BMW R1200RT/R1250RT Forum

As well as my glorious new(ish) RT, I do have a couple of other bikes.


This us 'TANGO', my 2000 year CB500. She's done 17,000 miles now, and is ultra reliable. I purchased her just to take the Isle Of Man for the moto GP (watching, not racing!). It was my intention to sell her shortly after, but that was 3 years ago!



What other bikes do you own?


And this is 'PAM', my 1957 Ambassador Supreme. The Ambassador company was based in Ascott, Surrey. Quite a rare bike, you very rarely see them - even at classic shows. Originally, she was owned by a member of the Air Force, and then sat in a damp shed for 41 years. She was rescued and restored by a neighbour of mine, and I managed to purchase her before she went up for sale.  Not a quick bike, but a pleasure to look at.

As this was my CBF600 that I sold to a neighbour, to make room in the garage for me RT. It's a very reliable bike, on which I've done 10,000 miles, but it lacks character.

I've also got a 1981 Yamaha XJ650.

Hi Dayglo.

Loving the CBX

This is my S2 Yamaha Fazer

My Neighbor had a brand new CBX back in the early eighties. Got to ride second seat a few times. It was a rocket.

As the CBX, which I have known for thirty five years is so popular, here's a few more.

I'm afraid something went wrong with attaching your images so nothing to see 

There, that's better!

It was at the time, but don't let the 'Supersport' decal on the tank fool ya.

Thankyou, I often sit in the garden with a beer and just look. Kinetic art I think.
