Robin

My ears were bleeding after you followed me through Stockport the other week!!!!

Did a bikey-go-round with a couple of pals around Leek / Buxton a couple of weeks back. Got 20 mins on a new (but 2005 spec) Blade and same time on a 53 new shape Milie with no baffles in it's Akra's. Mine sounded disappointing from another bike though. Time for some cans.

haha! Yeah i like it that way! I think your quote was 'it sounds like there's a lancaster bomber following me'
You did have a volume control though as you could vanish in to the distance in an instant!

Get two of my CCC cans! I dread to think how loud your bike would be

CCC or fuel. Both cheap enough on ebay.

Shouldn't you be revising or sleeping?

finished working about half an hour ago, exams lurking again...bleh. But all over by next friday, then i'll live on the cat n fiddle!

CCC guys are brilliant. The cans on ebay are so cheap compared to the prices they normally sell for. If you can wait go to a motorshow, they normally have a stall and will sell you any can for ebay prices. For instance mine normally £375, at the show £200!

Got my Scorpion you saw on the 6 1/2 at the show last year after beating him down to a virtual match with the Fuel guys.

Anyway... Back to work.

My house mate wants me to take him/my bike down Sainsbury's carpark. He's got a moped. He's 22.

Guess what my answer always is?

I have let one the girls in my house sit on the bike & rev the engine. Seemed to enjoy it too much.

My son will help me rebuild the CG125 I have before he gets a go on anything!

I dont think I have the heart to let anyone else ride my bike. I might let my dad, but then he crashed the scooter because he wasnt concentrating...
