Exclamation Repsol's Get Together In BrisVegas

Hi Guys

Just sharing some picks of our ride today, and what we belive to be, the first group shot of Aussie forum members bikes together, yes I know there are only 2........gotta start somehwere.

Hooked up with RepsolBlade07 for a squirt today, weather was a bit crappy but any ride is a good day

Thanks for the ride BJ, nice to meet you.

HH, good looking, quick witted and a mind reader........your a talented bloke mate

I was thinking that we should try and arrange something....but what, when, where

What does come to mind is the GP this year......what do you reckon

I'm thinking we should start by:
1) gauging who is interested, - I'm sure some of the boys from OS might wanna join us
2) Launch active campaign here in Aus to get more sign ups to the site, what have we got +/- 550 repsols (05+07) in the country and 5 of us on the site........the other 545 must be

Let me know what you think......of course welcome comments from all as always.....

Good deal guys. Hope you guys can put something together and post up some pics.

Hopefully in August the N.C. guys/gals and surrounding area can meet up for a ride up to the AMA B.K. Nat's. I'm looking forward to it.

Thanks for the ride mate!
A little bit to wet to make it really interesting but some good roads though!
Agree we should get together a few more Repsols, where are they?
I know there are a few around Brisbane, guess I'll just have to catch them the next time i see them so more people can join the clan..
+1 for a meet at the GP.

i am thinking we should organise a trackday or 2 for the aussie contingent...
maybe head to the island cause you dont have to take your bike there as you can hire trackers...

Guess we all know what is on your mind!!



I'd love to go track my Repsol...in theory.....reality would probably show me fanging it around a corner hotter than a super nova eating a face full of gravel!! That part doesnt bother me.....its the aftermath of what has happened to my beautiful beautiful Repsol.....suddenly not so beautiful. I love my Repsol.....

Good to see some of the fellow Aussies getting together for a spin and we do certainly need more of an Aussie presence in the Forum. Unfortunately however there are bugger all Repsols in SA.....think I've only ever seen 2 others here and there always is the posibilty that was the same one I saw twice!! lol Think they must all be up Marc's and freddies way!

Thats why i'm going to do the school even though I've been riding for years and years , i just think it would benefit my cornering skills and make me a better rider on the road, and lets face it we all at some stage fang it on the road , well I believe that the track is a safer place to do it . Taking it easy and slowly building on it,the last thing I wan't to do Is wad up my Repsol

At the Superbikes at the Island I saw 1, 05 riding around the outskirts of the track, and 1 07 on the way home that I passed couldn't talk to either and that was out of a sheit load of bikes. But I couldn't believe how many people stopped to drool as they walked passed mine .We should all feel privileged to own such a good looking bike

Yeah im with ya on that, I've found I have a neverending supply of street cred on the Repsol. When I'm riding about cars speed up and slow down along side me to look the bike over and just riding past pedestrians.....their eyes are glued to me! Well its either the bike or my good looks...one or the other!! lol Plus just other bikers on their R1's or GSXRs.....bet they wish they could have a Repsol too!!

bouncing off the rev limiter? ohh you mean 1st gear powerups?
pffttt

when you can do a standup & click it thru the gears come back & tell us about it...

wheelies are bad & if you are doing them on a public road i hope the cops confiscate your bike
