Johnboy Walton - You are an angry man!! If you weren't 10 times bigger than me, why I'd come over there and pop you one on the mouth.

Explain what? The link to TM auction? Or playing on the motorway?

that bandit looks awsome but the only thing im not so keen on is the mileage. 60000 is getting a bit high isnt it?

im 17. could you expain what you said on the previous page about redding me? if that language is not accepted then tell me. i belong to a car forum where people dont care about the language used so sorry about that guys.

**MSTRS:Me** · 1st October 2006, 15:27

Depends on how it's been cared for etc....most 250's need reconning around the 50k mark so has probably been done. Only posted it for interest's sake. For what you want to spend you will be limited to an overpriced CBRR or ZXR (unless you are very lucky) and how many do you think have not had the tits ringed out of them by previous owners. Most of us here are just telling you to be open to other models/types

Tis the rep system here. No problem with the language, it's the intent of the post that may attract negative (red) or positive (green) rep....check the little green square(s) on the right of each posters entry

yea it think it awsome ay. only difficulty is that its way down south. he sounds like hes looks after it well also. what do you think of it?

**yungatart** · 1st October 2006, 15:39

Delirium, Mstrs has put up his hand and offered to help you, he is a very experienced rider with 30 plus years on the roads. He is a mentor to HB riders and is my mentor, he has a 15 yo son who he has also mentored and assisted him in to making good decisions on his first bike purchase. You could do alot worse than Pming him to have a chat....

**Delirium** · 1st October 2006, 15:45

yea thanks. he pm'd me just before.

delirium, you're 17, you may think you've learnt a lot about the road, and you want a super quick bike, sounds like a recipe for disaster, owning and crashing a fast car doesn't mean you've learnt anything about hazard detection if anything it means you've learnt very little, listen to mstrs and potentially save yourself a lot of pain, and money, when you took the cbr for a ride did you try doing some emergency stops or, turns? I found on my VFR the first time I rode it (similar riding position to the cbr) that it took a lot of getting used to the far more forward riding position and it took a lot of balls to just turn the thing hard, let alone being able to do it in an emergency
