    gaawwwdd...

    Lusting over old bikes from way back is akin to lusting over old
    girlfriends.

    "What on earth was I thinking!"

    Too fat, too ugly, too old, too noisy, too expensive to run, too much
    trouble, saggy springs and suspension, too demanding....

    But there of course can only ever be one "first time" around the block :)

    My local wallet-emptying wrecker has a VT500E motor for sale... for a
    grossly inflated price.

  10. Just outside Granton on this year's toy run, I passed my old VF1000R,
    still running but looking very tired ...
