    Flying quarter...

    You can all guess where I'm going with this, but has anyone ever seen a GN250 do a flying quarter?

    I'll take that as a no then.

    Cool, I'll have to do it.
    Assuming I can ride a motorcycle by now, without flipping, I'll aim for 150km/h. I reckon I'll be chuffed with that

    Been looking at those results
    I'll have `44hp and I'd be pretty chuffed if it pulled 150.
    I'm planning to have some extra lzy gearing though, for teh thumpy cruising.

    I hear one just opened up...

    Picky one with the right shaft angle and flying quarter might be a very apt description indeed.

    It won't make much of a mess if I flip it though, but seeing a GN off the clock will be a laugh
