Who Here Rides Bikes........?

[jenkies]

had a 2006 250 gpx kawasaki.... when i realised i couldnt keep it under 80 and hills were scary when you mis judged a corner and there isnt much room for error when your a foot away from a rail or a rock wall i sold it. bought my r32 gtr.... its faster and safer than ALMOST ALL bikes after the coin ove speant on it. plus it brings alot more joy to my heart in owning it!

be safe! that is to all bike owners and riders! may you all have more self control than me

peace

[stuartr32]

you have my dream bike...

dont you dare post up various pics and tell me what you think about it as a daily rider

Worst daily ever. with the mods that are on it it's hard to do the speed limit. haha good for a 600 anyway

Old pics when i had chicken strips

121hp Full akro system, double bubble screen, braided lines, custom rear sets, HID, PC3 etc...

its damn good for a 600... there isnt much else in its cc range that will stick with it

and you have it in kawa green too, looks real good.

hopefully by the time i pick one up in june/july, the price will drop under 10k for an '05... hopefully

I unfortunately don't think i'll be making the ride day on the 19th..

Had my first bike accident on monday night. Was riding home from my gf's parents place about 9:30, she was in front in her car. Coming down towards the bottom of cattai ridge rd in glenorie if anybody knows it, Pitch fkn black at night time, windey, very narrow and no street lights... well there was 2 HUGE black cows walking on the side of the road! She broke pretty hard but by the time i came up to them they were walking towards the middle of the road & saw them last second. Hit front brake tried to hook it right, front wheel lost traction and lowsided. My knee, helmet, and forearm bit the tarmac..Bike went sliding down the road about 20m or so. My gf in front turned around and was pretty hysterical, worse than me haha.

There's a few properties near where this happened so just trying to find out who owns these fkn cows and tell them what happened!

Ah well, bike will be fixed and i'll be right as rain soon. Every bike rider knows this will happen one day, im just glad it wasnt any worse. My jacket, gloves and helmet are scratched up and ripped my right knee outta my jeans..theres a 2m long mark on the road from my jeans, little bits of denim stuck in the tar haha.

Bike is in at Hawkesbury Honda getting quoted up for the repairs..

Jono

Yea Jono....Animals on the roads make me angry....I hit one a couple of years ago

No not a typo.

It's a 1201 big bore GSXR motor in a 1981 Katana frame with GSXR usd forks, swinger, dash etc

Ahh, now it's making sense. I've got a big bore GSXR too. A Bandit 1200S. It's got the old oil/air cooled GSXR engine in it.

its faster and safer than ALMOST ALL bikes after the coin ove speant on it.

I said that once - the faster part, not the safer part - and someone told me to be quiet before I embarrassed myself further. They were right. I have a 1200cc bike that wheelies on demand, 10 years old but off the factory floor did 10.5 second quarter miles and 0-100 in 3.1 seconds. Can your GTR do that? What if I put a pipe and dyno jet kit on adding another 20% more power? I was out on a group ride the other day on this bike and compared to some of the bikes there I felt positively slow. Full noise forwards and R1's, GSXR 1000's cruise past me like I'm on my way to church.

That said, you are smart in that you know you can't save yourself ON the bike so you take yourself OFF it. Well done.

[Abo Bob]

Nice. Is that a K7 GSXR?

[ctjet]

K6 maybe

[Marko R1]

its a k6 which is mechanically identical to the k5 (except for minor diff. in paint scheme, pin striping on side fairing)

[ctjet]

Not to mention a major structural improvement on the linkage between the front suspension and frame of the bike
