TVR planning a bike range.

[Ghost Lemur]

I'll take a wait and see approach on this one.

If they're like the cars, they'll be mind-bogglingly quick, ear-splittingly loud. Kind of strange looking and spend half their lives in the workshop.
Like a Ducati,sort of.

[Darryboy]

Yeah, did a bit of poking around and it appears MCN aren't the most reliable.

Apparently the rumour goes that Nikolai Smolenski (the guy that recently bought TVR) is looking at purchasing CCM (or some Motorcycle company)...

(I only briefly had a squiz with google so I may be completely wrong)

[Biff]

And FWIW MCN are knowen for there not so up to date and imaginary stories.

Nooooooooooo - it can't be true - you lie, you lie. I am a broken man

"TVR planning a bike range."

Before I got into bikes (and still now) I always lusted after TVRs
What I wouldn't do for a T440R... Or a Cerbera... Or a Griffith... Or a Sagaris... etc etc 'drool'

That would make sense because CCM just closed their doors.

Speed 6 - Fwoarrr

Ahhh but jim, while the speed 6 is one horny wee car the speed 12 is the mutts nutts, the last I heard it was still only a track car still to be put on the road, but that was a couple of years ago.

All the Top Gear lads and ladesses think the Speed 6 is a better drive than the 12, and the top speed of both is academic. I also reckon the 6 sounds nicer than the 12 through the stereo.

You DORK! You know I prefer your shape SS to the later one, that the 916 and MV F4 are the sexiest motorcycle designs ever, and that the Multistrada is my all time UGLYBIKE thus far! It wasn't about Ducati in general it was about how 749s, 999s, and Multistradas look. I'm sure they go fine. But I can't ride very well when helmet is full of vomit (can't ride well at the BEST of times), which I'm sure it would be if anyone ever strapped me to a Multisrada and pointed my down the driveway.

Why react? Hmmm? Hmmm?

What happened? Did the sheep shag back?

BTW: When you talk to your Mum and she starts talking about family, go into "Husband Aha, Uh hum", mode; make her think you are listening, but think dreamy thoughts of Ducatis wafting over perfectly cambered and radiused corners (But don't think of F__KING Multitradas or I'll pop out of your daydream and break all your other teeth).
