chain etc but lack of pennies is stopping it probaly because Im in the middle of a long restore of one of the others ! And then keeping my a1 and shaftie on the road at the same time . I’m running out of years

[gpjes]

I know what you mean, running out of years. Don't go out when it's dark, unlike my giddy mate who does to kill things but then he's separated from the wife, me happy with what iv'e got, feel the cold, lose feeling in the odd finger whilst out on bike but still have a fierce love of things that spin and make a noise doing it

[trikerdrew]
