Thats strange. I saw this episode on TV years ago, and I knew the Suzuki won, but i thought he let the guy keep his bike!! Not sure how or where i got crossed up on that...but Suzuki's are fast bikes. Before i saw the 2 races ran, i knew that 1200cc Zook would win that race... although the Harley is a 1300cc. That inline 4 is a BEAST...i bought a brand new 1985 Kawasaki Ninja 900S, and although i put pipe, performance Electronics, and performance intake...i wouldn't have bet pink slips on it'd beat the 1100... ALTHOUGH...my Ninja 900 was supposed to be the quickest bike on the street at that time.
The Harley guy was embarrassing to watch. The umbrella girl, the over confidence. The Harley shop really blew smoke up his a## for him to risk that much money. Those GS’s would run low 10’s in the quarter mile all day long. He blames the mechanic for a slipping clutch that makes the v rod “bog down” 😂 He knew the v rod wasn’t quick enough but pressed on anyway.
The v rod is worth so much more than an old Suzuki.. not really fair to put up an expensive unit against a 17hundred dollarish metric bike. No offends to the sweet Suzuki. Im just talking decimals and dollars
To be fair it's not really a fair fight to put a bike that was considered the fastest production motorcycle in the world against a Harley Davidson in the first place. Harley owner should have brought something that could actually stand a chance instead of bringing in a chrome driveway ornament
It’s a 2003 vrod, 2008+ w/ the 1250 would’ve been a different story. And if you think you can get a GS1100e is decent condition for cheap, you don’t know bikes.
@@moleman6143 oh I know bikes. Different markets have different pricing. Where I live only a small amount of people ride and that bike would sell cheap. Maybe where you live people “know what they got” when buying or selling metric bikes.
Probably the most fair racing I've ever seen on this show!
suzuki, that 1100 was/is a beast of a bike, i think the pilot was a big part too
This what pinks should have been.
Heads up racing with no input from 50 extra dudes yelling and screaming and crying after every race.
Classic Pinks with less drama, more racing!
Lol... thanks buddy!
KING Zuk!!!! except no substitute!!!!!
My friend in Texas had a few gs gsr models from back then
Very good showdown
Super high output Japan
That was just weird!
Was Paul also in an episode of the reality show Monster House?

Neither of those bikes are running 10s stock… not a single bike on this episode
Stock that bikes 12.50 on a good day not low 10s 😂 clown
Ha e a go harley will NEVER be the fastest!

my gen1 VMAX would walk all over both of those bikes...the h.d. vrod is a total joke...
hell yeah or a V65
This vrod doesn’t have the 1250.
I wouldn't race after I seen his bike not the same value
It was a blue collar guy and his richazz buddy that always tries to buy wins in everything. Money means nothing to the dude on the Harley
@@54raceman not buying wins he just has nicer things and he probably didn’t mind his buddy “winning” this bike lol
That Zuk was a beast when it came out in the 80s, and still was one at the time of this taping
