....to boxhill

and it was quite busy, as busy as I've seen it in recent months. Here's a pick of some of the bikes there:

Me posing with my beloved; note recently added taller screen

Really tidy FZ1S. Really liked this bike;

My dream everyday bike (for this week at least):

A laverda, t'was tidy, thats for sure

Ohhhh nom nom nom MV Augusta

Two RG500's; the one on the right was pretty much original, the one on the left was not. And the guy dropped it when pulling away...I think he spun up on something greasy:

Ohhhh nom nom nom Duke 1098. Had an odd-sounding clutch...not the rattle, thats normal. kinda...screamy..........he might wanna get that looked at...

A rank of GSX1400 supertankers:

Check out the exhausts (laser i think)

A patriotic RSV:

Cheers,

Matt

good pics there bud like the two rg's very cool.

oh yea, forgot to point out...that MV had an extra mirror on the end of the handlebar. I guess the standard mirrors are crap

The 1098's clutch does sound screamy. Well the one I heard did too so I assume it is normal.

oi...who said you could borrow my screen? and where did you put the rubber trim that always falls off halfway down a motorway

Im Indoors says you don't see a pair of RG's every day..nice

ah, i see, i guess thats ok then. maybe because the plates were cold? it only screamed when he slipped the clutch pulling away, disengaged it rattled (normal) and fully engaged there was just the rumble of the termi's
