Kawasaki Sportsbike Riders Club - Australia - Online Forum

Here is a short video - taken on one of our local roads just around the corner from Anarchy Road.......

Camera bike is a 2006 Daytona 675 Triumph - fitted with Eibach suspension, Two Brother Racing 'zorst, TuneBoy map, and very short gearing - the bloody thing is a rocket out of corners !! The pilot is a slightly older gentlman who can pedal along quite well thankyou very much ......the headlight you can see behind belongs to an R6.

Enjoy !! (watch the High Quality version...just give it a minute's head start before 'Play'..... )

675 v ZX12R

Think the twelve rider needs a coupla new globes ??

The Trumpie certainly 'put's in'!!

Now that is a nice road .. .good vid cheers

Great vid Gos
As for lights of a R6 I didn't see 1 after 2 corners or so

take ya hand off the brake Gos.................

didn't notice a knee down anywhere
you just working off that coffee and donut..?

gotta say a 675 appears no slouch
but me think another 2 off the front might help

...if using the throttle doesn't


cheers

- If the 12's lights are on - the tape is a rollin' !! (camera powered by headlight circuit.....otherwise yes, always off)

The little trumpy is a rocket. The guy who owns it does the best stand-up wheelies I have seen 'in the flesh'.......one of them earlier on this ride was over 1/2 a km long !! . Nice bloke to boot. It is a good road, one of our local favourites....

He's there......in the distance..... (not by the very end though - I think a couple of those treadlie riders baulked him.)

Yeah . my now departed mate never dragged a knee on purpose (He'd normally lift his inner foot coz there was no room between the peg and the road anymore!!)

And that was with the adjustable rearsets!!

Bloody pushies would have frightened the crap outa me!! (watched again a few times LOL)

And not a KR in sight

#1 Go the 12R
#2 I'm so going on that road one day
#3 Respect the centreline!
#4 Go the 12R

2 things to say,

-Nice work Gos

but... Lucky the camera wasnt on a 10

good stuff gos!!!... nice smooth bends and nice smooth riding... that yami was left behind pretty quick

Nice one Gos, love your work mate

yeah those heavy 12's dont stop as good as the lightweight thouroughbred ZX10r

You sure.?
According to Mick the 10's don't stop as good as those lardy zrx's..

btw, I can't get the vid to play... I keep getting this.

.!!

maybe its the motorcross bars and seating position that gives the better "off road performance"
