GSX-R's are for riding. Stop taking pictures and ride it like you stole it.

P.S. Nice pics

Very nice ride. Today ( Saturday 27th ) I went to buy a bike with my wife. We got there and she changed her mind. Decided it was to dangerous. Oh well now I can buy another lens.

He would then have to arrest himself. :)

P.S. Nice pics

I agree - nice pictures of a sweet bike.

I'll be out tomorrow getting some Harley shots - they have about 15,000 of them in town this weekend for a rider's association meeting of some sort. Of course, the Harley is a different kind of animal, but a beauty in its own way.

Write myself a ticket :)

Can't wait to see the harley shots.

I'm going to do the shoot again with little sun this time, and change my ISO from 800 to 100 (damn I can't belive I forgot that) and bring my tripod with me.

Very nice shots

Be careful. Don't ride it like you stole it cause then you would most likely wreck it :) ;)

Yes, it's a 05 ZX10. Is that the stock can? I'm glad it doesn't have the one that's on the 1K. Ugly IMO.
So when is the fender eliminator coming?

Sweeeet ride.
Drive slow, shoot fast. Shoot low, they might be riding Shetlands :-)
Ride safe.

Soon, gots to get some money saved up first. Exhaust will probably come first, if not leathers.

Thanks for the comments Skip.

KirkM what bikes do you own?

if not leathers.

Ok seing as everyone is taking a downer on my "Ride it like you stole it" comment let me add, only on track days and only in a full set of leathers.

I am amazed sometimes at peoples priorities. Saw a guy today riding a fireblade and to protect the fairing he had fitted a good set of mushrooms. To protect himself he had shorts, tee shirt and a pair of trainers ??????

Thanks Cosworth, it turned out really well.

I do plan on doing some track events, however I won't be able to use the 750, so I'm looking at maybe a 125 or 250 sportbike to start on and just make it a track only bike.

Currently I wear a Arai RX-7 helmet, Fieldsheer gloves, fieldsheer jacket, over the ankle boots and jeans.

To quote my friend J ... kawi=junk. :cool:

The 10 is a great bike, truly. I hope Kawi took away a lasting impression from their now defunct partnership with Suzuki and can continue to make cutting edge bikes like the 10. Hopefully Suzuki learned how to make a great dirtbike from Kawi.

Still, the K5 beat a lot of bikes in shootouts this year...

My first bike was a 750. Loved it. Took pics of all my bikes like they were gold. Sportbikes look so different in varying lighting and angles. A lot of fun to photograph. Even sitting still you swear you'll get motion blur.

I know how that goes. However this hurricane is putting a damper on me right now :)
