with apologies to Ogden Nash...
Still with that shamefully awful front brake, which wasn't really up to the job of stopping a Bonneville (c. 100lbs. lighter).Kind of mildly interesting that a 750 is almost a learner displacement nowadays.
Even a 500 was a man’s bike, now it’s definitely just a starter bike. Of course, cars used to be 1200cc:-)
I've always had Japanese bikes but have a certain fascination with the British last-gasp bikes (and triples). I may have to own one:-)
