  6. “Interesting”? Aka “utterly terrifying”?

    Just looking at that damp road in combo with 184 BHP and Neolithic suspension and tyre technology is making me wince.

    I’ve never had a turbo’d bike but I had a 280ZX 2 seater with a Janspeed kit of the same era and you basically applied for horsepower in writing and it would then arrive sometime in the following few seconds, all at once, often in the middle of a corner.

    I have some old Triumphs as well from my father that I have kept. I get them serviced every year but they haven’t really moved.

    I used to ride 25,000 miles across London yearly so it’s nice to have toys and not have to use them.

    the picture attached is a still from a video, which got over 5 million views online......which may or may not have been me ;-) lol. I loved my Rizla reps.

  8. Yes, it was certainly an on/off switch at about 5000 revs, not really any lag once above that and the noise was intoxicating with the straight through stubby pipe once is was on boost :blush:

  9. You should photoshop that pic so the policeman is holding up one of those score cards the judges use when marking ice skating and gymnastics routines.

  15. Yes, well YR5 - it pre dates the RD350 but is very similar.
    Not sure what's been done to the engine as I bought it at Bonham's but it's quicker on pick up than my mates 350LC so far quicker than @Robarano 's with his bulk on it o_O
    I enjoy riding it more than any of the others!
    All I've done is add a 2 stroke oil magazine and a bit of fettling as it was freshly built when I bought it.

    Is the magazine hidden behind those bottles of shampoo or whatever?
