Re: Classic Motorcycles from Japan
Those old Titans were fast. I remember laughing at a friend who had picked one up. I was riding a T120V Bonneville at the time. I stopped laughing the first time we rode out. I hate the smell of two stroke smoke...

Re: Classic Motorcycles from Japan
Lot of people don’t realize the Suzuki two strokes rode like four strokes. They actually have low end and don’t try to tip over backwards at 5 grand and die at 7.
