First part was in reference to travelling at warp speed, second part was a question to graciepants about when here bike's being transporte up to the nether regions of yorkshire.

Happy to be of service.

Oh i see, thanks dave.

Paul, do you now have the speed bug? I reckon you will buy a busa in a couple of years...

Does the 1000 feel much heavier than the 650?

Nice write up, Gracie. Good to see someone being positive about improving their riding skills.

Crowtree aren't taking on any new orders, the owners have decided to retire

I'd recommend Scott Leathers or Hideout. Unfortunately you can't get MJK Leathers in this country any more - they'd be my first choice every time... in fact they have been, twice.

It's a very nice Honda - strangely sensible choice. Should go forever.

(And plus1 - pre-racetrackspecial R6s aren't tall - lower than K1-3 GSXRs and g/j ZX6s)

So there.

I tried to kill a cbr once, wasn't happening. The gearboxes in particular are indestructible.
