cycosis - you state your interests as Riding and X box...

Is this the same relation as the young kids who say they like "street racing" and are into Colin McRae Rally on PS2?

Don't be offended, just playing wit ya.

... and I can't talk as got MotoGP on PS2 for Xmas and with my lack of co-ordination/skills on this, I shouldn't even venture out on a scooter!

No,not into street racing,just racing up the taka's or over paikok,there the only decent handy roads in wellys.save the street racing for the trackdays,when i first started riding,well yes,was a bit loose & stupid.

I've rode Hondas since day 1 and think that 600s are well suited for wellington roads,the bike aint no slouch and have had no problem with its performance,exceeded expectations to be honest,love it,would like a 600 RR thou

I took a look at a website that showed the whole set of those pics and it nearly turned my stomach!

He proved the rule that "helmets are a necessity"! Then again, he looked fairly irresponsible without any protective gear on also...may God have mercy on his soul.

Now Linda that's no way to talk about us. This Guy's looking for "insane" riders. We ride hard to regain our sanity. After a week of driving at the speed limit anybody would go insane. Owning a fast bike and not going fast- now that's insane. Those people should be banned from our roads, or atleast stick to conjested motorways and free up good roads for those who appreciate them. Anyway Cycosis (what were your parents thinking when they named you that?) you've got the bike for the Hill and your ex-mate on the VTR as well (my last bike), so may see you up there soon. While daylight lasts the evenings are shit hot for quick runs over the Takas. My 999 mate and I had a blast Friday. Had the road to ourselves, sneaked in a few wheelies for the public good - they don't mind officer really. And for those into stoppies I have been experimenting and 70kph seems best for me to keep the rear in the air longest.
ps- I saw a green Kwaka going at serious speed the other day on the hill. Couldn't make out the model as we passed in opposite directions but well done that masked man whoever you are!

Hi, I checked out your bike picture. Was it you I pulled up beside last Friday after work on the Hutt M/way? We were both heading to the hill. The Guy I saw up the hill was on a full faired Kwaka with a bit of white around the tailpiece - I think. Wasn't the latest 2003 shape, maybe a couple of models old. Great to see someone going full tit.

If you had a red mohawk and a red screen and turned off at Silverstream (wondered then which "hill" you were going to), then the answer is yes!!

Unfortunatly, I find it difficult to get away on weekends (kids, wife works) hence the weeknight rides.

If I don't see you before hand, however, I'll see you at the Hillclimb on the 7th. I'm the one on the Purple/Yellow "Gay" 600
