If only I had had a better photographer ... :D

These were taken a while back, it is me after going over 'the mountain' at Cadders (the pictures are actually taken about a year apart, so on two different visits/cameras! (note one has black, one has silver rear wheel ;)) ... where the shots were taken it looks like you could only just get a fag paper under the rear tyre, but it is still proof of full air!! :D

The are a bit rubbish, but also cool, so I thought I'd share anyhow!! :)

So you must have been pulling the move in super slow-mo?

This is a cool angle too – I am trying to work out what I would have looked like at a better camera angle/mid flight?? I’d love to know how I look at full flight!! Are they cool or are they jut long, but little/shallow wimpy ones … !??! :D

Yeah the red bull #65 one is mega!! :notworthy:

I do feel short changed by my shots as they are obviously just before landing, not max altitude where they would have looked cooler!! :cry: Especially as looking at the barrier (and how far that is from the crest) I have gone a fair ways too, so presumably there was some altitude there at some point ... but lets face it – it isn’t going to be anywhere near as rude air as the #65 (Johnny Rae) shot!! :D

Johnny Ray looks like he's building up to doing it no hands.

Just yesterday I had an ebay impetuous moment and nearly bought (put a bid on) this ... :oops:

But decided if I get one I'll get a 250 ... or one of the 4-strokes!! 8)

Ha ha. Looks like fun.

I was in the Ducati dealership looking at there Hypermotard there. Jaysus. Hooligan central.

I am slightly embarrassed to say, for the last while now, all I have wanted is one of these though:

Ahh yes. The Brutale 910. (It actually reminds me of a Honda Hornet... funnily enough.)

See, the problem with that bike is a) the heinously ugly headlight, and b) the price. They is pricey.
I was sitting on one, and they are nice, very well sprung feeling. I didnt actually drive it, but it sounds well.

Nah. If I was going to go Italian flash, I would get a Tuono.
There is something very impolite about that bike.

Although I was driving my mates newish Duc S4s there. When you roll on with that machine, the howl it makes over 6000rpm is pretty scary.


I dunno. I dont know why I want that Buell so much.
I do want it quite a lot though.

.uggo bikes..

I'd sooner have a sports (race replica?) bike over any of those ... I know it isn't overly 'individual' ... but I struggle to get excited about them ...

I'd have one of these though 8) (i.e. if you were paying for it AND the upkeep/repair bill!! :D)

Ah yeah, horses for courses and all that.
If I got a 1098, it would just laugh at me.
No matter what I did, it would be there, having a bit of a snigger. mumblemumble I've seen faster Piaggo scooters mumble.
Sorry?
Nothing.
Damn right nothing. Now, clutch in, first firmly engaged, carefully clutch out...
AH FOR FU..
SHUT UP.

That makes 2 of us Phil. I have an inexplicable draw to the Buell Lightning long. Hey it's a V twin and will provide a beauty and the beast gathering sat next to the 848 in my garage.:cool:

It'd be sacrilege/madness to actually ride it ... I'd just have it in my living room and try and seduce it!! :D
