I like that Arai on the gsx (like the gsx too) and love the slabby. Nice too see one without the solo seat cowel fitted.

They're a fun bunch to ride with, most get out fairly regularly on a Saturday morning but I can't always join them.
The owner of the GSX has a beast of a Kat as well, 1260cc or so with BST carbon wheels, Ohlins, Brembo brakes, etc. His aim is sub 200kg half full of fuel I believe, and I believe he's close already...

An enjoyable morning. Went South for a change. Only a brief 285K's (177 miles) but I missed this mornings rain, had a nice breakfast, enjoyed some fun roads, and was home by 11.30am, just starting to get a bit warm.

Bottom pic looks a nice road "Clear Mountain Road" not far from my house and where I take the Pics with North Pine Dam in the background. (View from the same bit of road) Not really long enough (the best roads never are!) but its my way out of the city To head to either Mt Glorious or Mt Mee, both have good mountain roads.

There's a really good set of bends over the back of Mt Mee, but the cops / council have dropped the speed limit to 60kph (37 mph !!!!) I still have play there but do a drive-by first to check for cops and camera's. Always a bit paranoid about unmarked cars. I was there at 6.30am and had the place to myself. Old pic but this road.

Up hill is still 100 though right? Or have they screwed that too? Those are some of my absolute favourite local twists... haven't been able to get down that side for a while.

Pelicans used to sit along all the lamp posts on the bridge to Redcliffe. It was a bit like Russian Roulette. Eventually someone was going to get crapped on, and when it happened... Wow!!!

This morning
Doesn't look as tranquil as the other pics. Weirdly I can hear that traffic on the bridge.
