Thanks Scott but they have the details incorrect after a rider change, Jim ran the 196.3 on the 600
Kim was having trouble from a old hand injury and the extremely heavy clutch on that bike and lost too much distance getting it on boost  ,  Jim on the other hand slipped the hell out of it and could make full use of the distance
and i see the same happened last yr with both Kim and Jim getting over 200mph but not been credited in the 200mph listing because they were rider change on the busa

Are your hatches battened ?

Kim and Greg are a fantastic team, their bikes are a lot faster than they are pretty. That's a compliment btw.

Live in Australia 'bout 2/3rds the way up the east coast 10 miles out of a city called Mackay, we are right in "Cyclone Alley" here,, Greg and Kim live about 2000 miles away, down the bottom  :)

Although we have never met, we have bumped shoulders a number of times at the BUB events, when, over the years since 07 I have been crewing for Richard Assen, running my own bike and helping Greg, Kim, Jim and Bones,,,  Green ZX12 Kawasaki naked 1350 FIM record holder,,

Planing to be at next years BMST, will come over an say "g'day" toya  :D

Thanks Kerry
dont forget Jim , he prefers it naked and about 20mph slower because of that
 :lol:  we try and apply a 10 foot rule,  they should look ok from 10 feet away , but lately flat out making 50 foot work
Good bodywork is in the works, and hard to get keen on spending time or money on stuff we will be removing soon  (should have been on last yr )

I think you would know Roo if you saw him
