My bikes. But i recently sold the KTM690 Duke as I needed the room.

1996 ZX6R Ninja with brembo master cylinder and braking Wave front rotors and braided lines. This thing makes an awesome daily ride and with the brake upgrade stops like a demon! Comphy as with the new seat and keeps up on the twisties with most new bikes! I prefer this bike than both my old 05 Fireblade and 06 R6.
2009 KTM 450 EXC-F Enduro weapon and Rallye bike.
1999 Beta Techno 250 Trials bike, awesome fun in the limestone quarries!

[Halle Terry]

Is Trials hard? I imagine it's not a fuckign easy thing to get stuck into!

[DRIFT13]

Trials isn't hard at all really, it's just time and patience. It's a lot of fun to just find a Limestone quarry somewhere and just ride around hopping up ledges and balancing on the edge of them. I'm pretty useless really, but the best bit is it's slow fun, and when I get back on the 450 everything seems so easy!

ohlins front and rear suspension , procircuit Ti slip on , also got a set of gold talons hubs and gold excel rims for race day.

I started on a ZZR250 when I was 17 which got stolen so I had to resort to my old man's 1999 GSX1300R Hayabusa

Was pretty much stock apart from cruise control and the Remus Carbon cans, cracked over $3.00 on it, unlike other big bikes still feels solid.

My first track day on it (shit jacked & jeans = no knee down!) Thing is a bitch around the track, could overtake on the straight no problem as it had the balls but under brakes & turning was interesting (Nearly 100kg heavier than your average 600)

http://i1000.photobucket.com/albums/af122/Rigggs/Bikes/IMG_0347_web.jpg

Rode around in that for ages then he up and bought a 2011 BMW S1000RR (Incredible bike) Currently stock as a rock but have a few plans for it.

Electronics belong in cars was reading about the new Ducati Patagonia or what ever it is and the new BMW 1000rr in latest Rapid mag and they both have that many electronics the journo said it's pretty much impossible to get in trouble when they are all set to full assist. Traction control, abs, tip and wheelie sensors. Sure the bikes are/will be fast I think it takes away some of the thrill of riding.

Yeah I'm not going to lie, part of the fun of my bike is how it scares the shit out of me from time to time.

Just wish the fucker had a dry clutch :(

Don't know about the 12' models but on the 11' S1000RR its not all that restrictive, Has 4 modes Rain, Sport, Race, Slick (Slick you need to ask BMW to activate with a code as it does not come enabled from factory, "too aggressive for the road" they say)

Rain - feels very sluggish and lazy, wheelie & traction control are very restrictive. Also cuts about 50HP, but will still mash 600s.
Sport - is like any other bike, never really pushed it in this mode so can't really comment
Race - still has all electronics enabled but I have locked the front without ABS kicking in and have had the rear stepping out without TC taking over so the electronics are very relaxed.
Slick - is 100% aggression, all electronics are off and throttle response it razor sharp but far from un-rideable on the street.

Nah not worth the money to be honest, Just do the cam timing mod and re jet the carby and they make the same power. Still reliable as it was stock as long as you get the jeting correct. But once the big bore kit goes in the cams will help out then.

[mr_mike]

Wouldn't mind a cafe bike, although they are a bit like the fixie of the motorbike world, 90% style 10% function

[S133LTR]

Yeah.. Thats horse shit.. They can be made to go, stop and handle no problem.

Vbroom; good job dude.. I love it.

[mr_mike]

I never said they couldn't don't get me wrong I love the look of cafe racer style bikes but most are stripped out small capacity bikes with drum brakes. They get built for cruising about and not really pushing the limits. Of course there are exceptions.

[vbroom]

Fair call but we are still aiming to push ours for what it is.
We've stripped a good 5kg off our bike which already weighs next to nothing. We're running bigger carbs, stacks, electronic ignition and straight through exhaust.
And we're aiming to do the ton on this thing so i'd say our cafe is as much about performance as it is looks.
If we were about limits we would've chosen a bigger capacity bike to start with and we already built a 98R1 so we're kinda over the go stupidly fast thing.

Check out Nigels KTM turned Cafe bike on ETS. Did an awesome job. I'd link it, but I'm on my phone and it's a pain to do.

