Title: OLD & NEW
Post by: Doc_Rossi46 on Tuesday, 23 January 2018, 06:41 AM
Hello my fellow 1400 owners. Here is my 3 last bikes. First one is a 2001 Yamaha R1. I bought it on the same day Glasgow airport was attacked in 2007. I owned it for 3 months before writing it off  :doh: next bike was the Kawasaki, 2006 model and was absolute mint condition (can currently be seen for sale on Colwins Motorcycles website, Sittingbourne) Which btw has a very nice 1979 fully restored Honda Goldwing  :onya: Anyway I P/X it for my current bike  :worshippy:  :smitten: my GSX 1400

Short answer for losing the kwacker .... money  :frustrated: :thumbs_down: I loved the Kawasaki It was very easy to ride  :onya: But it was only a 650cc twin ... So the other reason for losing the Kwacker .... As Scotty says to Captain Kirk .. We're going to need more power captain  :rofl2: :onya:
