  1. Had my King 7 and half years, was out on it today,
    but.... a 16.5ltr tank is bloody annoying!

    Jumped on the GSX14 and took off North,
    first time I stopped was Childers, 190 miles away!
    Had I been on the King I'd have had a sore arse and
    been detouring long ago trying to find fuel.

    Shame. Such a brilliant fun bike with a killer motor
    but it isn't suited to the long hauls.

    Still wont sell it though... Laughing


  2. Not been to Tassie but its on my to do list.
    My Mrs has been there about 5 times and loves it.

    Both the local Hayabusa and GSX1400 clubs have done rides down there.
    It's a fair hike from Qld though!
    It's about a 1,100 MILES to drive to Melbourne to catch the ferry over!
    (And that not a very interesting ride either)

    An interesting read about Tassie is the book by Paul Carter
    "Ride like Hell and you'll get there" quite entertaining.

  3. Sat nav works OK for servo's
    I use my Navman for it all the time.

    Downside is it may find the nearest which is OK if your desperate
    but not ideal for planning a route waaaay ahead.

    I use a map (paper or web) to plan my ideal route
    then a quick google search on some of the larger towns or villages
    with their name + petrol / service station normal
    tells me if there's one there.

    You should try it out here Dave,
    theres a few places that they find the body's weeks later!

  4. Guy on another forum got an invite to the Superchaged H2 Kwak press day / test ride.
    he's ridden anything worth riding as a comparison.
    he just posted this....

    "Sorry folks, getting on a plane shortly to come home. Its been a hectic 36 hours, but the very very short version is
    The pre launch hype was justified
    It really does handle
    It goes like f**k
    It sounds amazing
    People who were expecting a lardy one trick pony are going to have to dismiss it on looks now.
    Price isnt even an argument as its the same as a panigale s."
