GSX-R 30 VERT A4 book 7.27.15 r2.indd 1 7/27/15 11:33 PM TABLE OF CONTENTS CHAPTER 1: 1985: THE FIRST GSX-R “Everything’s different now…” CHAPTER 2: GENERATION GSX-R A spotter’s guide for GSX-Rs through the years CHAPTER 3: SUZUKI’S RACING DNA The race track – the GSX-R’s birthplace GSX-R 30 VERT A4 book 7.27.15 r2.indd 2-3 7/27/15 11:33 PM Revolutionary. It’s a perfect describer of Suzuki’s first-generation GSX-Rs. Because if ever there was a ‘radically new’ motorcycle, or one that was ‘beyond established principles,’ it was Suzuki’s 1985 GSX-R750 – and the GSX-R1100 that followed in ’86. As one motorcycle journalist wrote in 1985, “Sportbikes will soon be divided into two categories: before the GSX-R, and after.” Nicely put. The instant it debuted in late 1984 at Germany’s Cologne show, the GSX-R750 electrified the motorcycle world. Few in attendance, or those who read about the bike in motorcycle magazines in later months, could fully absorb the bike’s radical full-fairing look, its astounding dry weight, or the idea that careful and conservative Suzuki had built – and planned to sell! – what was basically a road racer with lights. It certainly looked the part. With its clip- ons, dual headlights, ultra-lithe aluminum chassis and purposeful, business-only stance, the GSX-R appeared as if it might have rolled into the viewing hall after an hour-long endurance-race session at LeMans or Suzuka. -

This made a change from Taupo Car Club assisting HRC at Taupo HRC meetings. Thanks to all The Motorsport Club personnel who assisted at the event. It was most appreciated by the Taupo Car Club. On Sunday, in association with Barfoot and Thompson, HRC ran a charity event at Hampton Downs and raised over $16,000 for Starship Foundation and Blind Foundation Guide Dogs. Rides were auctioned on Trade Me for rides on Side car motorbikes. Paul Radisich gave rides in the super lap March owned by Glenn Hodges and Stephen Armstrong made the Alan Moffat replica RX7 available for rides. Not only was it great to raise money these worthy causes it exposed new people to our sport. In the afternoon we ran our one of our successful Introduction to Motorsport events. The format for the day is a drivers briefing, then a walk round the track (this had to be skipped this because of a heavy shower) Then a slow drive round the track (follow the leader) for 6 laps to learn the correct lines. -

Ducati Museum
Ducati Museum Past and future, challenges and successes, vision and determination: the Ducati Museum is a journey through the legendary 90-year history of the Company, renowned across the world for its style, performance and the search for perfection. Each product is a work of art. A story told using language composed of shapes and colours, emphasised by delicate, ethereal staging. An intense adventure, in which every bike exhibited becomes a true work of art to be experienced. The new Ducati Museum is characterised by its very modern concept, in which the colour white dominates so as to ensure that the product takes centre stage, with no distractions. Each bike exhibited is a work of art, a story told using a language composed of shapes and colours and emphasised by dedicated installations. In addition, the new Ducati Museum exudes the Ducati brand identity of Style, Sophistication and Performance. With its new look, the Ducati Museum is a journey through legendary Ducati history, to the heart of a company in which every product is conceived, designed and created to provide unique emotions. The new Ducati Museum has an entire area dedicated to some of the most iconic road bikes that have contributed to making the company’s history so great. And it is here that the story of the so-called “production bike” is recounted in its entirety, or rather, the conception and development of the project in very particular technological, economic and social contexts. This leads to the Museum’s new narrative, developed according to three paths: the history of Ducati production bikes and the social and cultural context in which they are conceived; the racing history with exhibits including race bikes and winners’ trophies, and finally the ‘Ducati heroes’, or rather the Ducati riders themselves. -

MEETING the MONSTER Patrick Bodden: I Peer Into the Back of Russ Bigley’S Dingy Gray Chevy Van and Get a Face Full of Carbon-Fiber Two-Stroke Silencers
WORDS: PATRICK BODDEN AND MITCH BOEHM PHOTOGRAPHY: TOM RILES AND CATHERINE BRENNAN >CLASSIC FILE From roach to racer in three easy, fun-filled days. (Ha!)
