Hi John. As you took the time to comment, I'll take the time to reply. Yes, I did a bit of research trying to find common issues with the bike (some I was aware of, some I was not). Problem is, the climate the bike is ridden also contributes to some of the issues that I mentioned. Here in Australia, most of the issues I mentioned regarding fueling issues were not a problem for Australians who owned an RSV. But ridden in an Australian summer, there were examples of electrical issues. These can be avoided by regularly checking the connections, but if you were to get the bike serviced at most workshops, I doubt they would be checking the connections (as it probably isn't in the service schedule). You also pointed out that I was "reading from notes". Well yes I was. When doing these used bike reviews, I tend to write down all the points that I need present. Normally, I would use a teleprompter (like alot of KZbinr do), but I thought it would be easier to read it off some printed notes (yes, a bit lazy on my part). You say "you could talk about these bikes all day but don't need to read from a page lol" Well, you have a channel, why don't you step up and do it? I look forward to see what you have to say. Maybe you could review other bikes as well (Do you think you would be able to do a review on those bikes without notes?, once again, you have the channel). So you bought your first Mille 18 years ago and you have had 7 of them since. Not the flex you think it is.As you were talking about how none of them let you down. How long did you own each of them? Do you still have them? and if not, why did you move them on? You say they are easy to service? Compared to what? I could name alot of bikes that are easier to service than an RSV of the same era. What jobs do you think need "the experts touch" ? Now I agree a poorly maintained one is best avoided. But even a well maintained one can develop problems too. Sadly in Australia, there were very few R models imported. I was informed only about 25 were bought to Australia the first year they were released. So they are very scarce here. I do look with a bit of envy seeing how much easier they are to find over in the UK. Now I agree with you, They are an underdog and a very sexy bike. So much so, I bought one and plan on using it for track days. I may even register it when it gets past the 30 year mark and put it on historic rego (excellent scheme here in my home state). I look forward to seeing your video talking about the your experience with RSV's.

Thank you.

Glad you like them. Thanks for watching.

They were on sale. Michelin has a promo on sets of tyres as well.

@@RoadsOfOz makes sense

Thanks for that. The grip/tyre life some of these tyre manufacturers are getting is amazing. Good for us consumers. Would love to see the aerial footage. I bet it did not look graceful.

@@RoadsOfOz i thought to myself, hello, Matty’s taking the scenic route around that tree

Thanks to the internet parts are a bit easier to find. It is a common problem for alot of 80/90's sports bikes is they did not have a long production run (average of less than 4 years) and factory support is almost gone. Good news is, engine parts are still available. As for the front forks. There are bypass kits available to replace the anti dive units. Find a GPz owners forum/ club in your area. They are very helpful. Let me know if you end up buying it.

Some manufacturers when they change the design, you may find the older design is named something else in their range. Always chat with the service manager where you get the tyres fitted, they should be upto date on such things.

You will not be disappointed. Rated them on the Griso. Fantastic on track days too.

What can I say. I like to explore.

Heavy bike with more power than my old Griso. I would expect less milage from the tyres. But it also depends on how you ride.

@@RoadsOfOz haha I ride like an old man….. which is what I am

Mine are still going strong. I returned the chainsaw for warranty work and has been fine ever since.

You are welcome.

The relief I had when it fired up.

Big Success.

This one is fuel injected.

You are welcome. The 03 is the pick of the bunch.

@@RoadsOfOz It's an amazing machine no doubt! I love it got a little ride in today and the torque is unbelievable

It was all a learning experience.

It was well past its use by date.

The compressor forces air into the chamber helping atomise the fuel. In theory , it will run more efficiently.

The rabbit hole is deep, but i will get there.

At the time, I was still on the Battlax Adventure (stay tuned for a revie coming soon). I have recently fitted the Michelin Anakee.

Have not ridden a V7 yet.

I am a bit of a Quad Lock fan. They mounts have never let me down.

Yep. I can see why.

Let me know how they hold up.

Thank you. There were plenty of Videos of me on my Griso (my original channel was called GrisoGuy). I am sure at some point I will regret selling my Griso. But cannot see me getting another one.

Helps atomise the fuel. Bike uses less fuel in the process.

@@KrakensGarageandAdventures joys of buying cheap bikes that do not run.

@@fifocrew3040 it is fuel injected.

Thank you. I am glad you like them.

Thank you. I just had to use the Anzac bridge footage somewhere on this video.

I am a fan of being able to wear regular shoes on this bike.

@@RoadsOfOz This is the most comfortable.

@@hachewie when you come to Sydney. Take it for a spin.

@@RoadsOfOz awesome man.

There is a big fun factor with this scoot. Good times indeed.

It has the punch needed on outer urban roads. I am enjoying riding this scoot.

Yes, this does it very well. It even gets ahead of most traffic with ease.

Thank you. I have been enjoying making this style of video. Hopefully more to come.
