@@woooster17 Your most welcome My Friend,and I too,am an "OCD" polisher of my bikes as well! I cannot have ONE SPECK of dirt/dust on them before or after they leave/enter my garage area!!! lol. So I fully understand where your coming from!
@pauledmonds3249 Thanks Paul, really appreciate that.. & quite agree, it's aged so well considering it's a 35 year old design! It's not a bike I will sell anytime soon 😁👍
@@shauncamden4259 Cheers Shaun, definitely get yours finished mate, would also like to see and hear 😁 I realised after I put the bike away that I should’ve done a quick start 🤦🏻 Next time 😇👍🏼
A beautiful example of the ZXR 750. I remember seeing one exactly the same in the window of my local Kawasaki dealer when it was brand new, I knew I had to have one. Sadly I couldn't afford it. Many years later I did manage to buy an L2 version and I loved it. A few years after that I ended up working at Suzuki UK and purchased a TL1000R W. My brother had an (SRAD) GSXR 750 too. I really enjoyed your video. Thank you for sharing, enjoy your lovely collection 🍻.
@Thesausagemonkey Thank you for the great comment, really much appreciated 👍 I have similar memories of seeing the first ZXR's & just wanting one badly, but also couldn't afford 😄 I love all my bikes, for different reasons.. & all of them make smile. The TLR is still a great bike even today.. Thanks again for the comment my friend 😊🙏
@@ThesausagemonkeyI haven’t as yet, but would like too.. The weather hasn’t helped, bit of a crappy summer so far.. It also depends on where the meets are as I have a major back injury (ex police, an arrest that blew out 2 lumbar discs etc etc) that sometimes prevents me actually riding.. But yeah, would love to get some bikes to a bike meet or 2 😊🤙🏽
@@woooster17 I'm sorry to hear about your injury. I'm not sure if there is a way of sending you a private message? There are certain bits of info that I don't want to share via this medium. Let me know 😉
I just bought a 91 vfr750 yesterday 19 K miles new tires brakes aftermarket exhaust runs perfect put body panels need some paintwork paid 1800 dollars US
Sounds like you got yourself a great bike Brian, & a bargain.. This is my first ever VFR.. I should have bought one years ago, as its such a great bike. The build quality is streets ahead of the other bikes! 👌 Enjoy your new purchase my friend, ride safe 😊👍
I think I spotted a finger print just left of the tank lid on the ZXR! Seriously tho man plan a holiday to Australia, bring the ZXR, and I’ll take you for a tour of the wineries through the Adelaide hills and along the coast!👊
@kawakarma Lol 😂 Well spotted, I have polished the whole bike again..just to ensure I got this finger print removed 😂😂👍 That would be so awesome.. would love to do that 😁🤘 Appreciate the comment as always mate 😊
@@22jeepmojave75 Cheers mate, I had one of these many years ago too so always wanted another one.. And it still rides superbly, I just love this bike. Appreciate the comment 😁👍🏼
It’s difficult to match that green paint ( it fades slightly and so whilst the new paint is ‘correct’ it obviously hasn’t faded same as original paint has … risky but you could try cutting polish on the original 🤷🏻♂️)
@@stevedavies-pp7dp Cheers Steve, It is difficult, one of the worst tbh.. great colour, but hard to match. I have done some gentle cutting and polishing, but I can still see some subtle differences in shade.. So my ocd is triggered 😂🤦🏻 hence why I am going to send the bike to Dream Machine for a full paint restoration.. This bike is my favourite & the last I’d sell, so I have no issues putting money into it 😁👍🏼 Really appreciate the comment mate, ride safe 😎🤙🏽
If WW3 or a financial collapse doesn't happen this year. I'll get my green one on the road again next year. I've ridden 1200 miles on my H1 this past 3 months. Out of curiosity does your H2 charge the battery as it should? The rectifier is within the generator/alternator. A notorious issue that they have. You'll only know if you go for a long ride and check the voltage. That's why I have those cigarette usb voltmeter things on the nose cone frame. Best regards.
@colinmaddocks9352 Things are not great generally, but let's hope things don't get that bad.. Fingers crossed Labour will get their act together & make things better Definitely get your green ZXR on the road.. they deserve to be ridden 😊 The max I'll ever do is 50 miles as I have major back issues, but the bike charges fine.. not had an issue. I also keep them all on trickle chargers in the garage.
Meh, me and a mate semi-restored one of these 20 years ago, and my Aprilia RS 250 would whip it in all aspects. We sold it for profit then moved on to some fun motards
@@AnythingEvil78 True, but the RS250 is totally different flyweight bike.. I had a KR1 & bought a new RGV250P in ‘93 and they were both incredible bikes..for their size. It’s a 34 year old more mature lady these days.. so it’s ridden with the sympathy & respect it deserves 😉 Lots of bikes out there, lots of choice.. One man’s dream bike is another man’s ‘meh’ Appreciate the comment.. Ride safe mate 👍🏼
In all aspects except long term reliability or any endurance racing,also,you have to be well endowed down there to fully enjoy big girls and every boy with toothpicks instead of wrists could ride motards and 2 stroke 250's(love them both to hell,not gonna lie) and the real man cannot say "meh" to a classic like this but then,I suppose you're just gonna tell "anything evil"
OMG,the PAINT on this machine,is FLAWLESS!!! Well done Sir!!!

Still looks like a spaceship now, never mind in 1990, fabulous machine.

Gloriously beautiful machine.
@MrBoybergs Thank you MrB, I very much appreciate that 👍 These older bikes still have something about them.. I just love the 90s paint schemes 😊👌
You’ve got some cracking bikes there. Seeing your ZXR gees me on to get mine done. Please fire her up!!

Cant wait to see the results of the "new" paint job💚
@@2Fast4You-636 Me too! 😁 Taking care of all the little things that trigger my ocd would be awesome 😎👌
Nice H2, I had one painted in Pagetts colours, an MCN mothball competition prize back in the day.
@@bpenny4352 Nice, Pagetts rainbow colours..😎👌 What a thing to win, I've never won anything like that in my life 😂👏

You should do an on bike video of the TL1000, nothing heroic, just a pure sounds vid of normal riding round the lanes. That will sounds lovely 😍❤️💕
@@575ban I do have an old GoPro Hero 6, I’ll have to see if I can get some exhaust sounds 😎 Cheers for the comment & suggestion 😊👍🏼
@@woooster17 oh yes please. Buy an external mic and pop it in your back pack. Makes a huge improvement on exhaust sound quality 👌👍
cool 👍 😎 🆒️
