Engine Size Questions

[sidecar bob]

You big boys are so cool. Oh how manly I think you are.
Fuck off to your own sandpit. Everyone thinks yer being tits. And you are.

We don't get all affronted when someone wants to come & play with us without honing their bore first.
Have you considered how you guys come across to adults?
We're taking the piss, because you guys make it easy to do so.

[F5 Dave]

Oh sorry. I didn't realise you were taking the Piss. I thought you were trying to be a self righteous prick with an inflated sense of self importance. My mistake.

I thought it was clear that he isn't a bucket racer.

Well that's fairly ironic right there, given the discussion in this thread by a small minded Bunch of amateur race bike builders, who seem to resist any attempts to drag their class out of the dark ages.
Maybe there are people out ther that would like to race at that level that lack the skills & equipment to make bikes look as embarrassing as you guys manage to. Have a think about that.

I am not sure a dressed up GN125 would be dragging F4 out of the dark ages.

Bob for all your trash "Troll" talk, the fact remains, as good as the intention is, and we applaud it, from where we stand the choice of bike for the GXRS series looks to be a missed opportunity.

[F5 Dave]

No Bob. The irony is that you think being patronising makes you the the adult in this conversation.

And the riders of the class should decide how it progresses, not some fat old has-been .

Myself included of course.

Fuck you, leave my GN out of this

You really don't seem to know that much about the class or maybe it's a bit different up Norf, there's bugger all Buckets down here that wouldn't smash the new Gixxer150 including my own and mines about the scruffiest

who is 'we' and just how many of 'we' are there that would go out and purchase a brand spanking new bike to go bucket racing? Suzuki have been top selling brand in nz for 19 years now, they're not fools, they would have looked carefully into this, so carefully that they sent one of these bikes to europe for brake declaration soo it would comply with nz roads.
how many of 'we' went out and purchased a new FXR150 when they were the weapon to have?

in 2006 the Fxr could not be bought new. I would of bought the gsxr150 for a young rider if the injected bike. At least could be made a good bucket after

[mr bucketracer]

I would of liked it as a road bike

[jellywrestler]

the new gixxer lap record at manfield is about 13 seconds off the development lap record, aren't buckets all about modifying bikes, there's somethung to aim for.

I figured that, So why the fear of these things?
Or are the bucket guys worried it won't be retard central anymore if normal people on normal bikes turn up?

Why would it have to go to Europe to get one?

Not so much going out and buying them for Buckets as giving the guys who did buy them extra opportunity to be able to race them and with being Bucket legal quite possibly making them worth more for resale

We'll see when they get to Ruapuna and Levels as that will give us direct comparison against Bucket lap times here
