coz being so fast makes them a bit fickle.
Mine behaved after the rebuild did about 1000 miles in a month but it's died again now.

No, i'm happy to sacrifice the reliability of a blue one, for the speed of a yellow one.

When I landed in a field in November at least 20 cagers slowed down to watch me picking up bits of fairing, mirrors, etc off the road, then pushing my bike across the field, not one of them stopped. As I finally got my bike through the famers gate and back on the road, one cager and his passenger slowed down and had a bloody good laugh at the fact I'd gone through a barbed wire fence and into a field at 50mph! Eventually a van stopped to help clean up and see if I was hurt, surprise surprise, the guy was a biker.

when i came off a biker came to help me pick up the bike, i saw him again at loomies cafe and started chatting to him not relising it was him. The he asked me about the crash and said it was him, i now go riding with him on often.

Its something cage drivers wouldnt understand ( thats non biking cage drivers)
