Did you have to book a reservation for the tour?
@whoisjn Жыл бұрын
Yes, if you google mazda museum reservations, it'll pop up. I think they only have Japanese guided tours at the moment though. But with the travel ban being lifted, english tours should be back. I heard Mazda recently renovated, should be a nicer experience!

Hey chinese, please sell this bike to someone non chinese and buy yamasaki for you put a lot of leds xenons and stipes on it and LOVE your bike! This is not bike for asian people, you simply can't understand this bike. In the time when this bike was produced you and your family lived in huts and slept on the ground, so this bike is miles away from you culture. Sell it and make good for yourself!

First time driving RHD, in a foreign country where we couldnt read the signs, on summer tires during the typhoon...I think we did fairly well. Especially since I was jet-lagged and been in Japan (first time ever) for less than 24 hours

I have the engine in my garage new!! anyone interested , was produced in various models from 2002 to 2004. The new Testastretta engine shared many similarities with the previous Desmoquattro engine in the 996, although it was completely new from the crankshaft up. Wikipedia Power: 123 hp (92 kW) @ 9,750 rpm

Headlights and tail lights an afterthought? Not sure what you mean by that, the fact that they have to have them for road use? The design of them is excellent, as a 748 owner I think I can attest to that.
@whoisjn7 жыл бұрын
Timothy Harper I can see where you're coming from, but compared to the rest of the bikes design, the combination of curves at certain angles, but at other angles, it becomes sharp and purposeful. simple but elegant. maybe I wanted it to blend a bit more to the design theory? I'm probably asking too much of a 98-04 limitations Lol. I can see how it evolved into the 1199 bikes though, now that's a good looking set of lights.
@pauldavies51997 жыл бұрын
Timothy Harper While the taillights do look dated, I still think they look good for this bike and I really love the twin headlights. This and the Honda VTR SP-1/2 are the best looking bikes (even to this day) ever made imho

Hi Dennis, this was a custom one done by a local fabricator that moved out of state and have no from of contact. But I've found shops that sell similar looking guards on amazon using" Ducati 998 CF chain guard " in the search box. Hope it helps!
