This is my last ride.
Kawasaki ZX14. Full Two brothers exhaust system and Juice box fuel management system , 190 HP at back wheel.
Awesome blast to ride.

Good eye @Mathias just something a little different. Had a reverse lobed cam made up for it.

Good idea for a point of difference. Years ago a fella I know reversed the head on his Triumph Thunderbird 650 for the same reason, it was running E3134 cams front & rear so no issue there but it got very hot with no air cooling.

Harley Davidson Bogata COLUMBIA.....just thought I’d post this.Spend a lot of time down this way,The owner,who I’ve met on several occasion,ps,bloody nice bloke.Woukdnt let me take photos of inside,but the interesting wasn’t the bikes,pretty much a standard HD setup,it was the security....lol.... cameras,steel gates,a,arms ,all the standard security stuff,.....but it was the two security blokes he has,packing 10 mm sub machine guns,and sidearms.....24/7 protection.....HDs down this way are for the rich,famous and connected,and are worth stealing.....not sure whether I felt safer,or more concerned about getting caught in the crossfire......the building itself like a brick shithouse....and the girls he has working for him.......penthouse stuff for sure

Here's mine. Its about to go back on the road having been in storage for 18 months. I have owned it for 26 years having purchased it in 1991. It had 5k on the odometer then and it has 17k on it now...but its on its second lap now so it has definitely seena few places.....



Where does everyone take theirs for a WOF in chch? The place I used to use no longer does them. Apparently they have trouble keeping staff with Motor bike licenses...... I need a WOF so I get start using it again.

What was the point of this 'discussion'? Bikes differ. Cruisers are silly in my opinion. That's my say only. There really is no reason to choose either. I've seen brilliant riding on both. It's all about the bloke behind the bars.

No-ones claiming their bike to be the best, just the best fit for their particular need.
Personally I eenjoy seeing all types, 2 stroke / 4 stroke, dirt, sport, cruisers.
I like seeing the huge variations on a 2 wheeled powered vehicle.
