from a falco to this....

#1 Post by Steve_P » Wed Jul 01, 2009 9:27 pm

well I didnt like the huge gsx1100 powerscreen I bought, its was 266 kilos dry and was just too big and heavy, so got this instead to replace the falco

1986 gsx 750 "pop-up" katana, rides well, its fairly quick and handles nicely considering the ancient suspension and skinny tyres. Got it for £900, its a world away from the falco, but at least I've got 2 wheels to ride around on

Nice. Not seen one of those for a bit.

I had a GSX1100efe for a good while as a commuter. 16 inch front wheel makes the handling a bit sharp and although I couldn't find it there is a hinge in the frame somewhere.

that bike in pb was lovely, a lot of modded ones seem to end up with the air cooled engine removed and a later gsxr or bandit motor in. Nice to see one looking so good, with very tastefull mods.
