Yeah, Mike is a business man!

But on the other hand, $15 per person covers transport of the bikes, insurance, building lease, and a team of getting things together. I doubt he will have any spare change left at the end of it.

$60? You would spend that on jack daniels and hookers over a weekend. This is better value.

So I should listen to someone who says the SR400 is the King of bikes?

So which is it? fucking cheap hookers or even cheaper JD's?

Two of us were charged $60 upon entry to Paradise Valley (Rotorua) which I thought was extreme and then asked if we wanted to pay an extra $15 for food to feed their fucking animals!

$15 to view a few motorbikes seems okay but for an extra $5 you can see this http://classicsmuseum.co.nz/#home
Guess it comes down to what floats your boat and how much you are willing to pay for that flotation experience.

Yes you should - not so much for the SR400 thing but more because I am very clever and handsome.

Yesterday I was invited to take some shots at the gallery. The room was PACKED with classic Japanese bikes. It was my first time seeing an RC30 and 45 in the flesh too.

Definitely worth a visit or two!

Yeah was super stoked! Mike seems like a really nice character, hoping to have a yarn with him.

He is a great guy to talk to. Speaking over the phone makes you feel like you are talking to a TV commercial tho.

There is literally not one bike in any of those photos that I would not own. I wonder if he'd notice if I legged it with the RC30 ?
