Most truck/trailer rental companies like U-Haul offer bespoke motorcycle trailers for a cheap price, like 20$/day. Could be easier that way.

Omar ... got flatbed trailer with a ramp used to haul boat, snow blower etc, is 4 x 7 Snowbear... off on three week vacation ...

 

BUMP FOR PICTURES

 

very cool
ride safely!

 

Can't wait to see her Omar.

 

I assume you found a trailer? PM me if you still need one.

 

the clutch and brake fluid look good.... u should look at risers for the clipons....

Mind if I ask how much that was new? and how much approx. u got it for?

I feel an italian bike in my future (some day, not sure when)

P

 

I get a sore back just looking at that monster.

 

In the world of sport bikes, this is actually very comfortable and rides like a GT. Just the clutch weighs a tonne! Compared to Gixxers, this is like driving a Caddy.

No worries Omar... You can dial in the Olins to a sweet track set up.

 

just looking at it I got a speeding ticket!

 

Keep me posted on that. I'm getting married in May, so April may be difficult, but July could work...

 

The RSV1000R is the outgoing model (140ish HP stock..superchargers and bigbore kits available ). New the base model would run you 14G's and the Factory model (very high spec parts) would be maybe 19G's if there are dealers who still have em in stock (envy rides has a gorgeous white one with ohlins front forks). Compare this to when it was the current model at 18G's and 24G's respectivley, you can buy them around 9-11G's all day long making them a bargain for the quality.

The current model is the RSV4 and it's...well...godly. 180ish HP...much lighter weight (its like a literbike that thinks its a 600), and other general awsomeness. The current model is priced at 18G's and 24G's for the factory. they havn't hit dealer floors in canada yet but are winning awards for bike of the year everywhere else.


I got the showa front forks . Up until 2006 only the factory got Ohlines. From 2006 on, even the R model got front ohlines forks. Oh well, i'm sure these will be more than adequate for an FNG around the track.

Thanks to everyone who offered to help with transport! She's resting in my buddy's shop (read: garage with lots of tools, beer and car mags) awaiting the spring. Resisting the urge to mod this one to the nines is very very hard. Frankly clean_me isn't making it any easier either (stop sending me links to carbon addons!)

Will do. I've got your number, will give you a call as we nail down dates and plan the route. Congrats on the upcomming wedding man! (what's the bride's maid potential lookin' like? We mite have to have a rennlist wedding crashers party. Clive, you up for wingman?)

 

..oh noo .. you need someone far braver and with way more stamina than i ... aka ( i want to see the pics of the hotties first )

 

damn...i should have know you would say that.
I've seen topgun 1000 times. Iceman was the worst of the wingpersons.
