I was nearly in tears and biting the keyboard to this video, I've been off my baby now for about 2 years and all but forgotten what its like to ride on the very limit. This with the music brings it back hard. I used to work at Fowlers UK and yes the 6's n 1000's are lovely and undeniably awsum I am climbing the walls until my Cagiva is back together. No seat, no headlight, just an 80kg track bike, diddly 39hp StanStephens engine and the most expensive rubber this side of a Durex factory...
2nd time ive come back just to watch that chap at the end. it's just striking how quickly he turns at the end after watching all the other riders the whole movie.
Great video. Listen to that old zxr 400 sing. Now, I'm no expert, but this video shows you just how much fun a zxr 400 can be. Your lines are great and you get on the power nice and early. The big bikes pull can pull a few bike lengths on the straights, but they have no chance everywhere else. Looked like fun!
i owned a green and black kr1s when i lived in london 25yrs ago unreal how fast it was 140mph in a heart beat .iv it was better than all the 250s and 400s at the time.the rsv aprilia came along and the rest is history.1 of if not the greatest 2 stroke 250s ever built
I would have liked to have seen more of the guy at the end. I dont know if it was a ducati or what ? but he sure showed everyone how to corner. There is a lot more available from your machines but its having the confidence and skill and trust in the machine.
Fair play the fella on the classic the 7r by the looks of it showed you boys the way. Went past like a knife through butter. His bike is from the 60s and has about 40 bhp.
thanks for the great vid mate. it brought back good memories of me racing my KR1S against my Brothers CBR 6. He could get away from me on the straight bits of road, but on the twisty bits i could out turn him, out brake him and out perform him...lol I own a ZX6R now but i miss the noise of a KR1S exhaust in the power band.
@waddozxr Thanks for the info. Definitely wowed when he passed on the left just after the mountain. Nice riding from you and the KR1S by the way. Good going!
What is completely INSANE is at the end of this clip at 5:57 you can see a guy on an old 50's 60's bike run through these guys like exlax! He is knifing through them on 50 year old technology!!!!!!!!!!
haha e waz quick but dat waz a classic ducati 350 duno if u herd it but all of a sudden there waz a v-twin in da back ground n he appeared still look at da bikes e waz beatin

The guy who came screaming past at the very end had some serious talent!

A lot bigger more expensive stuff going round made to look ordinary by smaller machines!!! Love it!!
10 out of 10,FANTASTIC VID!!

Haha! Nice to see those skinny wheels doing what they were built for. Going up the inside!
LoL 5:58..Move aside ladies, bad ass coming through :D
that geez at the ends a beast. cant beleive thats an old v twin. thought 125 for sure. thats how a decent rider does it.
@waddozxr Thanks for the info. Definitely wowed when he passed on the left just after the mountain.
Nice riding from you and the KR1S by the way. Good going!
Awsome riding...great video!
always dreamt of getting a KR-1S but got a TZR250 instead - I was more then happy escpecially my m8 on his RGV250 - we used to rip it up everywhere.
nice video... thinking of buying a zxr400 this weekend
Good style. See you at caddy this year.
Really liked the footage...always more exciting to watch when the track is fairly packed with riders. Trust this was the fast group?
awesome vid

Great vid & great riding. 250 2 strokes vs 400s are always a good matchup, but I'm surprised the ZXR was so much quicker on the straight.
Классно! Мне понравилось как он из низов выбирался!
EXCELENTE.............
superB dewd! nice job.

Sorry for coming in on the tail end guys. Now I see the earlier posts about Glen English on a 1962 Matchless G50
The old twin was fantastic. Nice ride by all, though. You have to respect the old two strokes, too,....don't you.
just realised theres more tracks than just this, i was referring to the first one. not so sure on others sorry
Good fun!
was that bill swallow on the old single show you how to do hall bends at the end?
crap that ol twinner was killing them!
Nice
nice vid, man; but the track seems a little bit dangerous...
@Syke1988 haha ! Same for me :) :) hoping it won't turn to a mechanical nightmare tho ...
It's Sandstorm by Finnish guy Darude.
