Jealous of Delboys British bikes website
Dazza (Dels son, and my brother) wanted some of his
bikes featured, so here they are in no particular order
starting with Dazzas Kawasaki ZX10, a powerful motorcycle
for someone to play with. And as with all dazzas bikes it
certainly got played with. This was his second ZX10, and
about his 4th Kawasaki. |
 |
This was Dazzas first Kawasaki ZX10, and was bought
already painted in the Rizla team racing colours. The
picture doesn't do it justice as it really was a
beautiful bike (just don't tell him I said so) |
 |
this is my favourite of all the motorcycles Dazza has
owned. It is a Kawasaki GPZ 1100 with an awful lot of
work done to the engine. When Dazza bought it it was a
non runner, but with a little coaxing and some scary
attempts at bump starting it we eventually got it running.
The reason it was so difficult was the extensive mods to
the engine, which included a Mr. Turbo kit, fed through a
Harley Davidson carburettor exiting through the shortest
exhaust pipe I have seen on a road going bike. It sounded
awesome, and after the turbo was set this bike had the
grunt to back up the noise. Originally in Blue when Daz
acquired it he had it all resprayed this great looking
yellow which looked even better with all the polished
aluminium and stainless on the bike. |
 |
Another custom bike, this time a Suzuki GS 1000 with
some nice mods to enhance the looks of it. Another
powerful beast, and another roaring exhaust, but this one
was just part of a deal to secure the Thunderace dazza
wanted (see below). I wanted this bike, but didn't have
the cash available at the time, so it was sold, another
missed opportunity. |
 |
Dazzas latest pride and joy is his Yamaha Thunderace.
A bit of a change from the usual Kawasaki fare, maybe a
trip to his youth, reminiscing about his Yamaha days of
FS1E's and RD 125's and 350's ? |
 |
Another of dazzas early motorcycles, his Kawasaki GPZ900
or one of them as he had a succession of them over the
years. They always saw plenty of use as he went riding
every weekend he could back then. Of course he's growing
older now and can't always get out |
 |
Dazzas latest bike, he has owned this Kawasaki ZZR 1100 for a while now, and loves this powerful and quick machine. He takes it drag racing at run what you brung meetings at Santa Pod raceway, where it runs the 1/4 mile in 11.3 seconds and hopes to somehow get it into the high ten second bracket. See some videos of the ZZR in action on the drag strip below. |
