i've had my arse kicked by one of those, at least i think it was a thou... and when i told the story of an MV f***ing off into the distance on one wheel to the local dealer, they said, oh yeah thats so and so...

Yeah, theres really only one person who that would have been if he was on the back wheel. If it is, yes it is a thou.
Dont know of too many people who can bet him.

[madboy]

i was on the way back from indoor netball one night, no traffic, mway, etc etc, so i was giving the governor a fairly good workout... bloody 400!!

rolled up next to this very sexy looking thing at the lights, saw MV something, thought oh that's nice (oh, i'm so educated in the world of flash bikes). looked at the size of the rear tyre and figured it wasn't a fair fight. did i take off like i would have taken off had he not been there, ie 9/10ths, and then look like a knob when he dicked me, or did i take off like a nana and get home slower?

well, i went with consistency figuring that i was out for my own enjoyment and it was 50/50 whether he was a rider who was up for it, or whether he was just a rider with a good credit rating. green light, i pin it. look in the mirrors and i can't see anything. nothing beside me... okay, must've been the credit rating rider...

then i realised why i couldn't see the headlight, it was pointing skyward as this bike blitzes past me. i was doing the best part of 160 by the time he put the wheel down, and he was way way way up the road so God only knows what sorta speed he was doing.

i wouldn't say i get beaten often, but it's not entirely uncommon - but this was by far and away THE most impressive flyby I've ever seen... EVER.

Wonder if he gives lessons??? :niceone:

[Sparky Bills]

He's been giving me a couple of pointers. (i need them!!)
Yeah theres only one person that would do that on an MV.
I wont say who he is, but i do know him.

[Big Dave]

Nice. For the first time, I'm envious of Sparky folks.

Someone take a picture.

Not what you mean, but pretty funny.

and i still gave it my bike of the year.

They had the 05 ZX10 at KR the week before the MV, and I had a fair blat on both of them and a new CBX1100 the week before that.

At almost double the price it isn't twice the bike, but depending on how much you value the 'horn' factor - it could be close.
perhaps the most 'beautiful' motorcycle i've seen and claimed 166 ponies
schwing!

[Dodgyiti]

Now all I need is for one of you lot to test ride, and crash one. Just fairing damage please, I'm not too fussed with cosmetics.
And then there will be one in my price range :rockon:

Don't tell anyone, but I'm trying to talk Hamish into taking it for a test ride today. He mentioned in passing last night at the KB evening that he might think about taking it for a test ride but that he "couldn't justify spending $40,000 on a bike". I said "why not??"

So we'll see. From all accounts from those who've owned/ridden it, it's a beautiful bike to ride with amazing power.

Watch this space.

[Juan]

:banana: The 750 is brilliant to play on, would like to try the 1000....

Might get one when we get to your fine land.... not much point in having the best biking roads without the best bike to go with them :rockon:

[matthewt]

I rode the MV1000 last week. I agree with SB, what farken weapon. The thing that impressed me was that it just keeps making power. You don't think you're going that fast because the bike does it so easily (I suppose all the big thou's are like that).

Having done 36,000k's on the 750 F4 I can honestly say they are worlds apart in performance.

I'd like one but as a 2nd bike only. Too fast for me to think about commuting or touring on. I worked out that I'd lose my license (again!) before the 1000k service.

[White trash]

Yeah, theres really only one person who that would have been if he was on the back wheel. If it is, yes it is a thou.

*hand up*

I'll give it a shot.

Managed to ditch him on my 600 when he had the 'Blade at the track. And yeah, it would be good to watch.

Hamish test rode it Saturday morning. Said it was lovely to ride, heaps of power, really nice but too expensive.

I have plans to change his mind.....

Matthewt - I might get him to talk with you so you can tell him how much better than the 750 it is. (He might buy a second-hand 750 instead of a new 1000)

Keep this to yourselves though, I don't want Hamish to know I have plans to change his mind....

[matthewt]

Matthewt - I might get him to talk with you so you can tell him how much better than the 750 it is. (He might buy a second-hand 750 instead of a new 1000)

If he rides a 750 after the 1000 he's going to be a bit disappointed. He could probably pick up a mint 750 for 22k-25k but I'd almost say it's not worth it. The bargin a year ago would of been a new 750SR (stock F4 with SPR motor) for around $32k. Bugger!! $4k cheaper than I paid for my F4 in 2001 and it has the SPR motor!!

If I was Hamish (married to Lynda hmmm best not to think to hard about that one!) then I'd wait for a mv1000 to come up on the 2nd hand market in a couple of years. That's what I'll be doing ;)

Has be thought about a Brutale ??? I could sell him mine, then when I get a mv1000 I might even let him ride it :yes:

[speed king]

white trash I dont remember that! in fact I seem to rember you keeping well away from any chase, and so far as wheelstands try 2.5km,s @200kph down south on gsxr1000. not even my bike! yes every one wants a bit of the speed king.

Cheers Speed King ! After 40 yrs trying I'm never gonna be brave enough to do that stuff. Had flatmates in the sixties who were pretty amazing guys, one did the opening scene in the movie "Stone", if you ever saw it ? and that was on a Z1 900 with about 70 hp and about 300kgs !!!!!!!!!!! G. :2thumbsup

Ho ho ho!

I'm with you on the folks in that frame of mind. I'll PM you my cell number as there's actually a couple of other things I wanna chat about.

[RiderInBlack]

Mmm, I'm in love:love: . Lucky for "Roxanne", I'm a poor dude with a big debt, otherwise I'd be cheating on her. No harm in looking but:tugger:

Lucky bloody Hammish. How many wives would be begging you to get a bike like that.
"How many guy have wives like this"
"Not many"
"If any"

...i was doing the best part of 160 by the time he put the wheel down, and he was way way way up the road...

Wonder if he gives lessons???

um HELLLOOOO?

[ALTRON]

I actually prefer the original MV's with the black wheels (or gold) Chrome wheels on sports bike makes them look cheap/tacky. Can you get the new 1000 in different colour variations? I have seen yellow/silver and blue/silver combos on the net.

I haven't seen any of the blue/silver or yellow/silver ones yet. I've got a few MV contacts in the US and Europe and it seems none have been released there yet.

And the new (2003 onwards) MV's dont have crome wheels, they're silver to match the main bodywork colour. I actually like the silver more on my Brutale than the dark wheels my 01 F4 had.

[merv]

To me silver wheels look cool on that bike and I suppose Ago had basic silver aluminium wheels. Black ones just don't show the dirt so much so I guess if I had an MV I'd have to clean it more than twice a year.

[RiderInBlack]

so I guess if I had an MV I'd have to clean it more than twice a year.If I had one, I would probably spend as much time rubbing it down as riding it:love: :calm:
