So, what's it to be?
We all have an idea of what bike we would like to restore or ride next.
I think it could be a 125, KMX, DT, TZR or something like that. It depends on what turns up at a reasonable price and condition.
So what bike/project would you like next? |

Got no space for another bike. Got no time for fettling any more either.
If we're lacking anything, it's something I can just jump on, stick the missus on the back, and head off on for a couple of hundred miles. Since I sold my GSX-R1100, everything we currently have is too small, temperamental or impractical for long trips and/or two-up riding. I am thinking of filling that gap again.
It'd have to be a biggish four-stroke, so (for me) that means Suzuki. GSX1400, 1100EFE, Katana 750 pop-up, XN85, another GSX-R1100 or maybe a first-model GSX-R1000. |

That's a bloody good question.
Far too many strokers I would like to own but like Strokerboy, I need something that I can just jump on & not give a hoot about if it's raining or if it's not been cleaned for six months.
I have to admit my next bike will be a four stroke (cos it fits the criteria) & i'm looking for either a Dzr400 or a Klx250. |

Ooh, or a GS1200SS, I forgot about those. But definitely not a Bandit.

I have got no space or time for another bike, but if i could have another it would be a R1-Z or a SDR200. Still trying to find money and time to finish four 2 stroke projects. |
