bigpants Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 Hi there everyone. Just introducing myself before letting loose with all the questions about my non-running bike. Im 48 , ridden a bike every day for the last 32 years (except when on holiday or in hospital) , im a club racer (crmc) and i live in a cabin in a beautiful bluebell woods with no electricity. I bought my '87-88 1100h slabby about 10 years ago for £400 ! It was my first big bike and i loved it to bits , i especially loved the way it tried to throw me off on almost every journey. When it packed up about 7 years ago it got replaced by a guzzi 1100 sport cafe racer , then a vtr1000 firestorm . Ive also got an aprillia rs125 , a Gurls blouse nv50 stream (you gotta see one of those to believe how fugly they are), a homemade kx500 streetfighter , a 1986 Gurls blouse rs125 nd4 race bike and im currently working on a maico 620 2-stroke streetfighter. Im riding the stripped down guzzi at the moment but that never lasts for long and i keep looking longingly at the slabby so last week i wheeled it into my living room , i should have remembered to refit the oil cooler , my floorboards will never recover. So now im surrounded by tools and say what now!? bits and puddles of oil , empty beer cans and full ashtrays , at least its still summer. Quote Link to comment

I'll try to get some pics of mine uploaded when i can but in the mean time just do a google images search for 'kx500 streetfighter' . Mines usually the first that comes up , all black and shiney.

I like the Guzzi Sport 1100 myself but the other mods here will probably delete it, like any other off-topic pics. We are a special bunch here. Anyway, welcome to OSS Quote Link to comment
