BFTP - Blast From The Past Rides

[Richard Mc F]

Grrr still no starter for my old eytie beast..............so I grabbed a '93 fireblade from work, a bity new for this trip so went up sh1 and back 16 wit a couple of friends, did spot you guys at Hallertau though ( bikes that is ) you must have arrived while I was sucking the pint as I spotted the bikes as I was escaping.

Next time!

great pics dave, thanks!

great ride today guys, enjoyed it thoroughly

hey richard mc f, dont worry about the starter - the spirits today were high and i'm sure there'd be volounteers to jump start your bike or even push-start it
some peeps had to fix a carb prob on the side of the road, i lost a screw or two... one guy lost a part of the exhaust sys last time... it's all part of the fun


caseye, that new beer's good, aye?

We need parts to fall off so a trail is created for the Harley riders to follow


Had a great time today thanks everyone. Nice to meet new peeps and see some really cool old bikes. Looking forward to catching up again for the next one.

Sorry mate,
Just found the post about this and woulda' been keen.
Went on the Hellensville to Walkworth and back on Sunday and saw hundreds of bikes- only they all seemed less then 10 years old..
Send me a PM next time, not on here enough to keep track.
Regards,
Mike

I just wanted to say sorry I couldnt stick around after the ride, things to do and all that.

it was a great ride and you can count me in for the next one for sure, and I promise to clean my bike before the ride next time

[SeppoDave]

Yeah, I don't know how you can go out with it looking like that.

Project "Z" is coming along, I have to make a tank, tail end and fairing for it.

Im probably going to style it a bit on the ZX10.

It looks pretty bad at the moment but when its put together and the paintwork done it will look a whole lot better.

Im aiming for 200BHP from the engine, the wheelbase is 100mm shorter than the standard Z1300, upside down forks (ZX12R) single shock rear (Hayabusa) ZX12R wheels, Z1300 fuel injection and a Subaru WRX Turbo
