Admiration and respect. A great event, and a well told story. I could almost see you on the bike! Very impressed, well done :-)

Just Spotted this... Bwaha ha ha ha ha ha


I think you`ll find that if you take a CX500 and remove the top-box (aerodynamics)junk the
engine crash bars to improve the power to weight ratio you will be left with a bike that is
easily capable of the double-ton.
In fact you`ll have a job keeping the front wheel down in the first three gears if
youre a bit clumsy with the throttle.
And they sound awesome at 5000rpm with an incorrectly adjusted cam-chain. :)

LOL :D

Yeah, those maggots do sound good with the balancer pipe rusted through... until the mechanical waterseal gives up and empties the contents of the rad into the engine :o
 
Well done Spike,
Good write up, may be next time with a blower on, the 200mph will be yours. RESPECT
 
Take care mate and good luck. ;)
Oops,sorry just realised I'm a bit late but well done. :)

Another very quick glance as you approach the chequers and the needle's just passing the 200 mark
Could`nt you have managed a photo of the speedo at this point-a camera-phone would have done.
Make a great avatar...

Here's a quick tank mounted video from one of the bikes...a ZX12r from a while back.

It provides an idea of how it all feels at least :D

Superb video Sp!ke,shame it ended when it did-looks like he was just about to launch a monster mono-wheel. :)
Cant wait to get back on my Cx :o
