I think Suzuki NZ may've had one?

I seem to recall that there was one for sale in Taumaranui.

Noice. Think I still prefer the Red/Black version though.

GSXR1000 BPF front end staple on say $2k, Ohlins TTX36 say $1800, custom subframe and single seat, bit of bling and bada boom bada bing, done.

Yep. Cheap as chips. Big carbs, GSXR1100 cams and CDI unit...150hp plus. Choice!

I dunno, I'm kinda ol' school or no school with this sorta stuff. It's like comparing a new mustang with a 60/70's mustang, the new 'un shits all over the old 'un in every measurable way but somehow the new 'un is still a pale imitation. With an ol' '70 clunker in the shed so no prizes for guessing what my preference is towards. It shits me to tears at times but the 40 year old unsanitised driving experience is the real deal, not a copy...for better or worse, lol.

Given an unlimited sized shed and spare cash I'd rather buy something old and drag it forward a bit without destroying the essence of it, than try and give something new hints of times gone by.

But it's about what the individual wants and needs from the car/bike.....and it's their money so whatever smokes your tyres, eh?
