Luis,

I had an FZR400 and it was fun but they are really under powered. Either that or I was already used to the larger machines (had a FR750 ex-race bike before it).

the most comfortable machine I ever rode so far was my very first bike.... 93 kawi ninja 600 model c different carb setup then the d model I beleive not to sure... but thin not very long and had some power to her could stand her up pretty easy and handled in the corners really nice.... now one of my favorite show off bikes was a 94 suzuki rf600rr.... rare bike so im told.... but that thing had some acceleration wow... took her to about 162 163ish and smooooth as gliding on air.... but killed my back cause I have short arms.. i think its gonna be the same deal with this hurricane not sure havnt taken her for a spin yet....

I posted a new album of the ninja and the rf600rr if you guys wanna see them the RF was a nice show bike

Hi IMO,

I had also a Genesis like 6 years ago when I started to drive "big" machines, at the time for me it was the fastest thing on earth, got plenty of fun with her.

Unfortunately that engine did not sold well here so spare parts were difficult to find, I know that FZR 600 were much better but did not have the $$$ to get one

Wildcard would be the Kawasaki H2 500 triple 2 stroke
The H2 was a 750 2 stroke triple, the 500 was the H1,
I would probably do something unscrupulous for a nice "period correct" modded H2, (Chambers, porting, nice pistons, etc.),
As for the rest, I'd like an original Z1, Yammie RD350 or 400, a Blackbird, maybe a bellybutton Busa, probably a ZX14, and the rest would have to be bikes I built myself,

Hmmm only five bikes thats a tough call,
Race tuned Yamaha RD500YPVS in Marlboro colours (for phsyco days)
Ducati Desmo in Mike Halwood's colours (for posing)
Benelli 900sei cafe race trim (for more posing)
Yamaha RD400E (coz it was my first grown up bike) (got to be yellow & Allspeed pipes)
Kawazaki GPZ1000RX in Lime green (for every day fun)
My wild card would be a BSA Gold Star (something to tinker with)
