Size your pics to 850 wide, maintain the aspect ratio & let the length adjust itself. That size usually fits real well.

Cool bike!

Very cool and good price. I also love your interceptor. I remember seeing one for the fist time. it was so GP looking at the time.

Thanks, I actually have 6 Interceptors ( 83,84 85 X3, 86 vfr) as well as 3 305s and an S3, RZ,DS7, R5 and spare parts for all. The SRX has been on my " got to have " list for a long time. Don't see them too often so I jumped on it..........................D

Heck yes. For that price I would have jumped on it too.
Placed it right next to my SDR200 in the living room.
An SRX600 would be on that "would love to have someday" list.
Cheers, JJ

Yaman, I noticed the different oil cooler line configurations, whats up?...................D

Well the SRX is up and running perfectly! I got the starting drill down and it's usually a one or two kick affair. The bike is very light and agile, definite back road burner. Now back to the RZ project..................................................D

yup, learning the method definitely helps
i love the handling but, the power is lacking, sure would have been a winner with a 2stroke twin in it

Yaman, at 62 years old the power of the SRX is just about right!

That's a great find. I had two regular riding buddies in college: one with a 500 Interceptor and the other with an SRX. Both sweet bikes, but neither were as quick as my RZ  8)

I post waayyy too much

dgorms

Wade, I have both, in the right twisties it's a toss up between the SRX and the RZ. The torque of the SRX really thrusts you out of corners! BTW I live in northwet Washington, Tacoma

I'm just down the superslab from you in Chehalis; maybe you saw me at the races last night in Portland? I was sitting in front of the two drunk guys ;D! If not, see my post in Events. Angry Bees ride?
