show us your motor bike

Mate brought a RGV 500 Suzuki two stroke years ago and said take it for a spin.
I said Wow goes ok for a 500,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,a few weeks later he said
now take it for another spin, which I did and came back shaking WTF I said
what have you done,, He said it was only running on 3 the first time.
Now these things were basically race bikes with lights and a power band to die for.
a great bike to point into a corner and power on.


For you guys in the northern burbs heres one Hit King Lake set the throttle to 100kph
and dont back off till you hit the Flowerdale pub, that will keep you Honest lol

I also have a heap of Two Wheels magazines from the 50's makes awesome reading

Just watched Harley Davison TV over here ,,,,,they are doing Broome to Brisbane on a variety of Harleys.
Wow not a very good touring bike IMO some only had a range of 310k and they want to sit on 130 kph
once they hit the Northern Territory, yeah good luck with that, mind you they do have a fully kitted semi following
Plus a big Ford 250 or similar with extra fuel and to carry all their bags in an enclosed trailer, very funny IMO

Anyone who enjoys reading about motorcycle trips might be interested in checking out something I put up on the net about a trip I did with my son 16 years ago.

I got under 200km before hitting reserve on the VTR once when a bunch of mates and I were riding from the west coast of Wales to the east coast of England.. we were in a bit of a hurry as we had to catch a ferry.

went for a ride this weekend and camped out...stopped for a pie and coffee this morning and this bloke came past,Bike Car...you take your pick i suppose

Just a dirt bike for me. The wife made me sell the R6 and is highly against me getting back on the black top!

Attachment 64719 this is mine its an 03 525exc, currently up for grabs if anyones intrested, had it a couple of years and only ridden it a few times, turns out its too much bike for me these days with a leg full of metal work after putting my old zx6 off the side of the gor 6 years ago