[mr_mike]

If that was lowered about 2-3" even just enough to level out the swingarm that would look awesome. Can appreciate the fab work gone into tho. If I can find an old bike cheap enough one day I'll build a cafe or bobber out of it.

Great photo Jan!
Glad you ended up with the newer style termis but THIS is why I tried to get you to buy the whole 70mm exhaust instead of just the slips ons.. how is the bike going so far mate? Loving it?

[EVLO]

haha do love the full system pipework, but couldn't justify the $$ for it.....

Bike is fantastic, so much fun to ride. I've nearly put on as many km's in 2 weeks as the first owner put on in 18 months.... hahaha

[Kaido]

Great photo Jan!
Glad you ended up with the newer style termis

really? i much prefer the older style which has the same design as stock pipes

FYI Pro Italia having a closeout sale

Termi mainfold and ecu 1.5k US
http://store.proitalia.com/ducati-1198-2010-termignoni-manifoldsecu-p-29267.html

Wish my ducati would hurry up and arrive :(

[EVLO]

new style for me definitely, having said that i could live with the old ones as well...

[Jazza]

I've nearly put on as many km's in 2 weeks as the first owner put on in 18 months.... hahaha

No wonder somebody saw a you bought a white Ducati and asked if you bought it off me! hahaha Great to hear dude. Stay safe and enjoy!
P.S. I made sure when I ordered a few years ago it was the new pipes, they fit the shape of the tail so much nicer, I don't get how anyone could prefer the older style.

[mr_mike]

Will have to organize an AL bike run once the weather clears up

[Riggs]

I'd be keen, if we can make it happen.

[Halle Terry]

Bike should be back in a week and a bit. Just waiting to hear back from Pro-Italia if the clutch cover they have on sale fits my bike:

http://store.proitalia.com/images/260-96853608b.jpg

Then I'm back in business.

[Brute]

Keen, just not in the next 2 weeks.

[Kaido]

1199 panigale

[Halle Terry]

Wow!

When's it arriving!?

[Kaido]

Wow!

When's it arriving!?

July/August :( But its looking more like August atm... the wait is killing me :( only good thing is that by the time it arrives i should have some dollars save for some carbon stuff :D

[Halle Terry]

Very jealous!

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/5eInD72jWfY" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

[Kaido]

Very jealous!

Can not wait, originally was going for the 848, took one for a test ride and like it but didn't feel right then was going to bite the bullet and buy a black 1198S that fraser had in there show room for 25k and only 2,000km.

Went back down the fraser they had the 1199 on the showroom floor fell in love, sign the papers that day lol completely impulse buy if my mate that owns a monster wasn't there with me i doubt i would have put my money down that day lol.

Now just need to work out if im going to go full termi system or BST carbon wheels :/

[Halle Terry]

Haha funnily enough when I went for a test ride, I basically rode down the road and just went 'Yep I'm buying one' didn't even bother looking at other bikes I had on my list.

Can't wait to see that bad boy in the flesh, selling the 'tard and the R1 I take it?

[Kaido]

R1 is already sold :( initial was going to trade it in but fraser allow me to keep the bike till end of june before i had to trade it in, lucky was able to sell it for more than trade in :D

Tard is up for sale 7.5k atm, keen to sell it off as don't really need 2 bikes even though its so much fun :(

[EVLO]

Awesome work Kaido!!!! Had a good look at the one at Frasers a couple weeks ago, so many great things on it... I also drooled over that black S, but my heart was set on white... Bet the wait will be agony, will have to get out on some rides when you finally get it.. :D

[Kaido]

the Black S was so nice but original fraser had replace both tyres on it but i saw the rear tyre before they replace it and it definitely look like the owner knew how to ride and i was little worry it had been on the track.

i have been waiting just over a month now and its killing me :( finger cross i get bump up on the list and can get it little earlier i think there are 4-5 people ahead of me

[Halle Terry]

The black 1198S is a seriously gorgeous bike, one of the best colour schemes in my opinion, the red with the bronze frame was also super nice.

Also a big fan of the red 1198SP....and the red 1198...and the white 1198....

[S133LTR]

Far out Kaido, I remember coming past your house with a group from psb so you could be shadowed on a wnlr on the R1 just after you got it towards the end of last year.. Sounds like the bike bug has bitten hard since then!

