Hi There new AUSSIE member

Hey guys & girls just wanted to say Hi

I think we should put a cap on how many Aussies we have. we seem to be getting a lot lately.

Re: Hi There new AUSSIE member

and

Add another Aussie to the mix....thats what I like to see.....

Ratter looks like the 1000RR population in the Aussie camp is growing you might just have to upgrade that clunky old 954.

I'll see you over in the Aussie thread TheShredder3 (don't worry when you see it you'll know which one).

I'll upgrade my 954 when I'm good enough to ride a 1000 better than I can ride the 954...

Will, I'd much prefer to sacrifice boot space in favour of the under tail. I would have throught the pillion seat would be pretty bad too but surpisingly I haven't had any complaints from any pillions so far, even while on a 300km+ ride.

Re: Hi There new AUSSIE member

Stock 1000RR makes 150 at the wheel. Zee, I rekon you WOULD ride the 1000 faster than the 954. It's just such an awesome thing to ride.

Welcome Shredder. Let me know if/when you need a pipe/system, rears ets etc for you bike.

I take it that the photo shoot was for S&R Pro magazine if it is a Turbo's Busa? Sorry, I meant Rapid bikes, or whatever they call it this week. Haha

yeah it was for Rapid
But it's got nothing to do with SnR pro.
I brought the kit from the states & fitted it all myself.
