My first bike show...

Postby kawadave » Sun Sep 25, 2011 8:25 pm

Yesterday took the turbo and the Z1R to their very 1st bike show....and had a good day. :D

The punters mainly consisted of bad arse bikers,but they did show a lot of interest in both Kwaka's.

Ended up picking up the #1trophy for best Japanese with the Z1R... and runner up for the turbo... :kuda:

Don't knock my turbo lag - it gives your naturally aspirated a chance..
