Show and Tell: What bike do you ride??

[sheeks84]

I also have a 2008 crf450x, so happy with this bike. Got full exhaust system, rejetted, high flow airfilter, opened up airbox a bit, quickshot, programmed vortex ignition system with high and low power mode switch. Awesome / fun bike. My weekends just got better.

Good to see someone else is enjoying their 450X as much as i am. The Vortex Igntion is next on my hit list, and an O/S front rotor.

The Vortex ignition is great. Obviously make sure you get it programmed. Costs about $100. Are your bars higher then the tag bars?? I was interested in getting bar risers and/or different bars. Your 450 looks great. Mine looks plain as now as I got aftermarket plastics and put the new ones away. This makes allowance for my average riding..lol. Enjoy your bike.

Im running Pro Taper Windham bend. They are a bit higher, and have less sweep aswell. The Standard bars used to give me bad arm pump, but the new bars are heaps more comfortable.
get yourself some Black Excel rims, best looks mod going around i reckon.

first roady was 2000 R1, then 01 VTR SP1, 05 Kwaka Z1000, 07 GSXR1000, currently riding a harley night rod special and a crf motard tho..

I'm between bikes now but I shed a tear when my last bike was sold.

'01 GSX1300R Hayabusa, opened std mufflers, airbox mods, welded clutch (removes back torque limiter), full re-tune on dyno (175 RWHP, up from 159 std), polished rims. I'd dearly love another but I fear I wouldn't live long.



Oh and my previous rides in order, newest first, YZF-1000F, GPZ-900R, VF750F, GPZ-600R, VF400, GPZ-250, PE-175.

shite there are some nice bikes on here!

[Gosling1]

Better throw up some pictures of my favourite bikes.....

Here is the MFP12. Anyone familiar with Mad Max will understand that reference......its a 2005 Kawasaki ZX12R, with about 165hp at the back wheel. Heaps of mods, Power Commander, 16t front sprocket, timing retard eliminator, full Yoshi exhaust with custom muffler, rearset footpegs......the list is pretty long. Its a great bike, good for about 1'50" at the Creek on standard road tyres and with a fat old b@st@rd on board.....





This is one of my favourite bikes in the stable - a 1980 Z1000H. It was the worlds first mass-produced fuel-injected motorcycle. I have owned this bike for the majority of its life......don't be fooled by the old-style z900 sidecover badges.....this is actually an EFI 1105cc sleeper.....



there are heaps more bikes in the stable (otherwise known as the 4th dimension ) I could rattle on all day about them.

Main reason for joining this site is to tyry and get as much info as I can about the LS1 - I have never owned a Holden with an LS1, but will be installing an LS1 into a Series III XJ Jaguar over the next few months.....

Its great to see a car forum that has a motorcycle sub-section !!

I run a small workshop from home that services and tunes old jap bikes - mainly stuff from the late 60's through to 1985. If I can help anyone here with info about these older jap bikes, just sing out...

cheers

have made a few mods since this pic was taken, went from a ninja 1000 to this and i wouldnt go back.

[Slyder]

Ducati, why, is there another brand?

[Boganspeed]

I have three bikes.
This one is a K1 GSXR1000 Streetfighter.
Too many mods to list but my favourite things on this are the superbike spec PFM front brake discs and calipers.
This bike has wheelied to 200kmh (see video) in it's previous guise
YouTube - Rocket does a wheelie

This photo taken at the Northam bike show last year, literally straight from the work bench, to the show.



Another one is this 07 Harley Roadking, pretty much stock except the usual air cleaner, exhuast, tune up mods. This is a great bike.
This pic was taken on the road between Collie and Bridgetown on one of my weekend solo runs I like to take every now and then.



This one is my Turbo, Intercooled '92 GSXR1216 Streetfighter.
This runs forged WISECO Busa pistons, plus lots of other stuff.
This bike will literally wheelstand in any gear with it's stock wheelbase. I have had this bike picking up the front wheel at 230kph at the Kwinana dragstrip in top cog. A complete animal, the engine is just about to be refitted after a quick strip to check it over and fix some leaky gaskets.
This pic was taken at a photo shoot for Rapid bike magazine a while back.





None of these bikes look as shiny as these pics anymore.
Especially the green one which has been hammered in all sorts of weather, down the drags, on the backroads, everywhere.
