Sorry to bring up this old thread but reading johns report kinda brought back memories. I went avimore nocking on 3 years ago with me dad (the hog rider) and me misus on the back o the xtr. Was a great trip and evryone (minis the odd 1 here n there) was friendly and nice. Sorry to hear you had such a bad time mate!
I had ccc pipes on me r at the time! Was the only jap bike that could out do the hogs noise wise!
