Always regret selling my GSXR750 SRAD. 1996 and one of the first in the UK and the last of the carburettor bikes. I cut my track day teeth on it and it was a dream to ride.

I remember following an SRAD 750 on a track day. They were very quick and handled beautifully.

Selling my father's 1997 Honda GL 1500C... This bike was a beast but we were up to our ears in debt and had no other choice. I hope I can buy it back one day.

All of them. But No1 equal place would be my 1976 and 1977 Suzuki GT750 strokers. 76 was the candy orange and 77 was end of the line Black. Both rebuilt to very high standard and would easily contribute to an early retirement now.

My 2004 Aprilia SL1000R, traded it in for a Suzuki VStrom 650 back in at KC Superbikes Carlisle in 2016.

I needed something to commute on that didn't trigger of my sciatica like sitting in the car or to a lesser extent the Falco.
Load of fun on that bike and keep hoping that one day it'll appear up for sale when I've got a bit of spare cash.
