Hey Grandad, how's the thumbprint?

When I reach your vintage and have gained the riding experience you've got then I'd wager it would be a fair contest!!

And I'd assume that when I get to that age I'll also need a soft old Direblade to cosset my chalfonts.

So you can't even keep up with a grandad on a soft old direblade through open sweeping corners.

Haha - Age and experience ain't the be all and end all - ask Cycosis how long he has been riding for.

It just makes me laugh - all the homos claiming they have the bestest bike in the world and rubbish everything else, but can't ride it for shit. Good on ya - as long as you're a legend in your own mind.

I couldn't give a fuck if you were on your second pint by the time I get to the pub, as long as I get there and they haven't closed or run out of beer.

Open sweeping corners have never been my cup of tea, never will be.

And the only place I'm a legend is in the Shetland Islands. I'm happy with that.

Oh, and the bedroom.

Just like I couldn't give a fuck about your extra few horses or few less kg's.

Shit, we're almost in agreement.

Hey Quasi, good to hear you are enjoying your bike.

BUT' I heard they are a bit slow in stock form.

Here you go mate:
http://www.muzzys.com/ZX10/ZX10_Turbo/index.html

500hp and 250 foot lbs of torque. That'll help you to keep up with a GSX1400.

Hang on, I'll just get my coat.
