I added the Corbin saddle and what they call their "Beetle Bags." Along with a bunch of other farkles. In fact, I can trace my affliction (farkleitis) to that very first motorcycle.

Really looks good on that Kawasaki. My wife had a Vulcan 900 LT for a couple years. Wonderful bike that did good touring duty.

I have to throw in one of my all time favorite bikes that I owned (GPz 750 Turbo) but was stolen and for obvious reasons. Maybe this was God's way of telling me I was gonna kill myself on this beast! Sorry I did not think to take any pictures back then, was to messed up!

I loved that 750 turbo. I first got a ride on one at the local racetrack in '83 and I was hooked. The deal killer for me was that insurance cost would have equaled the bike payment. I couldn't afford both
It still ranks as one of the more exciting bikes I've ever ridden.

One of the magazines recently did a piece looking back on the turbo bikes. They all seemed so high tech and high performance at the time, but in hindsight were not all that good. |
