Lots - but I'm working on it.

I do know a bit about tyres though.

Not exactly the Holy Grail - but a STONKING bike !!

If you've ever ridden a Gixxer 750 you'll have a very rough idea of what it's like - but because it was derived from a race bike (and not a race bike derived from a road bike) the handling & performance was just so much better !!

I can't remember exactly what they cost when new - but they weren't cheap - which is why they're quite rare to see these days - at least non-damaged ones anyway !!

My tattooist has a bike with the R7 lump in it. It's a one-off streetfighter with custom frame and all sorts. Can't remember who built it though, Been in streetfighters.
