Hm. I seem to remember the effect of cold on trolls. Tis getting colder. And the input from Mr Crazy Steve and Mr WINJA seems to becoming more cerebral. Hmm.

[No offence guys, tiss a PT, like]

And you will want that one as well! It's like a conspiracy to rob us with new toys. Sometimes I believe the rumours that there are large buildings, code named 'factories', somewhere that spit bikes off a production line to feed us like sheep. Baa unbelievable.

Hi MD, I picked up my K5 a couple of weeks ago and hoping to get a few ks on it this weekend. I used to have the k3 and liked it alot but the k5 is a completely different bike. It feels way smaller,corners better,allot more power and as you say finished better.I am quite tall but find riding position good,i seem to be able to sit more upright and get down lower. The seat is longer and a little lower. As for the sound of the exhaust,it pops at low revs but howels when you wind it on. The more i ride it the more i love the thing. As for that coment we will smoke the cunts on,Bring em on!!!!

i really like that wierd standard exhaust can - if anyone takes it off - i'd be keen to take it off their hands for my street tracker project.

You don't live to far from the Naki I'll put my K3 up to the test . No one has beaten it yet . Would be very kool to have it done by a K5 GSXR.

I'll be waiting .

Before i bought my runout k4 earlier this year i test rode the following bikes

zx10-fucken animal, hard rear suspension lots of gear noise, rip yer arm off and shove it up yer jacksie...the most fun, and a sure licence loser
zx6-no torque
cbr1000-nice bike [yeah but yer grandma's nice and yer wouldn't ride her]
cbr600-no torque
vfr800-if you wanted to get to dunedin in a coma
gsxr100k4-the winner, commutes 60k a day, comfortable, lotsa torque, cruise it or rape it.
sat on a k5 and i could get both feet flat on the ground, noticed the fairings a lot smaller.

He already knows what they really mean.
The problem is simply that Sensei's reputation precedes him.
Maybe he should arrange a test ride in Auckland, or Wellington, or anywhere but here ...
