Nice bikes those mate. The latest ones are meant to have a larger fuel tank too so you should just about get around the loop on a tank depending on if you keep it it on both wheels.

Let us know if they go as well as they say they do.

Do you think you will have time for riding it???? Thats 2 days cleaning on the Sherprilia, 2 days cleaning the Kawachopper, 2 days cleaning the ktm (yet to be christened), half a day rebuffing the other two again, 2 hrs with tooth brush when you notice fine specks of tar on the ktm, 5 minutes polishing yer knob, 2 hours wiping man milk off the ktm tank leaving approximately fuck all to ride.....I think I should come up and help out (with riding, not any form of polishing) :mellow:

Right,I picked this beast up yesterday arvo with the kind help of Ralph,cheers bro!
Cruise up the dudes driveway and holy fark...it's as mint as a 2nd hand bike can be. Crank it up and holy snapping arseholes!!! Yes boys 'n girls...Akropovic's do scare neighbours! :yes:

Bloody hell....if you haven't ridden one of these things do so...ASAP! What a shit load of fun and you don't have to break the law to have it too which is a nice change for me.
Leave Auckland after Mac shows me how to get back onto the bloody motorway,I thought I'd test it's lane splitting abilities...PASS!!!!!! :yes:
I didn't realise how much easier it would be but bloody hell. Could see everything and those Akro's....dang! Never realised how many lanes Auck motorway had :innocent:
Open road? LOL........weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!! Corners? Wiiiiiiiiiiiicked!!!!!!! Karagahaki(sp) Gorge? hehehehehehehehehehehe!

Negatives? One...a 15l petrol tank but I'll forgive it as the fun factor well out weighs that negative.

Pic's will follow plus I intend to do a fair few kms this weekend.

Just saw a SuperDuke at this past weekends bike meet. They look sweet. The only problem was that it was parked next to a couple of MV Agusta Brutale's!! I just stood there for 10 minutes unable to decide which of the three I wanted to look at more.

Good choice of bike!!! Gotta love those street fighter looks. Enjoy it.

Every time I see something like a Brutale or a SuperDuke or an FZ-1 I almost decide it will be my next bike. Still trying to stay strong and get a GSXR but........damn its tempting............

Oh it's better than what I'd heard and experienced on the wee test ride I had earlier in the year.
Have now done about 1300kms since picking it up on thursday...all I can say is that it's the most fun I've had on two wheels and those that have ridden with me prior know how much of a HUGE statement that is.
