Hi Mike. I had a 1986 GT model I used to use on the longer runs as a dispatcher and z400f in the city. The GT felt so smooth back then compared to the 400. Great memories. Thanks for watching.
@@andrewonmyway8184 No problem great channel 🙂 I was on here watching your review of the Yamaha Fazer 600 I have owned several over the years and fancy another one for commuting to work....great bikes 😄
That’s great David. Thanks for you comments. I used to dispatch on a 1985 model G2 back in the day when London was full of GTs chasing cash. 2nd one you say? What models have you had?
@@andrewonmyway8184 I had a 1990 model which I bought in 2001 (blue) , I think using Ethanol 10 ruined that bike,in November bought a 1995 model (red). I was advised strongly not to use E10 and to use E5 at a M.O.T testing station.
@@davidknight5863 In Sweden we've had only E10 since 2021. E5 is long gone. Can't really say if I noticed any difference to be honest with you. I usually drain my carbs in the winter so nothing lingers. E15. E20 are probably around the corner then I will have to turn the bike into an indoor ornament. Ride safe,,,👍
Thanks Guy for your comments. Got a new video coming this week with a naked GT550. Hopefully you will have the time to check it out to rekindle old memories.
Had 3 GT550's, '83-'92, Superb bikes but it's Olympian Big Brother, GT750 ?, Was so much Better, I enjoyed my '84, very very healthy GT750 in '85 ?, more than my nearly new Kawa.750 turbo '84 Couriered on both thrashed them daily countless times, it was great.?, This will get a laugh at the next Banditaholics meeting ?, Myself having a PhD Masters Degree in Bandit Torque Enjoyment only, nothing technical. Bigging up Kawasakis, Clear as day OH..... BANDITS BANDITS, BANDITS ARE THE BEST BIKES EVER.!!!, and I ain't even lying. Yours truly Scott Loch. Na, Professor Bandit B.T.E.Bandit Torque Enjoyment only out.
@@andrewonmyway8184 No problem, I Am an Aching Crazy Mad Banditateer, Fekkin Banditless Banditaholic !!, Had 3 GT550's, '85 had an ex demonstrator GPZ 550 uni-track with d.f.i. fuel inj., it too was nice.will Always Adore Kawasakis.
