Yeah, I served my apprenticeship commuting in all weathers on a Z650 in the early '80's (my knees still suffer from the cold), then moved to 'Sunday Biker' status when I bought a GPZ750 Turbo in '87, then had some fantastic times on some sports 2-strokes (KR1S's - best fun per £ ever conceived).
Last bike was a ZX6R.Sold it 6 years ago. As you can gather, I was always fond of 'giant killers'!
I find now though, that to use a bike as I'd like to, I'd end up either banned or damaged, what with speed bumps, speed cameras, helicopters in Wales etc. And of course, Mr Sunday Driver.
So now I try to convince myself that a soft-top is more comfortable in summer as I don't need helmet and leathers. And the air-con is lovely.
Nope, doesn't work, that argument, does it?