[RK 86 WA]

Hi guys, been umming and ahhing for a long time about bikes but finally bit the bullet and got my L's as well as picked this little girl up :)

https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/552779_392581440804019_1872739600_n.jpg

Very tidy 2007 vtr250 with 6000km on the clock, slip on exhaust thing and pirelli tires.

Doesn't compare to the majority of highly delicious looking bikes in here already but hey its a start :)

On another note, looking for an instructor at the moment, however the majority seem to be on holidays for the winter :(

[ovaxitd]

congrats on the buy... vtr250 are awsome lil bike.. good commuter.. im tryin to find one for missus.... no fairings to damage ;)

where you located ? maybe go for quiet ride with some crew off here to spot ya. or if your not on psb they have regular cruises and most are happy to have learners.

[RK 86 WA]

have signed up to psb and having a bit of a look around at this stage.

am located in booragoon at the moment and that would be awesome!

[mr_mike]

There is a page on PSB that lists all the instructors in Perth mayb have a look there.

[EVLO]

Might be worth putting up a list of antilag shadows? I'm a year off shadowing RE's so i'm useless to anyone.. :D

[Halle Terry]

I have a feeling I'm able to shadow you Ryan - my bike should be back next week. My part finally left the US this morning.

[Kaido]

can shadow R-E in August :)

[Lozzle]

I can shadow RE this year - October I think.

[RK 86 WA]

There is a page on PSB that lists all the instructors in Perth mayb have a look there.

Hey Mike, ive looked through all the instructors nearby off that list haha.

I have come across a friend who can shadow me, so I think I'll shadow a few times to get the feel for a bike before I take a lesson or two at this stage.

Anyway, will stop cluttering thread with OT talk.

[Azrian]

If i were you i would be taking lessons first before being shadowed.

[mr_mike]

Depends how much u have ridden in the past if u have ridden dirtbikes before then learning to ride on road is more so a case of learning road craft than actually learning to ride and really that only comes with time

[Riggs]

I can shadow if anyone needs.

[Logie]

When using instructors, i can highly recommend Tai and Anthony From Elite Motorcycle Training. Absolute top blokes.

[mr_mike]

spotted these 2 at Roe/Nich lights this avo i had to laugh and take a pic.
The sporty on the left actually has the fuel tank airbrushed in leopard pattern, and the one on the right had that huge add on screen with stereo and speakers. the HD jackets topped it off.

Inherited this from my cousin who decided he'd go to USA for 6-12 months. '07 CBR 600.
Not quite the sexiest bike but very easy to ride, front wheel comes up if full throttle first/2nd.

Can't 'legally' ride it without a shadow just yet (1 month to go) so will take it out more often once I get over that last hurdle.

[Riggs]

Keen for a blat on the next dry weekend we get?

[mr_mike]

done a few little things to my bike recently, tank protector so my belt stops scratching up my tank, A*'s brake resevoir sock also bought some cheap 3d carbon fibre look vinyl of ebay and wrapped a couple small bits. They came out well so i had a crack at the lower fairing, after 3 attempts i finally got it perfect only to find out i didnt have enough wrap left to do the other side :( so now waiting on more to come from ebay. Also put some flush mount LED indictors on the front and some small halogen type ones on the rear, getting rid of the big bunky OEM ones has made a huge diffrence to the look of the bike.

Time for everyone to bow down to the ultimate bike!
Kinlon is the finest bike from china!
But on a serious note dad had this just chilling and only just getting my license it's a bike to ride around on, done 190kms in total and it's something for me to hack around on till I get something better at least

A Eagles supporters bike broke down last night and asked to store his bike at my work until morning to get it home. After seeing the bike and being a Eagles supporter myself I approved ;)

Even though I know nothing about bikes, don't think their would be many of these around. Either way I love the look of it!

Just picked this up on Saturday - 2008 (09 VIN) Speed Triple
Have some Techspec tank grips/protector coming and will do the orange belly cowl & arrow exhausts eventually
Finding so many cool aftermarket bits for it... must close internet!

[mr_mike]

Bought a new front stand yesterday, not bad for $70.
Aftermarket rearsets went on last week, moved pegs up and back and has made a huge diffrence to how the bike turns. Just tips in so much quicker and easier now without having to do big shifts in body weight. bike also coped an aftermarket undertail unit with moulded in LED tail lights.
New fairings are on the way as well, gotta paint the fuel tank to match but will get that sorted soon as they arrive.

