Here's a 10 minute clip of the road. The guy riding it seems unfamiliar with it, but it'll give you an idea.

As a matter of fact, two of the 3 ZX10s that were on this ride with us, are now in pretty rough shape thanks to two more trips through this road

We went through it again yesterday at a very slow pace since some of our Cruiser friend's were tagging along. My bike is currently sans Chain so I was running on Charity. My friend Al took his 12 and gave the old 11 to me for the day. I find it really weird to ride other people's bikes but he insisted. Made for a very good time. Who would have thought the 11 would pull harder than my Bandit?

How did you like the 11?

It was awesome. Even 2up with my GF all day it was still nice and comfy (The Corbin seat may have played a role in that). We broke away from the cruisers a few times and it was a blast to open up. 10 years old and still pulled hard and smooth as hell. Even when we were taking it easy with the cruisers, the bottom end was great. It's nice not having to make it scream to get some power out of it. I'm a big fan of Torque

Well, the green is an 04 because the R in ZX-10R on the tail section is gold. They were red in 05. And I would venture to guess the orange is also an 04 but hard to tell from its angle in the picture.

This guy with the ZX9 decided he should start his own Tree of shame....

I was going to ask if this was 507 in Ontario but I'm guessing not.

The 507 is in my backyard. Redrider is in New Brunswick

Never been on it, but some friends have and I was to go the following year... but it never happened. Would still like to get up there. I hear it is really nice.

The green one is an 05 and I'm almost positive that the orange one is too. Could be a Canadian thing.
