NZ has produced many world champions, top-level riders and world record holders in many branches of motorcycle sport. Far too many to list here. To say NZ has no history of motorcycling is like saying Melbourne has no history of Australian rules football.

I'm an Aussie....but credit where credit is due. New Zealand has a long motorcycling history to be proud of, and some riders who have done amazing things on the World stage...to name just a few: Burt Munroe, John Britten, Graham Crosby, Aaron Slight, and Andrew Stroud. To say N.Z. has no motorcycling history is simply to demonstrate ones own ignorance of such facts.

@Rick258442 Agreed! Also how come cycleworld is using staples again. Dave wrote an article rushing in the new era of glued bindings?

@purpleGoAhead bar none the most gorgeous supersport, will always be in a class of its own. I was lucky enough to see it in action in Paeroa, Andrew Stroud did a burnout and popped a few wheelies. I recorded it but even though i thought i set it to HD it didn't record in HD, still great footage and uploaded on my channel.
