    A good $4-5k too much me thinks.
    Naaaa... Its about right, only cos it is tidy, most imports have been played with, and I'd put them about 9-10

    Walking along Railside Ave yesterday and something similar went past. It was the best sounding bike I've ever heard, 4 stroke anyway

    Never tried to upload a video but I've got one on my phone of a YZR500 being warmed up not 5min from my place. That sounded great. But Doohans Screamer NSR500 at Philip Island was probably the best bike I've heard.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    Listening to all the bikes at Phillip Island MotoGP in 2006, the sweetest sounding was the Suzuki. I have no auditory loyalty to the marque, that was just how it sounded. That thing really was a super screamer.

    It may have been that it was using too much power making angry noises?

    my Z1300 sounds like a zephry at idel then just sings at high revs, CBX's are pretty cool too.

    I note in the Youtube comments the usual " I had a '73 Gt 750. I had rebuilt the engine to 900 cc displacement blah blah...."

    He has seen people asking $4000 for a fucked over GN250 and figures that some fool will pay a bit more for his thing. Can't really fault the logic there....
