good stuff mate:) did you race for long?
About 6 years in all.. started out in a bad way with a serious crash but I climbed back on as soon as I could and never looked back.
Once I won the Vic titles and the Hughie Hoare Memorial race in 2008 I said enough...
Then got into 4wding instead.

Lot more modern than me I'll dig out a pic of my Honda 1100R going around Winton [old winton]
Aussie I used to race unlimited production years ago, also rode in a Melb M/C club, mind you I had hair then
Most races in WA but raced on most Vic tracks even Hume weir If that rings a bell?

Yes I know the Hume track.. I had the most modified Kawasaki GPz900R in the country.. built it in my lounge room.
I know the 1100r well I know Rex wolferton very well.
The bike in my avatar is the GPz

Yeah I am a big fan of naked bikes... I have owned about 40 bikes and have strong routs in the old stuff!!!
Here is Oscar, he would come on rides for miles and go to sleep on the petrol tank while travelling at 100kmh

Heres pic of one of my last bikes, 10.5 quarter mile, top speed 280 kph. Essendon to Yarrawonga,pre freeway 1 hr 10 mins
Hand built only 30 came to Australia I paid $5000 now $35k plus, wish I had hindsight
CB 1100R RB single seater, bummer with the chicks , though a dual seat option was available
For Aussie the pipe is a Tingate off Malcom Campbells super bike, Don't ask what it cost please, lets just say lots

Yeah know the bike well and I know where there is one in a crate and never been assembled ... makes me cry!!!
The exhaust on my GPz900R was a full titanium system from Japan worth about $2500-$3000 and I paid $700 for it... then I squashed it at Broadford, boo hoo!!!!
