    My first bike was a Suzuki TS185. Rode it every where. Vibrated, had awful brakes and basic suspension. I loved it.

    I bought a Honda 750 in 1975, rode a friends GT750 and knew I'd made the wrong choice. Never did get round to owning the Suzuki and now ride a Triumph Speed Twin 1200. Enjoy your rides.

    A couple of months ago, I had the opportunity to ride a Waterbottle, a great motorcycle. I get my two-stroke fix with a 1972 TS90 Suzuki.

    Kevin you and I speak the same language - I had a new GT750A and it was a brilliant bike. Preferred it to the Z1 and CB750 I had owned.

    It was Britain that christened the Suzuki GT750 the kettle, America doesn't even know what a kettle is.
