Gday Finplan and welcome to the klub.
What type of Gixxer mate?
Dont worry about the shit your goin to get.... you get used to it. Then it slows down.
I started here on a GSXR1000 K3 then bought an 03 ZX9r.
But I STILL have my 2000 GSXR 600 track bike.... that kicks ass.
Im thinking of upgrading to a k3 1000 track bike at the end of the year....just to keep the 10s in line.

my ride is a GSXR 750 1993...old like me....plan to do it up and my son will race it in the new era class in pcra or East coast.
I was going to do it myself but after last ride day have chickened out...cant match the speed for too long...self preservation kicks in.....anyway the plan was to race this year but east coast is off till 09....also having trouble getting race glass for the bike...if anyone knows where i can get a set let me know...i have tried heaps of manufacturers.
