Every time I ride the S3, I keep thinking how much it's like the first bike I bought, an '81 GPz550, in red.




Similar size, weight, seating position. I even pulled my first wheelie (by accident) on the little Gypsy. Of course, Speedy has twice the displacement, twice the horsepower, and better handling, but I'll tell ya, that little red bike was no slouch in its day, and a decent example would probably still keep ya grinnin'.

Yeah, I love the standard/naked thing. I guess 'cause you never forget your first.
