    Who do I give beers to, to get a swing on one of these machines? I've only ridden and swung on a speedway chair so far.

    I promise I won't let go.

    You'd get a hoon at a test day if you are impatient. Otherwise, we advertise the 'Have a go day' fairly well each year in March at Taupo.

    Rule number 1. You let go, your box.

    Sounds good. I was going to go last march but had to be clerk of the course at speedway that weekend.

    Tray of beer for coming off. The equivalent of a crate of big bottles.

    More like speedway then. I had a go riding and I was a bit harsh on the throttle (efi was race tuned and hates not being full noise) the swinger headbutted my leg a few times for a couple of laps. Weird bikes on dirt. Throttle on you go straight/left throttle off it goes sideways. Handlebars just suggest what way to go haha

    May the fleas of a thousand camels infest your armpits... but yeah you're right, it's leakin oil like a sidecar and waiting for pop/bang everytime it goes over 13k revs... GSXR's always go best before they go bang(from previous and friends experiences)
