I am not putting my Ducati up again as certain people take the p*ss!

So here is a blast from the past (yes I still have it, in fact my daughter uses it to get to college every day, and it woops the pants of scooters!)

Not in bad shape given it is 30 years old in September!

Yep!!..Tis where i started (FS1E) ..then progessed to a GS550 and a GS850 (nice bikes)

Oh for sure. I remember those days with pleasure of the open road and dominence of the tarmac (2 stroke 850..gosh that could shift) Just waiting for the right time/place to return to the biker fold

Funnily enough, due to certain work pressure/problems brewing-up for awhile now, it looks like i may be coming into a little nest egg soon (£££'s) and was thinking (once i'v invested in some more property) of getting another bike.

Do the 2 stroke GS850's still exist? (been 22 years or so since i last had/saw one)

[Richiemouse]

Is that the one they used to call "the kettle"?

Dunno mate but i wouldn't be surprised (it was sure 'hot' enough to be termed so) My best friend at the time was Knobby, who used to ride them at Silverstone and was the defining influence in me getting one (took me on the back of his race bred one a few times and even as a fearless teenager, i absolutely wet! myself...gosh he could ride that man)

Would love! to know if they're still available/around though

Anorak on:

The GS850 was a shaft drive 4 stroke & the GT750 was the water-cooled 2 stroke nicknamed 'the kettle'

Both Suzukis & I think that the GT750 would be a little older than the GS850.

Anorak off: And that's enough of me showing my age



Maxoverfred - very nice

[Richy]

Not wishing to make icey feel old, but both bikes were way before my time ..I'll have to ask my Dad Nice Duke Maxoverfred I like the Jamie whitham neck out approch

I have just bought an SV650 as my first proper bike. All I have got to do now is pass my test GULP

People usually do it the other way round

[Whiteboy]

I know but it was such a good price.

[Richiemouse]

If you fail your test I'll take it off your hands for a fiver
