Original launch propaganda.

knee sliders...????robracer wrote:not a single knee slider in sight
anyone notice the bike barely gets tilted thru corners

as one who had a GeePeeZee7fiddy turbo there is good reason for that
it doesn't like corners, skinny tyres shit brakes and a bicycle frame see to that
astonishing quick a straight line (10.7 ¼ mile) the 750 turbo
was a bike full of contradictions. Most here today would have a heart attcak
riding one of these ol dungers

cheers

GOTTA LUV the 12R!!

Bahhh there's nothing wrong with skinny tyres, shitty brakes and old style frames....my old dunger has them all and it's a hoot to ride. I reckon most riders would have a ball riding one of these old dungers and wonder what all the fuss was about
