kickass idea man...


oh wait..

* the Hirer shall be required to pay the first $2000.00 of any cost of repair.



b) The indemnities referred to above shall not apply where the damage, injury or loss arises when:

* The rider of the motorcycle is under the influence of alcohol or any drug that may affect his or her ability to drive the vehicle;

* The motorcycle is operated in any race, speed test, rally, or contest;

So we can valve bounce them down the back straight of Pukekohe, as long as we return them with no obvious damage?

My friend needs to sit his full on the weekend, should I tell him to ask for you?

The 2 problems I see with this idea are:

1) The spectators (let alne the riders) would fall alseep waiting for the GNs to make their ponderous way down the back straight

2) Then they'd get a crick in their necks with the ever so slow right to left movement while following their (ponderous) progress down the front straight!!

The good news is that I could finally use up that last roll of very slow film I have left in my normal camera :whistle:

Pride mate - gotta be sheer pride.

Sarge - bloody awesome idea... I reckon you could start a racing class with those things - so popular and (let's face it) not so quick they're going to kill everyone giving it a go.

Bling for that one matey!

uh huh...

It reminds me of the (one and only) time I went for a blat out at Puke... I got that feeling of standing still/going backwards as some dude on an R1 went past with his arse on fire...

I thought I was ding ok till that point.

I can imagine the same will happen if you got out there Frosty LOL!

I simply want to condense 3 years of wear and tear into one day of riding on a Coleman's GN. Is that too much to ask?

If you are really serious about a good GN250 race (which is very possible), it has to be at the Mt Welly go kart track and not at a race track like Pukei!!!

It might be a bit much for a slow coach like me to go racing. I dont think I will come to auckland and try to keep pace with MR on ANY track :bleh: :nya:

I sense a cunning plan by the Suzuki salesman.....

Lots of GN250s, going flat out around Pukekohe, spewing out engine and transmission bits on the back straight, running off the track as puny brakes fade and skinny tyres lose traction.....= selling more GN250s!! Am I the only one who senses the deviousness of his evil plan? :devil2:

Would an NZ-250 qualify, Sarge?
It is afterall a 4-stroke 250 Suzuki road-bike..... :niceone:

Can I come if I can get hold on an FXR150? :whistle:

So tempting. Must resist urge, no money to replace anything at the moment. Allready have to see Dan tommorow to get that taillight screw off him at Colemans. ARGH.
I'd be really interested if it wasn't my GN250 that I was potentionally writing off.

Oh well, can I come as a spectator?

Ill give it a go if someone gives me a GN250... I reckon i can do the entire track at full throttle in 5th (it only has five gears aye?) with only a slight dab of the brakes at the 20 metre mark on the back straight...
