    Na just getting old P,in hindsight maybe all this high tech shits for the best,no doubt soon enough there will be big $ devoted to research resulting in websites with thread titles "remember when we just got on the thing and rode regardless of wind resistance'.

    According to the website, KTMs and BMW GSs are definitely not for me.


    If you can make it on Kiwibiker you can make it anywhere.

    I liked that! I was able to figure out that I need to extend my arms with 25 cm to be able to have the apehangers I want. Or I can sit on a 12cm thick pillow. But it all is dependant on my lean angle and the size of my balls.

    May the bridges I burn light the way.

    according to the site, my legs are too short to ride a Fury which is weird because in reality, they are not too short

    It also show that i am far too short for the BMW I want which I thought might be the case, can't get my feet on the ground (damn you short legs)

    Well I like it. Pity they don't have an M50 on there.

    That site is so up to date it's mind boggling. The Aprilia RSV4 and the Honda Crossrunner, both of which are currently being debuted at the Milan show, are included.

    Then again it doesn't have the Kawasaki Z750 which has been around years or the new Z750R?

    Well all they need is a side image, I don't think they're actual proper measurements from the bikes. Yet.

    And it's because it's an American site. They don't have the Z750 over there among many other bikes.
