Been a Honda guy since early 70s
This one did 10.5sec 1/4 mile and top speed of 280kph
Only 6 came to Australia dont I wish I still had it
Its a CB 1100r RB single seat 1981 model
That is a $700 tingate exhaust,
Threedogs, thats awesome. Do you still have her?
Only bike I've owned that hasn't been a honda is my 96' Kwak ZX6r trackbike.
I started on an old CBR250, then went to a Firestorm, a CBR929R, a CBR1000RR and now an XR600R. I love my Hondas.
When I worked at Tom Price in WA I ordered the first Kwaka 900 black motor when the boat was late
and I had my 2 weeks off I ended up buying a 750 4 honda custom painted black with a white strip
Over the years kept with the 750 in many guises sometimes it was bored to 900cc but the fastest was
when it was bored to 810cc, It ate 1100cc Kwakas and I mean ate them, had a V4 750 but didnt like
the small front wheel, wife went into hospital saw the 1100r and fell in love, Worked at a lot of places as a bike mechanic
over the years. but sadly only look now. Harleys weren't around till about late 70s early 80s if that
most rode Triumph or BSA both cheap being ex cop bikes.
Raced production and unlimited in WA and here in Vic nothing fancy but was competitve I think
I searched the net extensively to find a replacement oscilloscope, and when the cash became available I purchased one I thought was priced right yesterday. I turned the puter on today and found a better unit I had my eye on had its price dropped by $62 which brought it down to within my budget. Freaky!!!
Being up to my arm pits in petrol, caustic soda and hot water all afternoon, then find a brand new fuel tank in Oz for $300. Grrrr
Not angry but very very sad to see the devastation that has happened in Yarloop overnight, pretty much the town wiped out by bushfire, the news is saying 95 homes, shops, the pub and the steam workshops all gone. The steam workshops was one of the best museums i have ever been to, i feel absolutely gutted for all the volunteers and all their hard work they've put in over the years turning it into a great tourist attraction.
Thankfully so far there has been no reported loss of life, here's hoping that remains the same.
