that catalog brings back a lot of memories.the 87' sr600 in red was my first real road bike after i had ridden my schwinn world sport for the last 2 years and was educated enough from magazines to know these were real road bikes that real cyclists rode and i was ready to commit to the sport.purchasd from a dealer in Norman OK.i was amazed that they actually sold a bike for over 2K that had tires you had to glue on.
no one could believe i spent that much money for bicycle.i had to get a loan from the credit union for $1000 i think.
looking back the best thing on that bike was the lugged steel fork,at the time i probably thought it was the worst and caused that thing to be so harsh.i'm sure i ran 110lbs of air in the 23's and weighed 135lbs.
good times
i recall thinking the all white version was the most beautiful and really hated the black lightning version
