Anybody notice how much
goes on over in the 1000 forum, it seems like the moment anything bad is said about the 1000 everybody ahs their panties in a buch and is up in arms yelling about journalist, marketing, dealers...
whats gonna happen next year if some other bike is crowned liter bike King? Makes me glad I have a 10 year old bike
, that when put back together will ahve more than 140rwhp and weigh less than 430lbs
if I had a 1000 I would have no time to ride it because I would have to read every single motorcyle rag to make sure all of the journalist still hailed my 1k as king shit

gimme a fucking break quit crying and ride your fucking bike.

That's right!

I do not care what is written about my old bike - I enjoy riding it - that's all.

Never had a new bike - don't want to spend too much money if I can get a good used one, like my gixxer.
No headaches about getting stolen or scratches.
Riding is what counts!


Greetz!

Great one Lemmy69.
I think this is what separates the real bikers from the image boys
. My 86 1100 turns more heads that the hundreds of 02 1000s
. The day I get upset about what some ignorant journalist writes about my bike is the day someone must shoot me.

Sucks to be a wannabe. Dude, my 750 can scare the crap out of me by full throttle in third. Or when the wheel comes up at the right rpm just by a turn of the throttle.

If you get the above rush. Who gives a shit what kinda scooter you ride.

Thanks Dontilgon, and Dave your bike looks great. My 92 GSXR1100
is a 1186cc, 20lbs of boost running, 265hp, 220+ mph gixxer. I love the Hahn turbo, the bike rides like a stocker, until you roll on the throttle, then it just accelerates like a raped ape. The only drawback, it that it is non intercooled, that would put me in the 300hp range. She has 1 42mm mikuni flatslide carb. Also an electric fuel pump to supply fuel under boost. The only problem I have had has been my fault, ordered the wrong coils .7 ohms, and took out a diode in the factory CDI, I have since ordered tthe correct 3 ohm coils and the Dyna2000 to replace the stock CDI box. Here is the left side pic:

We were riding our bikes when most of these image boys were still sucking their mother’s tits. So I am 35 what the hell I still have a lot of fun.

My brother and I both ride 86 1100s and we both agree that the new bikes are nice but wouldn't trade ours for one.
