I know what happened - you were getting towed by an XJR and the guy on the speedy waved you by. That must have been embarrassing LOL

Yeah and that XJR was towing trailer aswell , b-double bikin' :rockon:....... Never seen a tow bar for an FZ1 but i know they do make training wheels for it :BLAA: :Flip: ohh hang perhaps that was a sidecar :rof:

 

[Humperdinkel]

I can honestly say I've never seen an XJR on Lobie road.....

Maybe there's a weigh bridge up there, and they won't let anything on the road that's over a bajillion kilos.

Come to think of it, I don't reckon I've seen one in the hills at all. Or parked at Lobie.

You still comin' down in March Mr. Humpy?....You could be the first:cheer:

im waiting for my holidays to be approved so watch this space

Just so happens i found tonight that my mates 2007 R1 is no match for the mighty XJR..... Till 150ish anyway , of course when we got up there he snicked an extra gear for starters and pulled away but over the 1st 300 metres or so he had absolutely no answers :cheer: and his is a bike that runs 10.41 second 1/4's :Flip: puts the the 'Semi' into the very low 11's or with a lighter rider a high 10 by my math's and that my friends is ultra respectable out of a 'Armchair'.... Either way i love my baby :rockon:

Mikey, gazza and myself have had an R1 pilot tell us we were nuts, and that there was no way he could try to keep up, at a stop on a group ride...guess it depends on the rider....

Hey humpy, you sure your mate wasn't riding one of those new trick looking R125's??? :BLAA:

That's sorta what the R1 does to an FZ1. Wish we had a drag strip in Adelaide. I always wanted to know what the FZ6 would've gotten stock, and now I would like to know about the FZ1.

I've seen a 10.8 on you tube, but don't know if it was stock or not

Just put your arm in a sling and go to work......when they ask what happened, say, "My gun jammed." as though that explains it all (Edit...Must have psycho look in eyes). Then ask them if your leave has been approved.:thumbup:...lol.

From memory, I think someone from this site pulled a 12.1 on a stock fz6! And I reckon that's pretty decent!

They are when your riding with your buddies! :rockon:

Yeah, but the local gov't round here keeps forgetting to put up the timer displays. Freaking useless they are.....might be time to write another letter......didn't answer my last one
