    That would take a very hard hit.

    I understand it. Not everyone has great self control when they're on something that fun/potentially fun. Dying might be pushing it but knowing you're avoiding grief with Johnny law is enough.

    Slow bike fast is more of a challenge anyway

    Dont think a 2003 600 is really making big power unless your riding it in the top 1/3 of the rev range which means he would need riding hard to frighten himself anyway.

    It's an R1, so a litre, not a 6hundy.
    Its no current superbike level power, but its making plenty enough to scare the shit out of someone not accustomed to decent power

    His marketing campaign is working though. Look at all the KBers who have now looked at his listing

    And, who hasn't had that 'little bit of pee' experience on their bike a couple of times! Reminds me - I must do my annual leathers lining wash down.

    Plus the number plate belongs to a tractor.
    This bike is also on Motorbikes for sale nz (facebook) with plate 89WAO and also plate 89WAG
    Reason for sale on facebook is lost licence.

    I thought you could get a black and white plate on a new car or bike by registering it as a p plate? Or you just can't do it period.

    Fuck. 44 I was still winning shit loads of races.

    That said new litre bikes have got real fast. But they have another 40hp than they did then. And clearly that's been crashed.

    I got off a mates 1100 Turno thingy giggling like a maniac. I said that was mental. He said: You don't have to ride it like that. I think it was impossible not to. The R1M was even worse.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    What are the signs of it being crashed? I had a look at the pictures a couple of hours ago but I don't know what to look for.

    The number plate is for an 03 R1. Why do you say it belongs to a tractor?

    The 02-03 R1 is generally regarded as the slowest. Lucky he didn't buy an 07 or the new one!

    Fuck 44, I'm 73. I'm not riding an R1 though and definitely not winning any races. (Arthritis would discourage that sort of behaviour.)

    Still I'm slowing down in my old age, my memory is going but I don't think I have even exceeded 180kph in the car lately. Well, not since Christmas?

    Strange I ran it earlier and came back as a registered trailer. Might need go bed soon.
