Post by: UK Pete on April 23, 2011, 11:18:23 AM

There is a article in this months (May11) Practical Sportsbikes magazine, it is a double page featuring four bikes, some of them if not all SOHC UK members, me being one of them, if your in smiths its worth a quick browse

Hello Pete, I had a quick look through that yesterday and noticed you and the F2 in there. Had no money with me so will have to get a copy later to read.

On an unrelated topic a question you may be able answer for me; what size and type front wheels do your GPZ550s have fitted and do they have those small spokes in the wheel centre to mount the discs or are they hub mounted carriers? hope you can help.

Hi K2, the magazine has a article on buying a cbx750 as well
My GPZ'S have 18 inch 3 spoke ally wheels, disks mount to the center hub

Thanks for the wheel info Pete.

Yep saw the CBX in there as well, as you know I'm into those as well. Have to get to a newsagent that stocks it and also got to look for an RC helicopter mag for my son as he's just getting interested in those.
