    Sexy Bike.
    Nail your colours to the mast that all may look upon them and know who you are.

    If you can make it on Kiwibiker you can make it anywhere.

    Think they will win any races? or will they have to settle for second place.
    Why would you ride that long and that gnarly stuff if you don't have to, Its what we do, we love it.

    You're missing the point. I have an RF900R. It'll do 130 in first. It doesn't mean I ride everywhere in first does it?

    3rd, 4th. 5th are the gears I mainly ride in on the open road, so I'd want to know how it does in these gears.
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    Doesn't have nearly enough R's in the model name.

    The greatest pleasure of my recent life has been speed on the road. . . . I lose detail at even moderate speed but gain comprehension. . . . I could write for hours on the lustfulness of moving swiftly.

    This is all very interesting - but is that GSXR1000RR likely to come here? And if so, what's the likely list price? It sure looks good, but not if it's going to be silly (RSV-R) money!

    By looks of it what is happening is

    Yoshimura Race Shop (YRS)

    Is opening up everything they make to general public, what they make for the top guys in AMA can be brought, or you can go to YRS, and if you have the $$$ walk out with all parts Mat Madlin has on his GSXR1000

    Obviously wants to become a Honda with the RR's. Nice looking Huzuki / Sonda.
