rancid, you are a long way from old so that may still happen!
 
Wuputt, you sound like you are talking from experience ! :D :rotf: :stir: CHRIS
 
Is that a hint that you want us to bring birthday cards in March Blag? If I can make it that is.
 
44 and.......on never mind i will just shut the hell up!
 
I was riding a LTD 550 back then and looking at the ZL

Me too ! exactly that.
At the time, I worried a bit about moving up from a 550 to a 900.
I must have looked at it a dozen times on the showroom floor before deciding.
And it was awesome - awesome - and more awesome once I rode it home!
 
Wow...again with the age reminders....yup traded in my '83 LTD 1100 for the ZL1000A-1. Buddie of mine at the time had just gotten the hot new GSXR....Blew the paint off hiz....well come to think of it I blew the paint off of everything I raced back then....then that **** V-Max! Remembering the girl I was with....the music scene...$10 whole dollars an hour. How am I still alive?
Oh one more thing...I remember thinking the day I rode her home in '87 "what a huge ass bike"...Now she sitz next to the C-14 looking like a 600

For a minute there thought he was talking about the girl he was with ! ROFL
I am 42 *UGH!* and in 86 I had sold my 73 Suzuki Titan 500 and 49 Harley pan head and bought my first Kawasaki road bike from a major on my AF base it was a 1982 KZ750 Spectre and I fell in love with the Kawi inline 4's! And in 87 I was still stationed out in the mojave desert and the local Kaw shop I patronized got in a new 87 ZL1000 and I drooled and pinned for that bike as at the time I couldnt afford it and 2 months later was sent to Korea!
 
I have the brain of a 20 year old and the body of a 40 year old. There both in the trunk of my car if you ever want to see them! But I'm really 50 myself. Owned ( and still own) a boatload of bikes and still love to ride.
 
Will be 52 in a couple of months and I certainly don't act this old! I've always ridden these ZL's to resemble a bat out of HELL and still do. Back in 1985, I owned a '75 Z1900 that groomed me for the ZL. Went into the dealership one day just to "look" at the new models but would not walk outta' there without that gorgeous red ZL.....gave $3452.50 in cash, out the door!!!! No bike has ever done it for me like the ZL has........then and now!! Mark
