Cutting out - I thought it was just mine!

[Phill_York]

It's admirable that you can appreciate all of those cutting edge features whilst looking at the bike through the rear window of the recovery wagon

I do like Mr Wolf's reply. Very amusing but he does emphasise how much extra there is to go wrong on the K16.

Not to mention the mortgage needed to buy one

And isn't Mr Wolf's bike on its second engine?

Any how .....sorry to interrupt the flow.....but.......
After leaving Birmingham yesterday, sat in a queue on the A38, did it again, just the once, no warnings / misfires, just stalled on warm tick-over, clutch in!
So apart from tickover and plugs which may help, no-one's actually found out why?

[Lonewolf]

Snow0, the reason why it keeps cutting out is because it's a Kawasaki. 

PRD no I am not on my second engine!

Boomer used K16's are probably cheaper than the equivalent year GTR.

I'm just on a wee ride out but all should be well as I have a support vehicle travelling with me just in case, my mates following me in his RAC van.

Sorry Mr Wolf that is what I was told. So BMW's depreciate more than Kawasakis I did not know that.

   This just gets better and better!

But it also means that an awful lot of machine can be bought for the money!
I really don't want to change, but need to ride one again and evaluate, biggest thing I think I'd miss would be the "Cheshire cat" grin the GTR provides!  :)

All this talk about BMW and Kawasaki motorcycles makes me think about what started it all and just how much better Kawasaki were at making bikes even back in the 70s than BMW were      

Me and my 1975 H2c Kawasaki

Nice bike 

[virginiajim]

My God, OC...  If that was taken back in the 70's, how old are you now!

Lovely bike. Come to the meeting on that.
