Restrictions in Victoria

Other way round AFAIK. The Australian delivered one didn't have to comply with all of Japan's exhaust emission restrictions, although it's probably only something as simple as the carby slides. Other than that, the Jap one was actually to a higher spec (better brakes, suspension etc). Power wise, there's not meant to be much between them.

Garfield - Whatcha doing with the Sprint when you've finished it? I was looking for a bit of an incomplete project bike to finish off and upgrade to. <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s -->

 

well...prolly sell it...well...will sell it as even though i like the sound of the triple..but i just think the sprint is a little large for me.. mite have to see if triumph plan on releasing that 680triple next yr..if so then thats more to my liking....lol


boz - yeah i was thinkin of asking them to change the pipes and wheels over to the black bike..mite look a bit more decent!

If you do that, then you'll have to wander/meander on back over to my neck of the woods. LOL

 

ah...prolly need to visit exup brotherhood once i get the yzf...i have browsed the site but havent signed up...too many logins to remeber...lol

dave

 

I try to use the same login on every forum I'm a member of. Cuts down on trying to remember stuff...

 

well...if i was usin the comp at home then its fine.
but since i dont have internet at home anymore i have to punch in my username and login everytime...and for the odd forum my username is already taken up! oh n i hate those forums that dont let u change the original password they send out!

oh well...as for the yzf...depending if i can hold on to next yr on the 250 then i mite not get it..im thinking of this:

That my friend, is SICK!!!!

A YZF or that? Ummm... I really don't think there is a choice. Just in parts availibility.


I'd trade aligence for that.

 

If I were to buy a new bike in the next year I would choose an fz1... I like them! Not common, great performance, and relatively comfortable. Must say though - not 100% sure about the 2006 model exhaust though I think I like it... (see <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.yamaha-motor.com/sport/products/modelhome/7/0/home.aspx">http://www.yamaha-motor.com/sport/produ ... /home.aspx</a><!-- m --> or <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=94401">http://www.advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=94401</a><!-- m --> (better pics at the second link). Probabyl the same price as the daytona too...

 

Garfield - your ogling the same bike i am... although i'm being realistic and assuming that i can't afford the 675 for the time being. Perhaps in another 1 or 2 upgrades (or when the insurance gets past that damn under-25-male limitation ).

The new FZ1 exhaust is horrible! I'd be wanting to trade in that fugly pipe for the 2005 model one.

 

ahahahahahaah ahehehehe muahahahah kakakakakakak

that sums it up....

don't do it dude, if sumthing does happen, like a cager hits you, you will be in the wrong by default.... And that would suck, just stick it out.
