Fred replied;

On the 600, have gone 39.3 On my superbike, 38.5. That was a 7 lap demonstration ride I did at the big Porshe race here back in 1996 That sure shut those fuckers up.
Regards Freddy.

I guess the guy wouldn't do that because he really has been 'there and done that' already and must rate up there as one of the achieving motorcycling competitors residing in NZ. We are lucky that a guy like Freddie has chosen NZ to ?retire.

Have you read this Soup <a href=http://www.superbikeplanet.com/merkel95.htm>Interview With Flyin' Fred?</Z>

Cheers for that denill, never knew who the guy was untill i heard about him running these track days. Seems we are really lucky he puts in the time to share his vast knowledge of bikes with us. Just hope I get the chance to glean some knowledge off him someday.
