Re: Your single ICE motorcycle
I've never ridden a bike more tiring than my mates old kr1-s. I rode my 90s gpz1100-e1 up to Lancaster and we went out for the day. I rode around in 3rd and he worked like a loon. We swapped over for half an hour and I was breathing out my arse after 10 minutes.

Re: Your single ICE motorcycle
1. Fuck that for a game of soldiers, I've got a car for transport
2. Hence my regular "what newer bike shall I buy" threads, I really enjoy riding bikes from the 80s, but they all require regular attention to keep running and it gets a bit annoying.

Re: Your single ICE motorcycle
When you say motorbike, I think I'd go for a car. And when you say ICE, I think I'd go for electric.

Re: Your single ICE motorcycle
I think late 70s early 80s bikes excite me the most, because that was the era I was really into bikes. So, maybe a RD250/400e/f? Or maybe a Kwak Z of some description?

Re: Your single ICE motorcycle
Mates BIL has a Moto Martin CBX rotting outside in his garden
Not the CBX,but that Henry Cole bloke has got his cohorts rebuilding a Moto Martin Suzuki on the Motorbike show .
Bikes from the early to mid eighties hold the most appeal for me,so if I could only have one bike it would be a 350LC.
Being an old fart I don't want something porky or cumbersome for moving around & much as I'd like a 4XV R1
I know at my age it would be wasted on me.The 350LC would tick most boxes,gotta love a two stroke!

Re: Your single ICE motorcycle
I had a 4XV R1, easily the most mental bike I've ever ridden, and probably the most fun, but that fun is all on the illegal side of 100mph, it was a hateful thing to ride at legal speeds.
