In one of my previous posts I mentioned that the honda guys at the motorshow had told me something interesting. This would be it. I can see Honda Riders club membership increasing for this.

If you check out the events page on the Honda's Riders Club Events Page you will see on the below info

Unfortunately the Entries Page Doesn't have a entry form up yet. I spoke to the HRCA and they said it should be up in a few days, but that was 5 days ago.

Patience seems to be required. :hyper:

Be interesting to test the 1000RR to the 954..

I'd just be happy to sit on one at this stage. With any luck I'll have my CBR1000RR before May rolls around.....but just in case I should book myself in, I'm sure I'm going to need something to help me get through the waiting now my money is on the table.

 

[mickyboy]

Hell yeah...I'll be there !! VERY curious to see what sort of times I could do on the 1000 vs my 954 with suspension work, Micron etc.

VERY curious !!

Yeah that sounds great, hopefully HRCA will be sending out info with there next mag/newsletter! Would be great thrashing that thing around the track knowning you dont have to foot the bill if things got ugly :evilaugh:

I've had m,ates go on some the past blade blasts around the island, before they let you loose on one of their bikes you have to sign an insurance form which you agree to pay for the excess if you damage the bike, and it was something ridiculous like $2000 (maybe even higher). It made my mates take it easy when riding one of the bikes to the point you do not push it too hard to feel the bike out cause $ signs keep appearing

Would still be fun to open her up on the straight to see how she pulls - let's face it, a straight is pretty safe...

Unless of course I'm on the same straight with you....but you should be pretty safe from me up in NSW.

That right Vics, fear me!. Especially if there are any wallabies around!!! :evilaugh:

$2000 :crying: But figured as much

Yep, details are going to be in the HRCA mag or so I was told at the Melb Motorshow. But they probably should appear first on the website.

Also what ratter said would definately apply.

Anyone hassled HRCA yet to see if we can presssure them into getting the forms up.

Am I the only one who thinks Matt's had a hard on the entire thread?

[matt232]

Entry form is up now

[The Sook]

Dealers are down at PI now riding them. As I ain't a Honda dealer as of July, I didn't get the invite. hahaha. DAMN. Haha
BUT, I will have a white blade and a black blade here at the shop tomorrow. (Thursday 7/4)

 

[matt232]

Bugger, looks like I might not be able to participate now, you need to have leathers (a restriction for PI alone :rant: ), I've got a Cordura gear but no leathers, what an absolute barstard! :rant:

Sechuling it for a Wednesday and Thursday doesn't help either. :rant:

Sweet ! What colour ? What did you pay ?

 

[aussie_929]

Red and black. Paid $19900. Seems like the standard price everywhere with the exception of Sook's.
