hmmm... wonder what trackday insurance cover would cost?

There's proof on KB that you can ride with one arm, but without an arm and a leg? im not so sure.

ohh that bike seems magic magic magic in a savage ear-splitting kind of way...
it has an extra 50+hp than mine... I'd love mine to be 10kg lighter at the top of the bike- it rides like a feather with 1/2 a tank of gas or lower..but feels a bit heavier with a full tank. buells have that part sorted aye:rolleyes:

I must say that rr looks to be total pefection. total.:devil2:

The Ducati certainly has some style be honest I tend to like bikes that push the extremes in styling and yet maintain the paramteres of what a bike should look like. Those two do both.

The other thing, and it's a me thing as far as I know,I look at a bike and instantly get an image. Julian Clary came to mind in another thread but this bike brings forth an image of Sancho Panza, Don Quixote's squire in La Mancha by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra

Yup. Veddy veddy nice.

Funnily enough, I know a bloke that's got one coming soon. And if I'm very VERY well behaved and stop chucking his GSXR down the road he may even be prepared to listen to begging and let me have a couple'a laps on it.

Interestingly, I'm pretty sure it's elegible for NZ Superbike rules aint it? Hmmmmm........

So how do you gas it up - ask the pump jockey to hold it up, while you fill her up?
