My 82 XZ550 has been off the road most of the time since I bought it 3 years ago. After a LOT of repairs and upgrades I got a WOF (safety certificate) last week, and took it (with Iain on his XZ550 also) on it's first voyage of about 60km.  Only two bolts fell off, which is pretty good considering.  Not finished yet...

Looking very nice. I'll need to put some clean up work into mine before you see it again, will be a bit of an embarrassment against this.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming HOOOOYA lets go again baby !!!!!!
