    Re: Change of plans.

    Whilst there is a touch of, maybe justified chest-beating in this thread, there's also an awful lot of pure, unadulterated, plain-old jealousy/envy.
    Back-off fellas, and be honest enough to admit that if you also were fortunate enough to have one of these you'd be grinning like the proverbial Cheshire-cat, and also saying "Looka-moy, looka-moy".

    They have a viscous torque set up that limits rear wheel step outs.
    The later ones can do it but a lot of peeps remove the front diff altogether on the earlier G's.
    Me, I prefer the mind at ease of all wheel drive.
    I do miss burnouts in the VY though
    Got ya, I thought they were generous to rear bias even when trying.

    Good pickup they have come down a bit of late, in oz anyway.

    Agree, he's pulling himself if he thinks he beat a well ridden genuine 1000cc supersport bike, it didn't happen.

    Great car all the same, good luck with it cuzzie bro, enjoy it and keep it in one piece. No matter how much money I had I'd struggle to drop hundreds of thousands on a car, no matter what it was and especially a 60/70's Aussie muscle car.

    Truth be told a good majority of litre bike riders wouldn't know what to do with them, seem to be a dick stroking thing to have one more than being able to ride it.

    Look the man has a lambo, ****ing good on him.

    Hi Seldo, you make a good point mate, although there is certainly no envy or jealousy on my part.............. end of the day I still think "Tool" is the appropriate term (cordless or not ....).

    Just to be clear XSNRGY, it's not A.D.D that I suffer from ...................... it's actually A.D.H.D (Anti D1ck Head Disorder) and I do think I have suffered a relapse here again unfortunately.

    As a result I will now bow to your clearly superior intellect and whit and retire from this discussion a clearly bested and crest fallen man............ I am now in need of those tissues you offered earlier.

    I wasn't necessarily pointing at you FF, and there is a bit each way here too - eg wankers who put a car through their business. I reckon if you have a business and don't put your car through it you need to do your sums again.
    But, I've found it's best not to bite and let these throw-away lines go through to the keeper.
    As my old man used to say - "Son - better to keep your mouth shut and let them think you're a fool, than open it and remove all doubt..."
