Now I know I might sound deprived but I have never ridden a Ginny. The style of the motor looks like the old model DR250 motor of the vintage the GN came from. How would they compare in performance to a DR250 or the later DR250 or DRZ250 twin cam engines?

So in language of my vintage "what'll she do?" because I'm wondering are they more top end than the dirt motors or are they milder for learners. I see they have the twin header pipes.

My GN does 130kph if I put my head down... which I do regularly... cause its fun. In the wind like yesterday coming home she did 90..

I might enter her in the sprints on Sunday for a laugh.

So everyone was standing around having a chat and enjoying it.

Then it was off to the top of the Rimutakas and as you can see it was ... well ... dull!
