    Must say the RDs were certainly a buzz when I was young, that powerband was a nice mad touch, owned a GT 550 triple which was quite a screamer too.

    Yeah the Busa is awesome for getting out and about doing the distance but a hand full round the hills, The Gixer is the other way around..... and wayyyyyy better at wheelies, But still I stick to the 1st post in this thread as the most thrilling

    Yep,had one of these things too (2000)......the only real adrenelen rush was trying to get the bloody thing to stop and corner at warp 9......not real exciting doing 300+ the bloody thing just sits there accelerating,fun the first couple of times but it wears off. (btw 3500k from a rear?what were you doing,commuting?)Mind you 250k wheelies are something else....still stable as too even on the rear.
    But the turbo still scares the shit outta me when I ride it,even after getting off the 12.Sorry folks if you haven't ridden a hooted up turbo you'll never really appreciate what myself and speedpro are on about.....

    Just say the word and I'm there guys, Allthogh My Turb was more like the powerband of a nifity 50 in comparasion to your 2 bikes (McZ1, ZX) I do have an Idea of what hides behind those bikes, not that I'd ever really find out the full extent if I was to ride them.... I'd still chicken out way before 200hp arived.

    Na you.d be alright once ya hit 200kp/h ya might as well keep on going, cause ya screwed if crash and ya srewed if theres a cop, so give it death and ride like the devil. Just pic the right time and place
