I like Z1000s, I can see one of them in my future.

Maybe.

Yum.

Everytime I see these sexy unfaired bikes I like them more and more. I used to be a fully faired lad all the way. Now I want a Speed Triple, or one of these


When I get back from travelling I'm going to get myself a project bike to work on. And it will be mean

Ha ha, my mate (who, for years had to have a newer car than me) changed his new car (less than a year old, bought brand new) "coeincedentally" two months after I got my bike. In his own words "I can't have you having a bike newer than my car".

The funny thing is, he got the same car, but with silver radiator venting, rather than black and a blue interior instead of gray.

Keeping up with the Joneses, eh?

My brother is just like that, about 2-3 weeks after I passed my test and got the SV, I went round to his house for one reason or another and he had a brand new Vespa 125
I was like 'where did this idea come from?' He said it was to 'commute' (1.2 miles) to work! Which just happened to be the same reason I got my bike!

The funniest (well I thought it was funny) part was he was showing me his bike when I asked him what he kept in his glove box, he proudly told that thats where he kept the 'tool kit' which he promptly pull out. It was a little smaller than the Suzy effort but had an elastic band around it, he was non too impressed when I pointed out to him that the tool kit was realy good as they had supplied him with a spare 'drive belt' for when it snaps Oh how I laughed
