R80 GS Basic

A few of the vj23......

















Genuine lucky strike vj23 getting rare now so another keeper. I rode it up and down the village and it's so nice and the smell.....Castrol R just takes you back 30 years

Well done, you'll not be needing a new copycat scrambler now you've got the real thing

We need picture of a full sized grown up riding the little RGV through the village!


This isn't helping me resist finding and buying a KR1 either!

 

[Florence]

More like an over sized grown up

Florence you are spoiling us ,Smashin

How was the seat to peg fit? I need the seat lifted an inch on my RG, plus an extra inch of foam, to get my fat arse/bolloxed knees onto it, unless i lift my feet up by the heels.

Please tell me it's crippling, so I don't have to buy a KR1 before summer arrives!

Put it like this Mark, I won't be riding it any more! It's just a nice thing to have

 

[markjackson]

Phew, that's OK then, I'm not missing out on two-stroke racing between bus-shelters. I can stick to something much more comfy and sensible, that fits me fine.

Well done Paul.....that's at least two collectors items in your back shed now

 

[Nice 'n' Fat]

Indeed Kenny

The Z1300 is going strong and always draws a crowd whenever and wherever it's parked

I was considering a fully restored CBX1000 to park along side it but the Basic won the day

 

[Florence]

Paul, you did the right thing. I don't miss my CBX at all and I think they have topped out now but the mighty gs is still going up. The CBX are not as much fun either.

 

[Nice 'n' Fat]

A couple more shite photos

 

[Florence]

That looks an absolute belter! I prefer them without the crash bars. It's got a proper side stand too

 

[markjackson]

Utterly lovely!

 

[Kenny]

Yup, as above...look's a good 'un; well done !

 

[Robbo1200ADV]

[steve hughes]
