    Since moving to Oz I sold the bikes and someone is looking after my parts in Auckland, but I haven't been able to find an xj in Brisbane so I bought a 99 Suzuki GSXR600 for $1200

    Nice bike. I wouldn't be ashamed to ride that at all. As long as your riding is the key:)

    Headlight is coming off... I like the look but it's cheap and has 2 blown bulbs, 2 broken (not easily repaired) wires and rusty screws... I've been looking for a replacement tonight

    It's had all the fairing removed... I still have it too. Might end up back on, I'll see.

    $1200 that's a steal! I'd take a GSXR600 in a heartbeat as a second bike if I could find one around here for that! Congrats!

    2 months between posts, Al, you must be busy, or are you just riding that alien machine ?
