    Got to be my old RD350LC, more grins per mile than any other bike I've ever owned ;D. But it was also the least reliable :'(

    I know you are all going to p**s yourselves laughing, but the best bike I ever owned was my honda C70 step-thru back in the early eighties. Obviously it was not the fastest, best handling bike in the world, but what a bullet proof engine. I had it for about 4 years, in which time I only cleaned the plug twice and never changed the oil. I used to fly round the country lanes in Lincolnshire and thrash the boll***s out of it - the leg shields were no more and despite my best efforts It refused to blow-up. Once I got in the slip-stream of a lorry going down a steep hill and I reckon I was doing near 70mph - You know that noise when the engine is screaming because you are travelling faster then the engine will allow. I'm grinning just thinking about the fun I had on Honda's venerable little gem. ;D

    I was lucky enough to get offered a go on one, by a guy I had only just met outside Phoenix Motorcycles...
    Running through town I wondered what all the fuss was about. Uncomfortable, ran like a bag of crap, long 1st gear...





    Then I hit some open road. All I can say is, it's not often a bike gives me blurred vision... [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

    Best all round bike, 1998 CBR600. Owned it from new, did everything on it, i.e. training, touring fully loaded with the Mrs and luggage, riding like a tw*t with my mates, wheelies, stoppies, 58000 miles in three and a half years, and it never missed a beat... [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

    Best bike for going fast, 1999 R1. Scared the crap out of people when it first came out. Loved the way it would lift the front wheel anywhere, at any speed. Did loads of stuff on it, including a couple of track days, then a season of racing... [smiley=happy.gif]

    Both bikes were run in exactly by the book. Both were serviced on time everytime. Both were dyno'd and proved to have a fair bit more HP than quoted by the factory. Happy days...
