So you go fast boys think your new latest model bikes fly?

I am a self confessed lover of the Forgotten Era Bikes, big ballsy over powered, underbraked, average handling, air cooled bikes, bikes you have to ride with some pretty big degree of effort and some bigger degree of rider talent to get the most out of them.

At the Island Classic just held at PI, Aussie racing legend "It's Horn Mate" Robbie Phillis (Suzuki GSX1100, 1980) Peter Guest (Kawasaki Z1R-1000) both got their 26 year old "old school" bikes lapping PI in the 1min 44's with Phillis best of a 1;44.655sec..... not to shabby on bikes with around 160hp, cheese cutter tyres and single piston caliper brakes, flexy frames and twin rear shocks.

I'm with Strika....
FFS I could get around PI on my ol GeePeex750 with stock brakes
non adjustable suspension, steel frame, Ventura rack and 140 section rear tyre in about 1:53 (hand timed)
and I am older than these blokes..to boot
gotta agree Marty
