    haha, I've done over 4000km since March on mine.. and you think you're bored with yours? just get a really loud exhaust (like mine), should last you a few weeks more

    ..good luck with the bike hunting..

    Shhhhh. We don't want all the retard on spadas. They can stick to the ZXR's and CBR's etc while we have fun knowing that we are superior.
