    I'm really pissed off!

    Pissed off that winter has come and it's been cold and it's now wet.

    Pissed off that tyres don't seem to last more than 4,000kms on my bike and cost so much.

    Pissed off that summer is now a long way off.

    Pissed of that every weekend I don't work, it's raining and though you can get out on the bike you can't corner hard.

    Pissed off that so many really nice bikes are coming out and you can't afford to upgrade.

    Pissed off that every cop in existence seems to be a biker hater.

    Bloody happy I own a GSX1400 and really love riding her

    only 4,000kms? Dude you need to buy the ones made of rubber. Those sour dough ones aren't up to it.

    LOL, 3500kms on my last rear Michelin Pilot Road 2 and 3900kms on the front Michelin Pilot Power. I need shares in the Michelin factory.

    38-40 rear and 35-36 front. Always check them before every ride mate.

    Yep, cold, wet, humid in helmet etc.

    Stoked I'm >10,000k's up on your tyres, though.
    My last ones looked exactly the same when they failed the warrant as when I purchased the bike, after 13,000k's.
    Some people just can't seem to comprehend that they do not have the right to be unoffended in their lives.

    How the hell do you manage 4,000 k's out of a rear on that thing. I get between 1,000 and 2,000 k's (well, I haven't actually made it to 2,000 k's, it sounds like a myth or an urban legend, only less believable.

    I've had a worst of much less than 1,000k's...

    I ride carefully. With loads of restraint. Can't imagine why my tires dissolve...
    It’s diametrically opposed to the sanitised existence of the Lemmings around me in the Dilbert Cartoon hell I live in; it’s life at full volume, perfect colour with high resolution and 10,000 watts of amplification.
