On one particular Wednesday evening there were an awful lot of Kawasaki 2 stroke triples out

I would imagine the handling and braking are vastly improved upon the original model

I don't often see a CBX these days

I always wanted one of these back in the day but events led me into buying a Honda 400/4, this was my first 4 cylinder bike and I soon realised that 4 cylinder bikes were not my cup of tea

I am often asked what was the worst bike I ever owned, without a shadow of a doubt it was one of the above Norton 750 Commandos, a complete unreliable heap of shit. When I hear people mourn the passing of the British bike industry I always think they weren't unfortunate enough to have owned one like I had

A few of these Honda MSX 125s are out on a Wednesday. I rode one a couple of weeks ago and was well impressed with it, I plan on replacing my CBF 125 with one of them when I return home in the spring

Drum brakes on the front, that's going back some years, 1969/1970 for this particular bike
