I got the original mag. It's PB's Mark Forsyth crapping himself on a FZR600. The photo wasn't staged.
Keep on keepin' on.

Thats the one that I posted up several months back.
It was concluded at the time that it is indeed a 600....
The pics been on my workshop wall for the past decade...hence the poor quality of the scan
and yes it WAS Mark Forsythe from PB
still a cracking picture tho'

Actually they just get the ones that are setup properly if you've ever ridden a press bike then a showroom offering you'll notice the difference...they don't get lighter frames
Brakes??? I thought thats what pedestrians were for!

Interesting that because I know the press launch bikes are well fettled I wonder if its still done as I've had a sneaky ride on one before
