Title: Nice to see them together.
Post by: Nurse Julie on April 30, 2023, 06:41:53 PM: Had both UK model 750 K2's side by side briefly yesterday.
The 73 model red one was back for it's 500 mile 1st service and the 72 gold one was waiting to be collected by her new owner.

Also had a visit from a friend and his wife on his UK 750 K0 later in the day, which was lovely to see

No mirrors?
No Ken. Red one arrived in a van so had mirrors taken off for transport and Gold one was collected in a van, so taken off ready for loading.

Post by: Oddjob on May 01, 2023, 04:20:14 PM: Ahh, that would explain it, I doubt I'd be comfortable riding a bike with no mirrors, I like to keep an eye out behind me for Police and nutters mainly.

Lucky owners, must be very pleased. I always feel they are, the 750, the most pivotal in bike design. Many argue, but these did completely shift attitude and made literally everyone think differently. Not often do you get a product that truly does that.

Post by: Oddjob on May 02, 2023, 01:02:51 AM: I would argue that the 750 looks like the wife after she's turned fat and dumpy and the 500 is the wife you married, slim and sexy ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Yes Ted, standard on all 750/4's but they are a seperate parts that come with fitting kits.

Post by: Sesman on May 02, 2023, 12:59:00 PM: Both lovely looking bikes. I Wouldn’t turn either down as a gift, but probably prefer the gold one.

Post by: Johnny4428 on May 02, 2023, 01:18:41 PM: Iconic! Without a doubt. And great fun!

Post by: philward on May 02, 2023, 10:23:50 PM: Fantastic looking bikes Julie - prefer the Red. Must put my spare Red tank/side panels on my K2!

Post by: taysidedragon on May 03, 2023, 10:03:15 AM: Beautiful bikes. The red one looks really classy. 👍
Title: Re: Nice to see them together.
Post by: McCabe-Thiele (Ted) on May 03, 2023, 11:52:37 AM: Both colours look great - being a bloke I would go for the nice red one. :P :P :P
