July 9, 201410 yr Moderator "... Exxon Valdez..." Now that was a funny comment - if you can remember the reference. Errrr.......conservationists aside of course!
July 9, 201410 yr Yep your right DT, "steers like a tanker driven by a wanker" seems to come to mind.
July 10, 201410 yr Moderator All the "dreams" were horrible. How Honda could go from the 400/4 to the superdream is beyond me. I think they even tried a 400 automatic at some point. That may just be a nightmare I had many years ago though.
July 10, 201410 yr Yip The Hondamatic My mate owned a 400 Dream which I thought looked ok, but couldn't pull the skin off a rice pudding. I briefly owned a 4/4 which came immediately after my disastrous xs250, so I thought it was great, except in the wet cos it kept shorting out. Once I junked the metal clad plug caps it ran great wet or dry
July 10, 201410 yr I've had a couple 98' Aprilia rs50 04' ktm sx 125 08' ktm sx-f 250 with 280 kit 14' Yamaha XJ6 SP
July 16, 201410 yr Started my biking career 30 years ago this month! Yamaha DT125MX Yamaha XT500 Yamaha SRX600 Yamaha TRX850 Yamaha FZS400 Fazer Yamaha MT-03 Yamaha FZR600R Yamaha YZF750R. Yes, you could say I,ve got an affinity for the three tuning forks brand...
July 16, 201410 yr The problem I'm finding now is 'modern' bikes lack personality, they are just bolted together and pushed into the crate to be shipped out to anyone who takes a liking to it. Every bike Ive had has been unusual, the urban tiger, the XJ turbo, even the DT50, bikes you would never usually see sat at the traffic lights, that's why I like them, I'm never likely to see another one on the road.
