I was going to say the WN was an evil handling pig, but it wasn't evil handling, it was just a pig, amazing things cradle framed GSXR750s, the first ones from 1985 are the best, and the last ones are the worst, they gain weight as they get newer without gaining a lot of power.The Spin Doctor wrote: Sun Apr 18, 2021 10:28 pmAh the WNLe_Fromage_Grande wrote: Sun Apr 18, 2021 9:24 pm A mate had a WN in those colours, worst GSXR I've ridden, heavy and long, anyway matey with the drill will be really happy when his brake lever snapsHappy days
....ish!
I had the blue, white and pink one. Straight line bus. it wasn't the most nimble machine I've ever ridden. I remember it as the season when Jamie Whitham was throwing his race bike into the scenery at regular intervals. He had a HUGE crash at the second half of the gooseneck at Cadwell right in front of me.
The worst-handling bike I rode was the CB550FK. That wanted to slap the tank every single bloody roundabout. The WN just wanted to go straight over!Le_Fromage_Grande wrote: Wed Apr 21, 2021 2:36 pm

Apparently it's a THING!
You might be glad of that if the Luftwaffe starts any of their nonsense again.

My neighbour has the same on his Thruxton.
