Pretty much kiwi TK. I wish it were there all the time. But it, among other testosterone fueled things are on display right now as we are having a men's conference this weekend.

That's a pretty sweet idea. I was thinking about starting a riding small group for the summer. But just having a larger event would be nice too.
We are getting ready to have a "bike build-off" today. We have 1000 new bicycles still in the boxes. Everybody is divided up into teams. Whoever builds their bikes first and can ride them, wins. All the bikes will be given to needy kids throughout the local cities.

Came across during my week of trawling.

Maybe, makes the brand new $50k NZD CBX look like not a bad deal after all.

Hmmm, how bad is it that I desperately want to FIGHTER that bike out? How many purists would kill me?


I'd worry about that motor sitting for years. I did see a cb750 motor with an 836 kit start right up though after sitting for 30 years... so what do I know. I hope he fogged the motor.


So... RC30 vs CBX... what to do, what to do, what to do...

CBX
















VS.




RC30










- 'nuff said.


Not the greatest quality, but the noise... THE NOISE!

Personally, I'd go for the CBX option any day of the week. It has the instantly recognizable Wow factor.

The RC30?, very much a bike for the aficionado.

I'll take the Wow factor thanks.
