Hello from not so sunny Macclesfield

Post by jeffers »

Now then folks please be gentle,

just thought i would say hello, been into bikes for the last 30+ years, currently on my 2nd GS1200, a 2010 model, i also have a 97 kdx200 for green laning and a 76 suzuki GT750, thats in a million pieces at the minute while i decide whether to restore to original or make a special (what do you reckon?)

regular Euro trips, with her indoors, i also run a lads trip from work + others in May to the french and belgium battlefields.

Just going into a forced layoff, as i go into hospital next week for some surgery, so no biking for me this side of chrimbo:(

Thats all for now

Geoff

Welcome to the site Geoff and about that GT750, it has to be original. One of my fav bikes from back then.

Now that you're a member make sure you take your laptop into surgery and keep up to date with the site. :)

Hope all goes well for you and you're back in the saddle fit and well soon.

Hello Geoff,
Great motorcycling/cycling country you are in, I hope that you get back into it soon.
I had a kettle in 1979, they are a great bike and have seen some nice specials, including a couple of monoshocked models, I'll add to your confusion by voting for a special.

thanks for the welcome, the kettle is proving a dilemma, i really do fancy a special, upside down forks, modern rear end to accept fatter tyre... but then again

anyway thanks again for the welcome, i may do a first and post some pics from this years trips to while away the hours.

Geoff
