    I particularly like looking at my bike when it is clean. At the moment it is covered in insects and it will get a good clean up tomorrow.

    Ever notice that anyone slower than you is an idiot, but anyone going faster is a maniac?

    I know what you mean Zed and Im sure alot of people will agree (even if the don't want to)
    To every man upon this earth
    Death cometh sooner or late
    And how can a man die better
    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods

    I admire what the Bandit does. Especially seeing it's an 'old man's bike'.

    I hate to point it out shag but there seems to be a few bits missing from your 'best bike' - and a shit load of cable-ties and sticky tape holding the rest together!!

    MMmmmmmmm

    How could I not?? I don't just admire her, I stroke her. When I get to work in the morning I just sit on her as my colleagues pull into the carpark and wave at me. Eventually I get off (the bike!) and drag myself to my desk to do some work, as I regularly minimise all windows to stare at my wallpaper. Then I'll go for a smoke and stand in the carpark swooning and resisting the urge to fuck off for a quick blast. I do this about 4 times a day. When it's time to go home I gear up and head down to the carpark where I start her up and savour the burble from that exhaust. And as I head home I take my time throught the slow bits and open her up at every gap and opportunity just to hear that airbox roar.

    Fuck I love my bike, and at least she'll never be ridden for money like the whore ex girlfriend! (Really!!) And if any fucker hurts her I've got the biggest knife you've ever seen. Honest, it's fuckin huge.

    I don't admire the bike so much as the enjoyment I get from riding...

    It gives me time with the kids, and time alone... it's great escapism.

    Of course it also allows me to leave the cage dwelling dickheads in my wake any time it suits...

    Yes I admire my bike every time I see her! Shes beautiful and I'm so impressed. I think its more a case of first love/new toy syndrome and just the excitement of finally having one! Although its my first I will hang on to her for a while I think.
    I'm pretty unfaithful though and like to perv and admire other bikes too!

    I wouldn't bother mate, they're no cheaper to run, give you less pleasure, more pain and only want to play on their terms. Bike's are much better, and they wipe clean!
