in reply to Neil E. Hodges • • •I had a GL650 when I did dispatch riding. A GL is a CX with a fairing, wide bars and a bigger tank. The fairing and bars got dumped after an accident anyway. Pretty much every dispatch rider in London at the time had either a Honda CX500/650 or Kawasaki Z550. The shaft drive was great, no more chain tensioning/oiling. But the front end wasn't up to the job and combined with the shaft jacking made it an interesting ride at times.
Mate had a turbo - think hippo on acid.
