Then I checked my trusty Honda manual and it explained all (page 69).

Apparently roof-painting is urban slang for, shall well say, inserting sausage into mouth and 'painting' the roof. Presumably white ........

Isn't it on page 68? Page 69 is mutual roof painting.

Thank goodness they do not make a shaft drive bike. They just cannot be wheelied.

Wanna bet ? I've had a BMW front wheel off the ground - and at 130 klicks ..

I own a Honda, and an Aprilia..... that makes me Masochistic-curious?

But in my defense (as if). the Honda is a smoker , so it's not a real honda, and the Aprilia has a Rotax motor, so it is reliable (for an italian).

Naaa ... just took a Paris Dakar (R100GS PD Original) with the lower off road gearing . and a quick flick of the throttle to full power ...

It scared the hell out of me as I was pulling out to pass a car at around 130 klicks .. and the bike wasn't even pointing straight down the road ... still going out when the front end lifted ... pointing straight at a fence on the right hand side of the road ... Got it back down real quick ...

Shafties don't wheelie. The Earth tilts underneath them.

**onearmedbandit** · 13th October 2010, 23:39

It's true. When BMW where designing the new S1000RR they were stuck for a long time over whether to add wheelie control or just make it shaft driven.

Anyway, back to the original question. I wasn't there, and those that where there deny they were, but the whole Honda's are for fags thing goes back to the first, and last, Kiwi Biker Band Camp.
