Nice CX turbo

Post by Asian Boss »

I like the look of this:

I suspect it'd be an ok bike to ride round on (gently!) too.

It looks like a nice one. Surely an appreciating classic? (Aren't they all!)

If that was £5k or under I'd be on the way to collect it, always liked 'em and yeah I know they're rubbish ;)

Don't think it's a bike to ride, too old and sophisticated (for then), spares may be a problem, although you might get some of the bits the numbers built were limited. I don't think its something you could easily maintain yourself.

That's what I think, but compared to some of the horrors posted recently that's actually pleasing to the eye :lol:

I was gonna buy a new GSXR but it hasn't got a turbo gauge so it's shite :banana-wrench:
