jeez! Mind you, i can remember trying to get prices for a new speedo casing for my old xjr 400.. they wanted nearly £300 for the plastic shells alone!

are we talking the unit itself or the light/bracket and fairing? If so i know it can add up to triple figures lol

A fair way to go for you but the Super sausage on the A5 in Potterspury, has been ranked top eatery in Northamptonshire

well looks like the new Yamaha triple is infact, an MT-09! AWESOME

bout £300 for the whole headlight isn't it?

have you a pic could be interested for my lad I'll grab a pic tonight if thats ok?

I do a nice ride every couple of weeks, its only about 60 miles but it's all back roads with only 1 ( broken ) speed camera. Actually come to think of it, by the time you come back it would be around the 100 mile mark!

Our dog used to walk in the chicken run with them lol. You wan't to get a couple of bantams. they don't lay as many eggs but there smaller and taste better

Got to agree, some cracking pubs around brockenhurst and lyndhurst. Cheap and very good quality food! Its a good 120-140 miles from me so a little further for Dave and others but a good ride down. I'm sure the speed limit is for everyone for the sake of the animals ( i wouldn't want to hit a horse that's crossing the road in a 20/30!! ) *On Open Forest roads it’s also worth remembering that 40mph is often appropriate provided you slow down and give a wide berth to ponies grazing beside the road.*

no one?

new forest would be ace. Some lovely twisty roads, even taking the direct routes through the new forest is a nice change, albeit 30 odd mph

Same people but the other way round! also a good one lol

Nearly every night I hear this one bike going past the road adjacent to ours, hitting the rev limiter in at least 3 gears. At first I thought, ah its just someone out for a quick blast down the dual carriageway, but it wasn't. A few weeks ago I spotted the bike outside our house after this 'racing' stint he likes to do. Turns out its a cbr 600 which is owned by a 'friend' of the corner shop. The guy rides it in t-shirts and trousers, no gloves and the best bit of all? 2 up with his mate in the same kind of clothes ( hot weather its just shorts and T's or shorts and no T's! ) and not wearing a helmet... I was actually shocked when I seen it. Why is it, people like that don't get caught yet people riding normally in all the proper gear who accidentally do a few miles over the limit get screwed over? On the way home yesterday there were 2 speed camera vans, well when I say vans I mean, 2 cops sitting on a blind corner down a hill were it is easy to creep over the limit by a mile or 2, and the other hiding behind a car at the bottom of another hill pointing up. I don't see a problem with camera vans, its just the fact they are hiding them the best they can to catch as many innocent drivers as they can! // end of little rant!

I nod everyone, and if I'm going past a group of bikes I will wavetill the last one has passed! As for the tossers round here who try to do 100mph in a 30 on there sports bikes wearing shorts and t-shirts, well they just get a middle finger from me... Giving bikers a bad name.

Rofl! at least its sorted aye?

some nice bikes! Miss my old thruxton for the looks and sound, but god was it uncomfortable to ride! ( Plus it still leaked oil like the old classics! )

I gave up counting. Done 200 on the triple over the weekend though!!

nice! but isn't the sport a 172bhp and the cup a 182bhp? ( i know they made plenty of different models over the years with 167, 172, 182 etc )

Had the 2004 model z1000 loved it, just waiting for my triple to be delivered lol. Hopefully its as good as people say! I miss my old zed and thought this would be a good alternative

snitch is a good film thats worth going to see

When are the pink stripes going on
