    At club level, the 750 will lap at pretty much the same pace as a thou. Too old for the nationals now, but would have a very good shot at the streets.

    Exactly so will make a more than acceptable club bike. This is a really fun bike to race on and for peeps with national titles in mind sure look else where but for joe average who wants to get out at club level and have a go it is perfect. I think the price is pretty reasonable considering the whole package you get.
    Bike isnt super hard on tyres like the thous can be either. Buggar ive almost convinced myself to keep it...

    Not really, just look at the Winter Series where most of the F1 field is made up of 600's. Pure hp is nice to talk about down the pub, and sounds good in theory, but in practice on the track it creates as many problems as it solves. That $1 worth of concentration that you have to spend on each corner now has to be rationed even more thinly as you've a lot more to think about.

    Speaking to BJ Cawthorn and Craig Frethey (both at the pointy end of a club field) when they jumped off their 600's onto high spec thou's and both of them were suprised at how long it took them to go appreciably faster on the thou'.

    I've seen/followed TLR luva on track and the bugger just looked to be doin' it easy while I felt like I was sword fighting in an elevator on a 'thou doing similar lap times. Nice bike off track too, woulda cost a motza to get to this spec.

    NEW DEAL $9000 or very close offer. ON BEHALF OF TLRLUVA

    I have put this bike back to almost stock condition. So sale price $9000. Bike is stock apart from front suspension that Robert Taylor has had a fiddle with and race fairings and braided brake lines on the front. Comes with nothing extra.. just bike. The exhaust system is the original gsxr item and not the aftermarket one that is in the pic. Pit stands not for sale sorry they are for my new toy. thanks 027 389 7110
