I'm down to an R75/7 BMW and two Sportsters, a 1975 and a 2005. I sold
my 1996 Triumph Daytona 1200 a few years ago, soon after my Ducati 900
Super Sport. My wrists couldn't take the load imposed by the clip on
bars anymore. The Norton Atlases were sold to buy a house in '86.

I've owned three 45s, a 62 Panhead, a '78 shovel and a fairly hot Evo
that followed a new 1988 1200 Sporty. The vibration on the 1200 was
obscene. You literally couldn't cruise at 65 to 75 MPH without loosening
your fillings..

Your shameful and rather immature attitude towards Japanese motorcycles
is the exact reason why South Park made the show about Harley riders.
The Japs put millions of people on Motorcycles who might otherwise not
have had the inclination.

The worst Japanese bikes I've owned were a pair of Kawasaki 500 triples.
They were called the world's first disposable motorcycle. You had to put
new rings in every 12,000 miles and the fuel mileage was obscenely BAD.

My best Japanese bike was a 1975 water cooled Suzuki 750. It used less
oil than a four stroke and was still running two years ago. It probably
still is, I haven't talked to the owner since my move.
