Who has ever owned a Japper? O.K, you own a nice BMW or Triumph at the moment, but what really interested you back in 1968? A Honda CB125 or a Yamaha FS1E? Was a Kawasaki Mach III or Z1 of any interest to you? Did a Honda CB750 with those four cylinders, carbies and pipes get you going? It's all pretty ho-hum now isn't it, but it wasn't back then, was it?
Do you ride a GSXR now? If so, do you want to show it?
I'm trying to gauge what amount of interest there is for a Japper only bike show. Who has a Rice-Burner put away in the back of the shed? Are you interested in showing it? Does your 1999 Fireblade get you going? Do you have a Yamaha YDS3 or a Suzuki 50cc from 1968 or a Suzuki Stinger or Hustler. A Waterbus or Titan, Suzuki T350 or Cobra? What have you? I don't care as long as you are passionate about your old Japanese motorcycle. And does anyone out there have a Kawasaki W1 or a restored Kawasaki Silver Pigeon or restored Fuji Industries Rabbit Junior scooter?
Please email me at toycollector10@gmail.com if you are interested in putting your Japanese motorcycle on a trailer or riding it down to a hall where we can show these old bikes off. The Triumph, BSA, BMW, British and European boys and Jokers MC have all had shows but when was the last Japper show held in Christchurch...or anywhere?
I can't guarantee that we will have space for every bike but we won't know until we have some idea of the interest in a show.
Please get in contact by email letting me know what your bike is and include a picture or two or phone 03 357 0481 after 11 AM....If there is no reply please leave a message including your email address and I will get back to you.
Also, if you are in Christchurch and have any constructive comments or suggestions to make on this website please feel free to do so.
Regards, TC, aka Mark.
