When Wayne and I went to collect this :- https://steemit.com/vehicles/@africaunited/latest-import-to-sage-street
We saw this!
Barry , who is a Mechanic mostly doing Bikes had this Machine there, it looks like the front of the frame was cut off with an angle grinder.
Barry is a Member of the Hell Razors Bike Club on the East Rand and this Bike was sent to him by one of the Coastal Club Members to see what he could do with it!
Barry is also about to become My Favourite Son-in-Law as on the 19th of this Month he is marrying My Favourite Daughter, Shakira!
This Machine is a Suzuki Hayabusa 1300 , or should I say was?
Ever since they came on the market they have been one of the Fastest Bikes Around,
They easily exceed 300KPH!
The Rider was going up a Mountain pass fairly fast when on a Bend his Front Wheel hit a pile of Cement Powder ,obviously dropped from a truck .
No traction Down he goes sliding towards a Car!
Luckily he had the presence of Mind to kick himself off and away , while the Bike slid into a car.
Rider got away with only cuts and scratches on his one leg!
They are tremendously powerful with a fairly long Wheelbase , making them stable at high speeds.
Maybe not so great on a tight Race Track but very good for Drag Racing!
More Sad Pictures!
This is what they should look and go like!

Had to really look to find one without swearing on ?, as the riders were frankly, shocked at the Performance!
