Shouldn't be too many r model zxr750's there so should be easy to spot. I also should be there on the 888 as long as this weeks service doesn't throw any surprises.

I'd be VERY surprised if there was another 888 there.

well that doesn't count, girly blouse.

I've only ever seen 1 other 888 on the road in NZ, and that was a SP5 at the kiwi in something like 2001.

I've seen a few in shops but no-one seems to actually ride them.
