I will be 32 this August. 
and today I got my most wanted teenage stuff - a RX 100. Actually the want was eclipsed by my Shogun in 1996. But yet I always wanted a RX. On the roads I envied everyone whom I found riding a well maintained RX. Not a 135, not a 135 5s but a classic RX 100. The scope, the situation, a good bike, perfect papers - everytime I tried to get a RX one of these parameters failed, until today!
I came home at 3PM (rain drenched) riding her for 50 kms from the seller's place. Oh well, ~56000 kms on the odo (its working perfect) and running on stock bore, this 1991 RX seriously kicks ass. It's an amazing machine.
Few quick shots of the RX
The Boss (below) perhaps does not like the presence of the The Jack. She refused to start in a single kick this evening. I expect them to be good friends.
Plans with the RX.
Will restore her to stock condition, cosmetically and internally. For the next few months I intend to collect the spares and once the rainy season is over will start working on her.

congrats.
I see the rear shocks rusting. Do repalce it. And one humble request, restore it to stock condition ONLY. I feel sad to see some of the 'cool' or 'hot' RXs on the road.