[H1GHROLLR]

^^ That site will get me in big financial troubles im thinking.

[jmp]

Very nice - Congrats on the pickup mate.

[H1GHROLLR]

Hmmmm maybe not....... Have not payed for the bike yet and ment to pick up tonight BUT ! just done a revs check (ppsa) and it shows up a collision in January 2011 *sigh* pissed off now :( back to looking i guess , the bike looks immaculate and i went over it for at least an hour no signs of any damage.

[EVLO]

well, if it looks perfect, get it inspected by a good mechanic and tell him its been crash repaired. It might be fine and you could screw the seller down on price ;)

[H1GHROLLR]

i actually took my bike mechanic with me (dirt bike mech but qualified) and he said the same it shows no signs of any damage we even unbolted the fairings and looked at engine/frame, Whats the opinions on buying it still ? cheers EVL

[EVLO]

could have just been fairings/controls replaced, could also be a mistake on the revs check (slight but possible?). Id talk to the owner and tell him what the revs came back with, see if he claims ignorance or what. He'll also know what having that check come back will do to most buyers so may be willing to negotiate with you. Find out which suzuki dealer did the major service he mentions in his ad and call them to discuss.

[H1GHROLLR]

The strange part is the bike was brought by this guy from a suzuki dealer , can they buy and sell something registered on a ppsa register ? last service was a major service and everything checked out 110% also. have spoke to the seller and he is genuinely shocked ! any i belive he was totally unaware and payed for a ppsa check him self to confirm

[WRCjosh]

how much they asking out of curiosity mate

[H1GHROLLR]

12k ono

[mr_mike]

It could of just been a stationary drop which is enough to do a couple grands damage easy to a new bike. Does the check give you any more info or just say a collision?
Check the welds around the headstem and the wheels with a string to see if they are true, lift front up and check steering is smooth and forks don't stick at all.

If all that checks out and price is good I'd go for it.

[EVLO]

12k ono

Not same bike? the pics match the ones you linked.. He's asking $10,490 there

[H1GHROLLR]

No sorry i just stole that piccy off google first pic i posted is of actual bike though

[WRCjosh]

12k a bit rich for that i thought. 11,000 kays, bog standard and 08.

I paid 14 for my 09 cbr with 5k's on it and a full yoshi system.

[EVLO]

ah ok my bad.. I'd say a shop is allowed to sell a repaired bike, it's still buyer beware even at a shop imo or 2nd hand vehicles.. It wouldn't stop me from buying it if it checks out to be good, but considering when you sell it anyone doing a revs will get the same report down the track, i'd be lowballing him on 12k..

[H1GHROLLR]

Ok this is how it went, took a bike mechanic out to the bike again for a 2nd qualified opinion and the bike is sound as ! Must of been a stationary drop and with all credit the owner genuinely didn't no, he wasn't trying to do the dodge and was fair with the pricing, ended up paying 9k cash which I think is a great buy :) soooooo stoked.

[EVLO]

NICE!! 3k off his asking price is an awesome outcome.. Enjoy the new toy :D

[Sampy36]

I'll post a few pics of my 450. Goes hard and I'm really happy with it, if only i had more time to ride it.

[H1GHROLLR]

So after coming home with the gsxr 1000 i brought the other day the misses actually decided that road bikes not just dirt bikes are pretty cool and instantly decided that she wants one, the decision was made at 10pm friday and by saturday morning we had pick up this little 2 pot learner screamer !, she agreed 90% of the standard colour ninja 250's look pretty boring and common so we settled on this special edition with rear seat cowl, its done 4000 k's and is in top nick :) took it for a wrap and its pretty cool and shes in love with it already big time (this means i get to spend money on the gixxer too :D)

Was interesting when it started to rain, backed off a lot when it started to drizzle and was still sliding all over the place so pulled in for that session. Pissed down after that and I didn't have wets so called it a day. Bloke on the carbon R1 that put it into the wall on the esses was right in front of me, bit of a heart stopper that one. He is sore but ok, bike was proper fucked.

[mr_mike]

yeah i just missed the crash but seen the aftermath, heard bike was proper fucked! front end all bent etc.

