Came across this video, or parts of a video, while admiring the awsome biking weather we're having. Video is old so most likely a lot of people know these guys (who are these guys?) or seen the video but a good watch if you like twins being put through their paces.

Have to say these guys riding abilities makes the video intresting to watch :innocent:

How come it looks like a public road, and yet it's "VTR vs 916 vs TLR". indicating a battle?:blink:
What's up with that?

Edit: Oh. Now I see. I watched video 3, and see that it's just your usual twats behaving like,....well.... [I]fuckwits.

Yes they're also fast bikes, but I'm refering to these three riders in particular.

That's what also got my attention.

Have a few of these - good watch. Absolutely nuts doing what they do on a public road - they are all lucky boys they didn't end up road paint. A few of them ended up being BSB riders and Shakey even ended up in WSB if I Remember rightly.

OI,thats lardy arsed TLR,not to be confused with the S before it.Methinks the reason the R used to run wild in the front end was the huge piece of plastic Suzuki stuck on the rear end.:shutup:The 10 pound weight difference felt like 50 and looked a hundred.Sad really cause motor wise they had a great thing going,horsepower wise ahead of the 916 but couldnt come up with a frame and suspenders.

Yeah - none of the crowd I knew could afford 916's, but several TL vs VTR comparos done - being a suzuki Nut....I really started to dislike the VTR. They handled well so well...thankfully I kept hearing about them running out of gas at 150km's :)
Ended up going the 600/4 route for funz.
