heard a story about pre production GSX-R 1K bikes delivered to Australia for the journo release at Philip Island

Talked to the guy who's job it was to pick up the 15 bikes from PI, and deliver them to the crusher in Melbourne, he was accompanied by a suzuki rep of courese

He just backed up the truck and rolled them straight into the crusher

oh the pain, the pain of it all
