      Sounds like you got yourself a great bike Brian, & a bargain.. This is my first ever VFR.. I should have bought one years ago, as its such a great bike. The build quality is streets ahead of the other bikes! 👌

    You should do an on bike video of the TL1000, nothing heroic, just a pure sounds vid of normal riding round the lanes. That will sounds lovely 😍❤️💕

    A beautiful example of the ZXR 750. I remember seeing one exactly the same in the window of my local Kawasaki dealer when it was brand new, I knew I had to have one. Sadly I couldn't afford it. Many years later I did manage to buy an L2 version and I loved it. A few years after that I ended up working at Suzuki UK and purchased a TL1000R W. My brother had an (SRAD) GSXR 750 too. I really enjoyed your video. Thank you for sharing, enjoy your lovely collection 🍻.

      I have similar memories of seeing the first ZXR's & just wanting one badly, but also couldn't afford 😄 I love all my bikes, for different reasons.. & all of them make smile. The TLR is still a great bike even today..

    If WW3 or a financial collapse doesn't happen this year.
    I'll get my green one on the road again next year.
    I've ridden 1200 miles on my H1 this past 3 months.
    Out of curiosity does your H2 charge the battery as it should?
    The rectifier is within the generator/alternator.
    A notorious issue that they have.
    You'll only know if you go for a long ride and check the voltage.
    That's why I have those cigarette usb voltmeter things on the nose cone frame.
    Best regards.

      Definitely get your green ZXR on the road.. they deserve to be ridden 😊 The max I'll ever do is 50 miles as I have major back issues, but the bike charges fine.. not had an issue.
      I also keep them all on trickle chargers in the garage.

    It’s difficult to match that green paint ( it fades slightly and so whilst the new paint is ‘correct’ it obviously hasn’t faded same as original paint has … risky but you could try cutting polish on the original 🤷🏻‍♂️)
