    There were numerous delays to the procedure, none of which I really think can be laid at their door (bike shop rhymes with boato-dad). But, yeah, happy camper basically. Go the Swann

    Good stuff Dave. See you out and about on the Speed soon eh? Or do you need to wait 12 months for Motorad to repair it?

    Oh, god no, it's been written off. It's probably sitting in Motorad's workshop making it even more insanely cluttered than usual.

    B-King!! You know you want to!
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Go read the oridinal post again man, he was filling his pants at speed four velocity, B-king power would have him die of shock.

    Street triple all the way, or a 919 Hornet of course

    A street triple is, indeed, very tempting. As is a Monster 696. Not really a hornet although I'd be interested to see what one would be like before/after being Ohlins-ified.

    I try to like the VTR250 for all it's marvellous handling and just plain evil lane splitting abilities but every now and then I have this shock realisation that it's ghey and I hate it. At least six months on the VTR will have me appreciating speed again without the need to go completelyfuckingnutsout from time to time. Maybe.

    I'm also off to the States in about three months time. Bikes over there cost about half as much. Hmmmmm.

    Good to hear your chomping at the bit to get on bigger cc's again Dave.

    Be looking forward to seeing the new machine, when and what ever you choose to buy
