    I've ridden all of them Zed. Tested a lot of them for $ too.

    Yeah we'd all luv to have your job mate! There is an appreciation that comes from owning a bike long term that you won't get from mere test rides and short affairs, you may think differently...

    To clarify: no it didn't sound big-headed.

    And not every speedster on the road is a sprotsbike!!!!!!!!!

    Ahhh - I have had several similar units to a GSX1400. I call that a 'standard' rather than a sprots bike.

    But Sand and o-ring chains?

    Yeah, get your drift mate. Sand and chains aint a good mix. Bit like a dentist with a Black and Decker drill.
