    Haha. Yeah. Sorry about that.

    I swapped with a mates R6 yesterday, and he was completely blown away by the Striple.

    gave it a right flogging alright, wheelies really well, strong lower range and holds the power well all throughout the range. A definite winner in my books.... Good buy Gubb and cheers for the ride

    never has another biek wheelied past the mighty R6 before.... but then again its owner wasnt on it

    I don't give any bike a flogging (except when I fuck up a gear change). I am probably the crappest rider of one of the greatest bikes out there

    Your bike guaranteed that I would purchase a striple... I found the arrows slightly too loud for me (but I wasn't wearing earplugs on the demo ride). But it certainly turned a few heads as I cruised through Newmarket

    I ride with ear plugs now... (after I went to Kaukap and back it made my ears ring). I don't ride very fast either, usually enjoying just being on the road too much.
