    I do NOT want to taste your arse. I'm pretty firm on that.

    Actually, I do need more money...

    My LC? you mean Skunk Control's LC. Bugger it.

    Well I surprised myself last night & took the tail piece off the 50 & sanded it down & hit it with some primer. I might even find some paint & touch it up a little. Wow we're being flash for this event.

    . . . Of course there is always the weekend before to spank it up again.

    Anyone else realise that this thread is bigger than the actual TRRS thread. The buckets are taking over!

    Check this out

    Took the Delta and 5 Hundy to Taupo for a Suzuki track day yesterday. Met up with Tim Fraser of Auckland. Had a real blast buckets were having a field day in the beginner class. The two 150's making some large capacity spotsbikes look very average.

    Then I got Busted and flagged off cos the Delta wasn't a genuine Suzuki. The bike was cleared by the track Steward, then one of the track marshals got real anal and I was flagged off. I was gutted after I'd spoke to the right people and got the bike approved.

    Oh well, good job I took along the 5 Hundy then. The GS 500 is hardly a sportsbike and felt like a tank after riding the Delta. It was certainly quicker on the straight sections but about even with the buckets on the infield.

    Stepped up into the intermediate class. Which was better riding than with the wobblers. Had some delays due to crashes. At least 3 GSXR's, with 2 being almost certain write offs.

    Tim stepped up into the intermediates with me for the last ride, and it was all on, He thrashed the nuts off that poor little FXR, and I had to work bloody hard to keep up. We blitzed a lot of the field, getting creamed only on the straights.

    Here's a couple of pics of what you've all got to look forward to. Check out Tim coming outside to big sports bikes into the front straight.

    Tim Frazer (39) FXR150, Steve Hillier (7) GS 500 and (7) Dleta