2009 Hyosung GT650
Pro Taper bars
Screaming Demon twin exhaust

Feels good to be back on a bike again; even if it is a piece of shit.

[mr_mike]

Have a look for Hyofighter on PSB he made an awesome gt650 street fighter.

[Crispymk2]

Might not be to everyones taste but I thought I would share a few photos of my brothers bike build in NZ.

He built this in one month so not a bad effort!

This is similar to what the build is based on:

[GTiR1080]

Just picked this up yesterday. 2005 KTM Superduke 990. Always wanted one of these since they first came out.

[confuzion]

Sex on wheels mate - was split between those and the Speed Triple, hard choice!

[GTiR1080]

Yeh awesome bit of gear to ride to. It regularly likes to protest against gravity which is fun :). Biggest problem with the 05/06 ones is the smaller tank capacity.

[H1GHROLLR]

With new single side yoshi.

Much nicer! could do with some tail tidy love :D

[H1GHROLLR]

Much nicer! could do with some tail tidy love :D

Yeah it had one on i think the last pics i posted showed it with F/E on, But police they love the tail tidy :) it will stay for now.

[mr_mike]

yeah i know the feeling hate the look of all the ADR junk hangin off the back of a bike but you really have to weight up if its worth the hassle to have a FE on there.

[Lozzle]

Thread has just reminded me my FE is held on firmly by an elastic hair tie and duct tape.

Should probably gift the bike a new FE this Xmas.

[mr_mike]

dont see a plaque on the tank, genuine Repsol or just a Repsol paint scheme blade?

[turboknapp]

Genuine Repsol, I have the plaque with the certificate. No way am I leaving that on the bike to be stolen by some tip rat

[kirbo]

Some killer bikes! Here's mine.

2009 Kawasaki Z750 with a few improvements.

Love the Respol and the Z7/1's.. nice work!

[WRCjosh]

you want one of these mate

http://racetaylormade.com/store/index.php?route=product/product&path=18_40_72&product_id=113

best 200 bucks i spent on mine!

[H1GHROLLR]

Repsol looks good.

Why they didnt have black swingarm and black frame on these things is beyond me. Would have improved visuals 110%.

Yeh I have seen these before, not sure how it would go for the po-po and them being sticklers on ADR compliant issues

Looks nice mate.

I'm looking at these, the Z1000's, FZ1000's or Street Triples. So hard to decide...

[WRCjosh]

My desire for a better looking bike, outweighed the fucks i gave about the po po, haha. I understand the hesitation though, they are not a friendly bunch.

[turboknapp]

Yeh, they tried to do me for my exhaust and the levers the day I got it. Nothing like going out of their way to stick people for nice rides, when there are plenty of real dangers out there.

[kirbo]

Looks nice mate.

I'm looking at these, the Z1000's, FZ1000's or Street Triples. So hard to decide...

Cheers man.

From what I've read (not ridden) the street triple is probably the best as a well balanced performer, but I like something a little different. The Z750 is affordable and is a good mean looking naked, second to the Z1000. The FZ1000's look pretty ghastly IMO.

My Z750 is easy to throw around and is nice and simple. I just integrated the rear lights, fender eliminator and IXIL carbon exhaust to clean it up a little and give it a nice note, surprisingly feels more torquey to boot.

[mr_mike]

i almost bought a Z750 only things i dont like about them is the basic (cheap) lookin swing arm and the limited (none) adjustment on the suspension

new bike i picked up 06 Ninja 636. Tips in and turns so easy and its not as sluggish as i expected, once it gets over 11,000rpm it gets a huge surge of power and screams!

[H1GHROLLR]

Nice mate :) where is the r1. Sold ?

[mr_mike]

Nice mate :) where is the r1. Sold ?

Nah still sittin in my garage road gear stripped off from last track day. i'm still 50/50 about selling it. But then again if it sells i can buy mods for the ninja lol.

At the track today i was fidding about with the ninja trying to work out where the rear indicator wires run so i can pull them off for track days when i noticed a black box squeezed down the inside of the tail piece after a bit of prying, bending fingers backwards and some swearing i pulled the black box out to discover its a PC3 unit and its plugged in and working. Stoked about that, previous owner obviously had no idea it was there.
