    I think the GPZ1100 looks so much more elegant than the monstrosities of today. A friend went from a 350 LC to one of these! Brave guy.

    I had one of these a month after passing my test in 1985. A real rocket but if I remember right the frame was a bit flexible

    Had multiple 250/350LC at the same time, but this was my favourite distance riding machine. With Alpha41 exhaust 4 into 1 , it was finished just under the bike and so much lighter and better note. Miss it

    I had a 82 GPZ-750 loved that bike, I'm 6'5" tall my stature was just a little to big for it, wish I still had it though. I traded it in on a 87 CBR-1000 Hurricane, wish I still had it too. But my 2001 CBR-1100 Blackbird still gets my juices flowing. Absolutely beautiful Bike. I want one... red or green would fit my stature just fine!!!

    I go up here quite often in the summer on my Suzuki GT380, it looks strangely different from your helmet cam. Beautiful GPz by the way.
