I passed my test on one of them. I even managed to wheelie it[1][2]. Good luck to you. [1] In typical ham-fisted learner, rev the tits of it when stationary and then dump the clutch sort of way.

Aww, and you could've had a ZXR400SP too. Too late now, it's sold and on it's way for a bit of fettling before being ridden around the IOM a lot faster than I could've done it. -- Lesley CBR600 FW SBS#11[with oak-leaf cluster] BOTAFOT#101A UKRMHRC#12 BONY#54P BOB#18 Real burds don't take hormones, they rage naturally Un-cork me to reply
Heh, me too. Bloody hell that was almost a year ago, time has flown by.

A 250 was made, IIRC. -- Dan L (Oldbloke) My Bike 2000 Honda CB500 M'boy's Bike 1990 Suzuki TS50X (Heavily fortified) BOTAFOT #140, DIAABTCOD #26
And fine little bikes they are if you don't mind not going over 70 mph or if you don't mind being vibrated into next week. Also if you don't mind having to 'encourage' them around bends. Very low seat suits girlies. Very high bars suits no-one. I believe they also made a 500 thumper - I should think the vibration was even worse. Correction - _I_ have one in the shed that Owen is working on. And it lives, Igor, it lives! Well, it starts on the screwdriver (ignition lock now ripped out as keys long since lost), and gets filled on the screwdriver too, and now sports a new back light and number plate. It would be ready for it's first MOT in 3 years if the indicators would work in the usual 2 and two configuration instead of 3 and 1. Later it is to have better bars and orange painted tank and panels with its newly-Hammerited frame. I should take some photos. -- Marina Mayes - Reading, UK.

Yeah. I don't have a face full of zits, for starters. I'll admit to the ugly, big ears and crooked teeth, though.
Yup - one of my brothers had a SR500. Until he ran it into a ditch and crushed 2 of his vertebrae.. Phil -- Phil Launchbury, Network & Infrastructure PHB Triumph Tiger 955i "I'm training the bats who live in my cubicle to juggle mushrooms" Remove sick person to email me
It was somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember "Andrewr At Work" That's utterly priceless. -- Dave GS 850 x2 / SE 6a SbS#6 DIAABTCOD#16 APOSTLE#6 FUB#3 FUB KotL OSOS#12? UKRMMA#19 COSOC#10
Nyer nyer - as you realised, it was the 250 I was on about. I did have an SR125 to learn on. Slow it was, especially uphill. Apart from that, it was a fine little bike, ideal to learn on. -- Marina Mayes - Reading, UK. To email me remove XX from my address XV535 (sold), GPZ500S (promised), SR250 (in bits).

Well mine is. Or was. Now it's been much rebuilt, it may be much better. The back wheel was completely fucked, which may have been a cause of the vibration. Also of the bad handling. I have yet to ride it since the rebuild, as it has no MOT or tax at the moment. -- Marina Mayes - Reading, UK. To email me remove XX from my address XV535 (sold), GPZ500S (promised), SR250 (in bits).
