My beloved Kawasaki triple has a new home
Im very sad now i have let my old classic beast go to a new home where she will be looked after im sure
she only had 2159 miles on her and the sound of those pipes when they crackled made me cry (two stroke fumes im sure)
anyway she is happy as she now lives in a heated air conditioned private collection
with about 250 other bikes
boo hoo

You must be gutted selling that I had flashes of my youth just looking at it, Oh so long ago.
What is that in the background, I see a Yamaha (250 400) and is the red one a Guzzi Californian????
Looked again it's not a Guzzi, what is it?

My wife is very understanding, she understands that if I am in the garage I am not in the house annoying her.

I think you are right, a HD it is. Not my cup of tea but nice to look at. Makes me wish I was twenty again

What stunning example! Always had a soft spot for these mad two stroke triples, and you hardly ever see them around these days.

Sold my RG 500 for a house deposit, many years ago.
Remember Swarbrick pipes, the sound of the 80's !

Evil things...had a 500cc Triple seize on me at around 80mph.
Promised myself I'd never have another two-stroke after that....and went a bought a GT750
