Only for 50 miles every day ( I was hoping to us it for less than a thousand miles a year http://www.turbosport.co.uk/images/smilies/wink.gif, but that plan went out of the window when the NTV gearbox turned to swarf ).
Hopefully a 1200 Bandit will join it in the garage very soon - I feel the Suzuki will make a much better commuter than the Honda http://www.turbosport.co.uk/images/smilies/smile.gif
And you can just make out my Golf Gti in the last picture- I hardly use that either, it's only got 102000 miles on it, pretty low for an August 96 I thought http://www.turbosport.co.uk/images/smilies/wink.gif
Very Nice Rob.
Sadly i might have to sell my TL1000 To get some cash in (to pay Big Dave) But i'v got a couple of Chop/Streetfighters In Bits In Mi shed so it will give me a shove to get on with building em.

I think the bright sunshine and Marks' photographic skills did it a few favours, that and the fact that it hadn't been rained on for a week or so , I do try to keep it nice, but the brake callipers and disc mounting bolts are starting to loose their newness, along with the stonechipped front fork sliders (bugger).http://www.turbosport.co.uk/images/smilies/sad.gif
The Bandit looks like a firm possibility, I just need to see the guy with my wad of folding ( had a result at the Donnington spares show - so it's time for another toy http://www.turbosport.co.uk/images/smilies/laugh.gif )
Carl m8. What S1????.
Bike front..... 750 4 Honda. Custom built frame. gigantic "Arolight" back wheel. Massiv ally braced swing arm (Both of a drag bike) plus all the other bits to put together a mean rat streetfighter/chop. OR I could use the new V4 Pan euro engine i bought ages ago (coz i KNEW it would come in handy one day)http://www.turbosport.co.uk/images/smilies/wink.gif

Rick, doh i meant s2 the one you need to sell but can`t bring yourself to doing it (very nice car btw). That 750/4 sounds like fun. 1200 Bandit engines are getting cheaper now though mate and it will fit in a 750/4 frame i know cause i fitted a 600 bandit lump in one and they are not much different. Got any pics, i spent most of last night in the garage rewiring the gs750 rat, so should have that done by next week. Will take some pics as well.http://www.turbosport.co.uk/images/smilies/tongue.gif
Allready got everything. i started it about 3 yrs ago then sort of "forgot" got lots of very nice shiny bits for the old 750 4 and i gotta admit i have a soft spot for the old lump. so its gonna be a nice clean mota in a ratty frame. no pics yet m8 (i still cant get to it for all the crap in the wayhttp://www.turbosport.co.uk/images/smilies/laugh.gif . i will post as soon as......http://www.turbosport.co.uk/images/smilies/cool.gif
It does look so mean in black with the really shiney http://www.turbosport.co.uk/images/smilies/wink.gif pipes.
And Carl I have seen Rob blast this up a slip road, so yep he does use it and very well by the look of it.
Somthing like that Clinthttp://www.turbosport.co.uk/images/smilies/wink.gif
