Just a few random pics from the bike show that I went to today - enjoy! :D

Look at the paint job on this Bandit 1200 - definitely not understated!!

Another Z1000 =P~ (I quite like these bikes, in case you couldn't tell... :wink: ). The photo doesn't really do it justice, the paint was amazing - black with purple metallic flakes 8)

The new Derbi Mulhacen - only about 20 of these have been made so far apparently - They look weird, but I like 'em :lol: In fact I had a word with the dealer and I'm hopfully going to have a test-ride :riding:

Spondon GSX-R - The seat / rear looks like a Ducati - lovely!

The Spondon's owner was a member of the NADB and had some hand-controls added to the bike, looks like this would be the gear-shifting thingummybob (showing my mechanical ignorance :oops: ). Must be quite a lively bike too judging by that steering damper!

A ZZR1400 - I never realise just how big these bikes are - bloody huge! :lol:

The Xtreme Display team in action - these guys were amazing! Sadly this was the only pic that wasn't blurry as hell cos I'm a crap photographer! :lol:

:lol: No, it actually stayed dry while I was there, we left at about 2-ish, and the heavens opened once I was sat at home with a cold beer! Definitely a good day :D

Hmm, they were ok at about 8.30 last night - I guess the image hosting must be down. :?

I'll try & move them somewhere else...
