I got the bike on August 1st 1990 (actually delivered in a van to my house the day before, so I was ready for the off first thing in the morning). I recon there can't be too many people out there that have owned the same Exup that long. It's just had its 18th birthday (my kid insisted on buying it a cake & candles!) and it's still a fantastic bike to ride. Here's a pic of when I took it to Brands Hatch.

cos it's a great bike
Kept it really cos I like it so much. Many other bikes have come and gone from my collection over the last 18 years, but this one I'll keep (with one or two others as well).stinkwheel wrote:Top work Chaps, i really dont know how people stay loyal to one bike for so long, all credit to you both.
I get bored too easily and fancy a change.
