My upstairs neighbour has just brought home the Yamaha TRX 850 (I think thats right, twin cyclinder trellis framed poor mans duke) that he's been customising. Its stripped down minimalist now in the street fighter look, its very cool and its making me itchy about getting a proper geared bike again :roll:
I keep finding myself either wanting a Yamaha SDR200, a grey imported madass 2 stroke single from the 80's Jap home market or a Yamaha FZ600 the aircooled XJ600 motored stopgap they came up with before the FZR made its debut. I love 80's Jap bikes but I was a teenager then and into motorbikes not mtb's. Sensible head though says a Suzuki GS500 is more my thing of which there are thousands to choose from :roll:
Cash shortages though mean the Status Quo continues for a while longer
