Blue reflective rim tape would look great on that GS.

That looks like a bicycle tire on the front of that Kawa.

I had a 1977 Kawi with the side mount carb. Good learning bikes. I also had a 1977 Yamaha IT250, it was old but man did it haul  :o. These bikes are all much older than me but they are what i learnt on. The oldies are excellent learning tools, for riding and working on.

holy shaZam! guys check out that skateboard!!  OMG pimp!

I love the saki...I haven't seen one of them in person in a very long time.  One of the first bikes I ever rode.

that Kawi is cool, back in those days a 500 was a big, badass bike.  It's amazing how far the tech has come.

Yeah I have a 74 RD250 (2 stroke).  Great little bike 100lbs lighter than the GS.  Horrible Brakes, but runs great, and I get waves from both Sportbike and Cruiser riders.
