Tasty looking collection Ian. The 14 mixes with good company.
The red Fiat could do with a polish  :stir:

Only the GSX is a rider, the others are are just for looking at.
As for the weather, the summers are usually pretty good but the winters are not for riding bikes.

That Kwaks nice. I wouldn't mind one of those.

My mate has 4 at the moment. One of the few new bikes I'd have.

Mate has the normal aftermarket pipe / ECU mods and is now playing with some more mods like aftermarket gearing for the supercharger. Another mate Ben makes billet intercoolers for them so that may be on the list too.
I do like them. One of the few bikes that could temp me away from Suzuki's.

I've noticed quite a few guys do these kind of mods. Don't know what kind of power increase they get from them though.
Mine's the 'R' model and I haven't read anything about people squeezing more power out of these. Would probably be pointless anyway as they have enough power and you can't ride them on the road only the track....if you can find a track where you don't exceed the noise limits!

I know theres one H2R that's been road registered and used on the street in the US,
I think there's going to be a 2nd one soon too.

Yes, I followed his story as he was doing the conversion to road legal spes....lights, indicators etc. About 6 months ago I saw a road registered H2R for sale on RSBFS which I presumed was his and he did say he had ordered a 2017 model which he was also going to put on the road. Interesting, he didn't change the exhaust....try getting away with that one in Europe!
