Current rides are 2009 Tricolour K1300S, had the rear shock rebuilt, service and revalved with a spring to suit a 110kg rider, rides very nice now. Had that about 6 months now after getting hit by a car on the ZX12R which was a very nice bike.
Had heaps of bikes in the last 6 years, 3 years ago i went and sold 5 bikes and bought a brand new GSXR750 2022, done a bit of work to that, full titanium Yoshi exhaust, Brembo RCS19 master cylinder, braided front and back brake lines, quickshifter, ECU flash, making 132.5HP at the rear wheel. Still got that bike.
Bought, fixed, rode and sold quite a few of the 250cc 4 cylinder Japanese bikes from around 1990. Honda MC19, MC22, currently i have a 1989 FZR250R which has had the valves done, did the clutch, carbs etc, revs out to 18,500rpm, needs a little more work.
I was a motorcycle instructor for a few years teaching people to ride from scratch. Got to do a lot of rider training on the track with that job, Hopefully my riding skills have benefited from that.
Was thinking of posting up the pictures from previous years Australian Rallies, i always enjoyed flicking back through those threads when they were on the iBMW site. I wont mention that old site again.
Anyways, i gettin old now, just turned 53, my boys are 7 and 11, i taught them to ride on a PW50 a few years ago, and they are slowly progressing. They are scared of the PW80 after seeing me ride it...
Hope everybody is well and still riding.
Cheers
