I'm always open mouthed when I'm really concentrating and in the zone on a fast twisty road.

I remember when I last did it on the sv. On the dunkeld to blairgowrie road. It's super twisty and fast. I was riding really well that day and really concentrating. After the twisty bit I woooooo'd It's so satisfying when you get a road just right

You were singing because there were flies a-spattering? Does that mean you'd be in uncontrollable hysterics if you hit anything larger?


I grin like a right muppet every time YC takes me on the moortop roads back home, so bumpy and fun

I was out on the tzr today and just as I came in to the powerband at 8k rpm I went over a wee bump and the bike wheelied. LOVE this bike
I just want to red line it every gear, every time I go out. And so does the bike! If I'm cruising just below the powerband it pulls me in to it. So much fun

So, when was the last time you shouted wooooooooooooo!!!!!!!! or similar
And then it ate it's powervalves with a cloud of smoke and the sounds of mechanical carnage as pieces of engine whip round the motor...

I'm not bitter that I don't have a big 2smoke on the road... not at all...

TW4T!

Last week when I finally got my confidence back and had just spanked a very twisty dual carriageway and saw the sunny side of 170 with a mate on his 1050 triumph disappearing behind me.

Although its not big and its not clever and it never really happened

To be honest it happens quite often, like breezing past the open topped (awesome sounding) aston martin on sunday morning. Biking just adds life
