Can't be that bad, must say a v-twin would be a tempting bike, but more like a mille is my thinking ;)
sooooooo noisy
Sounds good :D

And that's a problem? :confused:
Although ETs 'storm would be better if he ditched those bars for clipons ;)
Noisy is a problem if operating a machine however is a bonus if pasionate about riding a motorcycle. Too much or the wrong sort of noise is bad in both cases. However I go back to my first point big V-twins are fab.

Never again. Yuck yuck yuck.
I'd rather drive a proper tractor.

Unfortunately due to a mishap when cleaning the bike both my baffles fell out and I have been unable to find the right tool to get them back in (Honest). Bike is currently a bit on the loud side. Perhaps not quite in the Mille, storm league but would scare the pants off any Zed rider as I blatted past :)
I'm fairly sure the induction makes more noise than the cans at anything over about 8k anyway.

Hehe, nope not drunk, but he was going to cycle home from the Anchor down the towpath. We persuaded him to give the "I wonder where that path goes" route a miss :D
Is his pushbike really really clean with black carbon spokey dokeys?

yeah he was on face book, I though his survival was down to lightning ninja reflexes, but he tells me it was more like blind luck ;).
Someone get him an engine for the dam thing and tell him to stick to the road :D

What ever crawled up your bottom smelly.
The day went without a hitch, although there was a true moment of comedy when the ring got stuck on a finger. I refrained from the obvious....
It was insanely hot, and lots and lots of red wine was drunk.
Not sure I'd want to go to one every weekend though.

Already seen it. This is the 1st time I've been on the forum for ages, and that was the 1st thread that caught my eye on the front page. :p
Excuses:
I don't have an e-bay account or Paypal. :( :p
It'll be sooo embarrassing turning up to the same places as you with 57 plate white RRs.
I want a KTM X-Bow.
Mmm shiny bike :D
Hey Law, no worries, I will happily bid for you, failing that they don't live far away so i'm sure cash is accepted.
Also that KTM car is a bit more expensive

What has happened to you Dave? You've gone from owning two very respectable bikes to wanting two of the worst bikes in the history of human existance (no, really). :p To each their own though, I used to think wanting a Suzuki Marauder would be 'cool'. Thank god I bought a CG back then.
