    English bikes went barmy when the lads who used to have them got to their 50's and had spare money ( kids away no mortgage ) so about 20 years ago but they are 70's 80's now and are too old or die off. So me like you "DEL - BABY " 50's 60's missed the English bikes, I just don't remember them. I just love jap bikes - suzuki ( Barry sheen) yami - kawi honda are the bikes I remember as a kid and my first bike a yammie. So now I have 2 suzukies one honda one bmw and ok it was an impulse buy and for years I was embarrassed to admit I have one but after 25 still have it a harley - but I've had a few yammies rd 250 2 strokes and want another . Point for rant we are right age so jap bikes constant and will rise for another 20 years.

    Errrrr I remember chopping one ie resprayed (rattle can)chopped back mudguard indicators off - I thought it was cool. Cam chain tensioner was rattling like mad and very smokey- so I flogged it for £800 and put it towards a new bike ( I still have that - it's worth about £3000 now) errrr wish I kept it ( z900)
