Very nice indeed! Have ridden an ER6F a few times (same engine) and thought it was great fun. Sensible bike to get back into riding after your incident.

Good luck :)

It says: -

DUNLOP SPORTMAX ROADSMART

The article gives the Dunlop website address, so I typed it in and found them: -

I think my days of hooning are over, quite frankly Ive probably lost the bottle for it and i've had a taste of what can happen. I enjoy riding too much to lose it for good so I'm looking to enjoy it responsibly from here on in.

Yeah rrrrrrrrrright,

I (and probs every peeps on here) remember saying something very very similar aged about 17 when I (we) had my (our) first "serious" :drink::drink::drunken::drunken::puker: hangover.

Give it a couple of months.............................

Re: Just bought a new bike

Seems to be the season for getting a new bike - I should be picking my new one up on saturday :cool: It's a blue 2006 hornet, with 0 miles on the clock. Scary - never bought owt new before ;) The Z1000 is just too much for me and I have no confidence riding it. Hopefully the hornet will give me the grin-factor back :D
