This was taken in May 14. In Vietnam. On the Ho Chi Minh Highway. A mate and I thought it would be a great idea to travel from Saigon to Hanoi on a pair of beat-up old 100cc Honda's. No GPS and only a basic map of the country. Best trip of my life!

cant get the photo to load though.

Craig, you often need to be patient when uploading pics here mate - can take 5 mins or more or so, check your IE / Firefox etc. taskbar, if it says 'waiting for adventurebikeforums...' or similar, then the snail is on the wheel, just leave it running, make a cuppa or something and eventually it'll upload ;)

the first road bike with upside down forks copying Schwantz's GP bike (then the RGV250 the year after) it was a stunner

pity I had to sell it the year after to fund my first house but it was a choice between the GSXR and the ZXR and I chose the one I loved more ......... but........ 13 years later I bought a ZX7R which I still have and that is a cracking bike too
