« on: May 24, 2013, 08:05:14 PM »
Hi all,
I have just joined up as i thought I finally had the right qualification. Bought a 1998 ST1100 this evening. It needs a bit of work in the cosmetic department, but I will get that done. It will be joining my GV650 in the garage early next week.

A bit about me, I have been riding on and off for 25 years, mostly off until 4 years ago when I started riding more seriously.(like almost daily)

Over the years I have owned:

Yamaha  SRX 250
Suzuki GT380 ( taken out to 440)
Yamaha XT250
Kawasaki ZZR 250
Hyosung GV650

Cheers for now,

Hendo68

Howdy Hendo!  I used to dream of a GT380 when I first considered riding (1976).  I eventually rode the big brother (GT750K) for a few years from 1978.
