CYCOSISGood Samaritan.Currently on 4 wheels...God Dam It!!!!!
15 years.
pe185
yamaha xz 400
yamaha xj600
honda vfr 750 current
kwaka kdx 250 current
learnt heaps on the yamahas (mostly how to pull bikes apart) but were fun to ride. would like to get a bigger bike but I just know Ill thrash it. Rode my mates gsxr1100 a few times, nice accelerationbut the vfr's suits me and would have to fork out heaps of dosh to replace it with something else. And i also own a complete spare vfr, just cant seem to be bothered fitting the mint fairings. Plus ive just rebuilt all the shocks (well a guy called goden gizzler {sp?} has) and she handels sooo well now...............
Next bike might have to be a motard. If you like corners those things rok!! and your less likely to get fines.
dont break your cake

So Zed, I never got off KB... missed The Starrmans call... will tell you about the VFR once I know!!


I must say you ride 'exceptionally well' for a noob TS! To be on your 150cc and leading a group of fast riders on a gixxer1000, a gixxer750, and my CBR600, you sure impressed me...tad slow on the straights that's allOriginally Posted by Two Smoker
. I just hope that a serious crash won't slow you down too much? You know when you said to me on Sunday "it's not a matter of if, it's a matter of when!"
Looking forward to seeing your new wheels soon. Take care out there.
Zed

Started in late '87 thanks to that Gardner fella, but had an enforced break for many years till 2001. Pretty much been on them since then and still learning everytime I head out on the road or track.
In order... Old Blue Suzuki TL185 (or was it a TS?), '01 Yellow VTR250, '03 Matt Black VTR1000, '03 Silver GSXR1000, '03 Red VTR1000. And of course the bucket racing CB150T too![]()
Full licence at 15 in 1968. First was a 250 Royal Enfield but it never went and mum made me take it back. Then 350 AJS powered Velocette, followed by a 500 Matchless G9. Discovered jap trailbikes in 1972 - Kawasaki Bighorn 350. Followed by a Yamaha Dt175, then a DT250. Then to speedway bikes - JAP, Jawa 2v, Weslake and Jawa 4v. They kept me busy for about 16 years. Back onto roadies with a Honda 750F1, a gap of many years then the Suzuki GS1100GK and the IT400.
Thats not very many bikes for quite a few years. Would like something newer, but... priorities.
it's not a bad thing till you throw a KLR into the mix.
those cheap ass bitches can do anything with ductape.

I've only seen one or two F4i's up here in Ak. I bought a 2K non-injected F4 model which is awesome and just getting better, so I know where you're coming from!Originally Posted by cycosis
