The AB Motor Bike Club

Just stole an idea from Dave and Sibton. xxx

For me it would have to be a Kawasaki 750
(It's the only one I know)

What colours are we going for?

[Kiki-frog]

Bro-in-law is doing up an old Triumph Bonneville, which is just gorgeous. (And I don't particularly like bikes.) It's black and named Abbie after his black cat. I'm tempted to nick it so that I can join.

[sunny-dave]

Got to be the Kwak lime green then ...

[Mick-Talbot]

Give it them back ...... it will be lonely

Here's my pride & joy having a holiday in Dartmoor ...

I'm going to be very tempted by one of these if (when) I get a pay rise...

oooh black bikes are just so, err, well, masculine and pulsating.
The take a lot of cleaning though to keep them nice and shiney.

Lime green for a bike, whoever thunked that should be hung drawn and quartered.
I fell of a Kawasaki once and hurt my botty.

Lift your aim a bit Chuck - this is better for touring (was a close thing between it and the Vara) ...

I'd want something I can stick a set of proper knobbly tyres on and go green laning, the 990 is a little to big for that really.

[sunny-dave]

True - you'd never big the bugger up if you dropped it :)

[sunny-dave]

'pick'

[snags]

FS1E in bright yellow... hear me roar (from about a quarter of a mile away).

[ChuckFickens]

"hear me roar (from about a quarter of a mile away)."

And you'll be with them in about 25minutes....

[Baldric]

Bonneville for me 'in my day' (fondly remembered)

[sunny-dave]

Looking good snags & CD

Yamaha even left you space to get an engine:

When I rode an AJS 350 I went to look at a Matchless 500. Knew I would never hold it but now, if I can please, I will have that beautiful black bike, longer legs and my Hell`s Angel jacket that was stolen....what I paid to have that painted and studded. :-(

I have very simple tastes when it comes to bikes.

Or Valentino Rossi's Yamaha M1 in retro colour scheme, as used at Laguna Seca a few years ago:

p.s. A Kwacker in anything other than Kawasaki Green ISN'T A Kawasaki!
