Just wondering if any of you guys is into bikes as well as the Vibe. I love riding my GSXR1100 so I didn't need the Vibe GT... "saved" some cash there

Chris: Doesn't look like there are bikers here does it? Do former biker's count? I think we discussed before my old RZ350 and RZ500's. Those were and probably will be my last bikes. Many happy memories.My RZ350 looked something like this below w/o the seat cover, different graphics. I had replaced the reed valves with some kind of plastic one, safer in the event of failure, increased the bottom end immensely. I told my Mom I bought it because it was loud, fast, looked great and also because she hated it (mean eh?). Then I fell in love with the idea of the 1985 RZ500. Told Mom it was louder, faster, had an even better look and she would hate it more because I took out a bank loan. In it's day you would need a liter bike to beat it, but it was so peaky and exciting the RZ would deliver more smiles/mile than anything around. The sound of that V4 two stroke screaming at 10,000 rpm was indescribable. Wish I had a sound file. Many happy memories. This one below is going for $6,200 U.S. I would love a new 600 sport bike but I would never get anything done all summer. Maybe after I retire I will get back into biking. For now I will enjoy the small, overachieving Vibe Keep it upright

Haha, thanks Frosty!I can't believe you owned two of my most favourite bikes! Granted my GSXR is an amazing race bike but, wow, to have an RZ of either size.Thanks for the dream pictures
