I like the black & white striped one!

[Imapo]

I don’t see a motorcycle in the first two pictures.

[Still-One]

I will have to see if I can dig out the picture of our 500.

[Macuser]

I took a 500 triple out for a good spin back in the day. Pretty fast for it's day. The surge you got after backing off the throttle kept things interesting while slowing for a corner

[Chubba]

I had the 400.Lots of fun.

[Formerly YB-2]

Other than the hinge in the middle of the frame they were 'fun' motorcycles. The 400 was the best of the bunch in stock form. The engines in the larger models overwhelmed their frames/ suspensions.

when I was young a friend was almost killed on this bike. Someone pulled out in front of him while traveling 55mph.

[PHC1]

Yes I do remember seeing them around. I was into motorcycles since I was 10 or 11... I believe it was 1985? When I walked into a store and laid my eyes on the brand new then Suzuki GSXR. I knew right there and then that futuristic rocket ship will change the whole course of motorcycles. Major Lust.

I guess if your wife sees the 2 girls around your bike, she would make herself a widow
