Hey......as my Son would say.
Posted: Wed Apr 10, 2013 5:39 pmErrr Hey!!
Hello!
My name is Paul aka Yogi,arrived on this planet back in 62,so have been around a while!
Love the old air oil cooled bikes,had many in the past...including a Kat Thou,Ol slabby 11 and so on. Always promised myself another Kat but they are like rocking horse bollox.
Been on a diet of modern machinery for a while....had 2 ZX10R first gen models,awesome bikes!!!...and other litre bikes but....BUT they just dont have....s....s.s......s......soul!! Not like the 80s and 90s bikes. So I went back to a bike I had in the late 90s [bike owned at the time was my first ZX10R] and played with that, ZRX1100,fitted modern running gear,tuned the engine and had a whale of a time...then came the urge for another sports bike,my second ZX10R,again wicked bike but soon missed the old ways.Sold the ZX10R and bought another bike I had back in 2000,my current bike a TL1000S...just love these [this is my third TL] hoon tools!!!
To bring you up to date...you still with me?....
......I have recently bought myself a project,its a GSX1100EF [84],this shares garage space with Tillis. This is one of those bikes that has been on my get list,in my favourite colour Red and Black. Needs some work. Not going to leave it standard,saying thatits not standard anyway,got a ZX10B forks and wheels fitted. Guessing someone off of here will know its history.
And I know its not air oil cooled old skool stylee but my Tillis.
Looking forward to getting to know you and pick your brains!!
