Performance Bikes (Kwakka Edition)

Post by aardvark »

Just been to the news agents and picked myself up a copy of the latest (well, latest here, and not the airmail version) Performance Bikes.

You can't miss it, it's green, and has "Go Kawasaki" on the cover. It has a Kawasaki special in it, and it's about 40 pages. Even has a GPz900 as the centrefold....

YAY!!!!!

Go and get it.

They deliberately put the winning scratchies in the issues they send overseas. Ive won a holiday and a Ducati 996 in those bloody things, when I won the 996 I couldnt claim it because I didnt know any british citizens but I sent the one that had the holiday to a mates uncle in england.

Absolute thing of beauty the GPZ900R.
They can be found pretty cheap, I was thinking of buying one and doing a cool retro thing with it, widen and lengthen the swingarm, USD forks, possibly bigger engine with NoS but same painjob and stuff, could be cool.

they think the Gpz750 Turbo belongs here???
blah..piece of crud....should be on the Worst ever list
and
I still think the Z1 (very closely followed by the Gpz900)
is #1....
in bike folklore it is as important as the CB750....
it helped define a change in bikes..that we are still seeing today...

cheers
GOTTA LUV the 12R!!
