tell you the truth, forgot all about the tiger!

eeds to be something that will be relatively comfy on the back for the misses, as well as fun for me to use on my own. Don't think a tuono is going to be comfy for her!

yeah i think the reach from seat to bars might be a issue for me. I've got long arms but short in the body! one of the main reasons for looking at another bike for next year is, the so called no claims protection with MCE is a load of bullsh*t. Put it simply, my DRZ was stolen, they said i had protected no claims yet my insurance has gone through the roof. The bmw is something stupid like a group 17 to insure. Basically, its cost not a lot under a grand to insure my bikes thanks to MCE! Anyway, back to the point. I do like the VFR's, my dad had one for a few months and i rode it more than him, cracking bike, plenty of power and comfy. So far on my list of bikes to try early next year are VFR 800 Vtec & new model ZZR1400 Sprint GT ( maybe its smoother than the s-triple? ) V-strom 1000 FZ8

anyone ridden or owned a blackbird?

could be worth a look. Will add it to the list to test

going to give the big naked muscle bikes a miss, had a few and tried the suzuki and kawasaki alternatives. my neck doesn't get on with them as the stretch from seat to bar is a bit too much for me.

Put it simply, I've had nothing but shit luck with the last 3-4 bikes I've bought ( XJR is a exception ) so this sort of time next year I will be looking for a different bike. What bikes would you lot recommend and why? doesn't matter if its a sports bike, a tourer, a cruiser etc etc.

the end of the vid *american gods of bike life* oh she must mean the bigger bunch of idiots who are known for punching car windows in, ripping people out of their cars, shooting people etc etc... IF they wore the proper gear and didn't ride like idiots on public roads they might get a bit more respect.

nailed it!

Chad's coming out of the closet

Ahhh so close! Not the 350, they came out after this one.

you was right with harley, but do you know the model? it was a common one in the late 80's

I personally wouldn't touch mcafee. Microsoft security essentials works 100 times better

lol!! I've racked up 3000 miles on the MT since i've owned it The bmw has just sat in the garage doing nothing. This little thing is the most fun i've had on two wheels. The flames and bangs are a added bonus as well Got to enjoy the weather while we still can aye! Didn't you have locking nuts on the spindle? last lot i had were made from skateboard wheels, threaded bar and two locking nuts.

Which one? :P

nope.

nope

lets crank it up a few notches

Had one of these, very smooth ( but are a parallel twin ) 270* crank make it ride like a VERY smooth v-twin. Brakes are incredible for the bike ( infact over kill on so many levels ). Bit tall if your a short ass though

Honda Transalp 650. Aka XL650V

All the best

Boom nailed it!

Well if i'm correct, its a suzuki ( going by the tokico caliper and mudguard shape )

Thats easy! i'll give someone else a go for a few days lol

tbf, vista is a tw*t in its own right lol
