@MW-ow8ew Cheers mate, the SRAD does have a marmite rear end, much like the Hayabusa & TLR.. some love, some hate.. but I think it's great. It's a brilliant bike to ride as well! Thanks for commenting, really appreciate 🙏
Cheers mate, the Fireblade is still a brilliant bike to ride, & a bit quicker than the ZXR 😉 They all ride great though, even today.. Appreciate the comment my friend 👍
Can’t go past the quintessentially understated late 80s aesthetics of the ZXR and its raw muscular form (Biased of course!) but I’d love to take your GSXR for a rip!😁👊
@kawakarma I know you know 👌😄 I love mine.. It'll always be my favourite bike (unless I finally get my hands on an RC30 😄)...The GSXR is a brilliant bike, for sure quicker, & handles better than the ZXR.. They're relatively cheap to buy too so..get one bought 😉👍
I bought a new ZX10 and my friend bought a ZXR 750 back in 1990, they were the same price £8500 IR. He said he was going for handling, not power. We were riding at 60 mph along a straight country road, he got a huge tank slapper.
I had a similar experience in 1991 when I bought my first ZXR, and remember very well having a bar to bar end tank slap! The OG ZX10 was a beast of a bike too.. I had a GPZ1000RX 10 years ago, that predated the ZX10.. heavy bike, but quick in a straight line 😄👍
@@waynester71 The RX was a lemon, though my buddy loves them and has 6 of them now. I fitted a ZZR1100 block and head on my ZX10 and bored it to 1109cc, stage 7 Dynojet kit, and lots more. 138 at the wheel up from 118. The ZX headlight was the best ever with 100W or 140W mains. The ZX cracks the rear engine mounts. I had a GPZ900 with an Eagle 4-1 and a Ledar carb kit. Nothing could better my top speed, 750 turbo's, GSX-R 1100 slabbies etc. I hit 165mph on the clock. I have a 2020 S1000RR M Package now at 63 yo.
Nice bikes. I have a 98 FireBlade and it's a good bike, handles well but the engine isn't the best. You need a 98 R1 to put things in perspective, it's on a different level.
Cheers mate, true.. the R1's engine steps all over the Blades.. I bought an '01 in 2002, px'd my 916 for it.. Nice bike, but wish I'd kept the 916 tbh, especially given prices now for them 💁♂️
@@alfiebrindle4537 Good shout, it’s almost as quick as the Blade, and handles superbly… A great bike to ride for sure 👍🏼 Cheers Alfie for the comment 😎👊🏼
There all a great buy. Hard to be disappointed with any of these 90s bikes. Buy one of each!
@@tonypalermo5796 Lol, exactly 😄👌🏼 Cheers Tony 😎👍🏼
I do love the look of the GSXR. The high rear seat cover as well.

Love to ride all 3 of em mate. That garage of yours is one wicked Toy box 😎
Cheers buddy, they keep me in my happy place.. 😁👍
I do own a 98 gsxr750 haven’t got it going as yet but that zxr H2 looks amazing
Cheers mate, the ZXR is my favourite..but the SRAD is a brilliant bike to ride.. definitely need to get yours up & running 😎👌
Very nice. I'd take the Fire blade out. The ZXR used to scare the living daylights out of me.

Gsxr all day
Good choice, the handling is still awesome..& it screams up top! 😎🔥
@@waynester71 yep it brings back some great memories of when I had mine
All three are top bikes. I prefer carbs and the CBR is tops for me here. Thanks again for sharing!
Thank you brother for commenting 😎 I can’t disagree, the Blade is still a serious tool on the roads.. Love riding it! 😁🔥
Is there a way you could video a ride of your bikes for us who haven't ridden them? I vote for the Fireblade POV first. Cheers
@@b_the_lone_wolf Funny enough, I'm looking into getting a decent GoPro to do some riding videos 😊👍
@@waynester71 👌👍
How about that lineup. Amazing
Thank you bro.. I'd like to add a pinky YZF750 next, if I can find a nice one 😊
@@waynester71I have one coming my way soon. Always wanted one.
Nice bikes.
