    Nascar howl from a Yamaha.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Actually, the VERY best sound ever is my gutless 60HP KTM 690smc with the full Akra system and modified airbox going around the outside of a 2009 R1 or GSXR like they are standing still or my Nana is riding.............................the pilots of the UJM's might think it sounds pretty crap but that's just the sore losers view.

    Some great sounds here.
    http://www.vintagebike.co.uk/Sounds.htm
    The Yamaha RD05a V4 from the late 60's (bottom left)when if you weren't on a Yamaha you were 'nowhere man'. The 250cc V4's were indomitable. They were banned from racing because they were too fast.
    They changed the rules to give other manufacturers a chance.
    One of those sounds that makes your hair stand up on the back of your neck.
    Could probably curdle milk from fifty paces.
    Atheism and Religion are but two sides of the same coin.
    One prefers to use its head, while the other relies on tales.

    we sold a couple , and years later when I go to Japan we had one in the shop , funnily enough I just didnt bother riding it

    Those in the trade might understand why,,,,

    what ya mean is I wasn't trying and you're kidding yourself.

    actually, i followed you, not trying to pass. when i finally did, i pulled away.

    I seem to recall you pulling up beside me after i stopped waiting for all to catch up and you saying something along the lines of "damn that thing's fast"

    be honest dangerous, you're a damn good rider but you didn't have what it took on the guzzi that day
