What bike was your first indicated ton on?

GS550E

I lusted after anything that said 500, or above, or anything bigger than a 125 that said RD, RG, or KR.

However, in 1988 I was a poor, poor 17 year old student (play that small violin for me, orchestra), the shelf stacking job only paid so much, and the parents wouldn't fund it. So, GPz 305 it was - we all have our cross to bare.

Only reason i could afford my 550 was someone died and left my mum a few quid. She gave my brother, sister and my £1k so i just passed my test and started to bike hunt. This thing had a crap Canary yellow paint job and sat in Ernie Pages bike shop for long enough. It got reduced by about £50 every month. Anyway im sure i handed over £700 for it. Loved the overweight pig.

CB400F... on the newly opened stretch of the M20 that bypassed Brands Hatch... used to be dead quiet.

Gpz305 if I knew then what I know about them now I would have probably stayed below 70
It was on the a3 heading back to Putney, the bit that's proper dual carriageway

I may have fibbed above, I changed tyres for a mate on his zx10b , he gave me the keys, I went up to tibbets corner and on the way back to the garage I hit a ton
