Cods..... So the bike was too hard for you? .... Ummm... What was it?..... Oh yeah  HTFU!!!! 

Maybe you can visit with mister this arvo and have a few spoonfuls of his cement powder!! 

I think you missed the bit at the bottom where I said I would do it all again. I think that makes me Hard enough

[codajastal]

Was there ANYTHING good about the bike? 

Yep, the bike was cool as and would buy one in a heart beat

Not hard enough to stop your whinging though! 

[slipperymongoose]

I turned petrol into noise and shredded rubber

[Zookmang]

Noise indeed. Bastard things. Whenever a bunch of harleys go past my house the TV reception goes f**ky and you can't hear yourself think!

[yamahonkawazuki]

weird never have had that issue here.

[slipperymongoose]

Too few Harley's perhaps?

Think I will have to re-upload without your shoutout Janxy.

Joe from Red jacket is coming to Australia for a visit. To Brisbane actually. Wonder if he'll be mobbed at the airport by guntot'n rednecks, or quietly slip in unannounced as most people won't know who is is, and those who do will be like "Oh look, it's Joe" and then go about their business. I think the latter.

[codajastal]

I don't think he will be mobbed. Are they letting in ex cons here now?

My 2006 Harley is (proudly) bone stock and has 3200 miles on the odo.
My 2006 Suzuki has been modded and tweaked x10 and has 46,000 miles on the odo.
Draw your own conclusions.

Potato, potato, potato. . .

The torque of a Harley is awesome, no doubt about it! Would I ever buy one? Nup... can't stop, can't turn, feet blown off the footpegs at 90+kph... for me that's not going to provide any riding enjoyment.

Would I buy a Buell though? You betya! All that torque in a chassis that turns, has big brakes, and won't blow your feet off the pegs... sounds good to me!

Katana gets first preference but if the opportunity ever presented itself I think a Buell could be gob loads of low RPM fun in the twisties... just hold the same gear corner after corner and ride the torque...

The Harley I've ridden beside my little 450:

[slipperymongoose]

What time was that yesterday Pete?

[Electrojake]

A Suzuki Katana?
That was a 25 year run for Suzuki.
Last produced in 2006?

[peteGS]

What time was that yesterday Pete?

Nah that was during the September Katana Australia/GS Resources run to Urbenville. I rode it from Fernvale to Boonah.

A Suzuki Katana?
That was a 25 year run for Suzuki.
Last produced in 2006?

Noooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You bloody Yanks and your abuse of the true Katana name!

Except for the Japanese home market, the *real* Katanas stopped in about '85. This was the last:

[slipperymongoose]

Mmmk yeah I did a malany run yesterday with twisted

[peteGS]

Nice... haven't seen Twisted posting on here in a while... unless he's just posting places I don't read 

More fiddling with carbs today, felt great yesterday but when cold it's a bit hesitant/lurchy just off idle and I had the mixture screws back out to 3 turns, so another quarter turn out this avo' and see how she goes tomorrow.

Also got the shed base leveling finished up yesterday, next pay includes budget for concrete, so about 3 weeks I reckon and I should have a shed base done 

[yamahonkawazuki]

dont blame the yanks on the can-a-tuna thing. blame suzuki, THEN blame the buyers lol. its all good though.

[peteGS]

But blaming Yanks is fun 

No comeback though? That's pretty lame 

I really need to get me a real Katana though... and if the shed base really is done in about 3 weeks that will mean things can start to get moving at long last! Who would've thought it would take 10 months to dig a hole? 

[Electrojake]

It's been said that any bike shipped to the US market is $1000 dollars more expensive, ten pounds heavier, and 5 MPH slower than any other market.

And you people know how much I simply love the government and their asinine regulations. <sigh>
