    Yeah, that's OABs buzz too... just loves the fat gobs of power waves to surf on when he's feeling lazy, and the massive power when he's not.

    Yeah, you should see my fingers... more misses than hits often enough

    I don't care much what cage drivers think of bikers... I like keeping the revs spinning, to me, the ultimate bike is still a 2 stroke.

    Er. Um. Well, it got a bit sore here and there, and I had difficulty with the indicator switch, and I'm not supposed to be riding, but I'm pretty sure my hand surgeon doesn't read KB...

    Good stuff eh Dan? I remember my first ride on a litre bike. The K3 Gixxer when it first came out. I was fuckin wetting me self for days after.

    You reckon the K6 is good, wait 'till ya get a shot on something with some sorted suspension, sticky as fuck tyres and a dry racetrack. A life committed to poverty all suddenly seems worthwhile

    Amazing what 300kph on a closed private road does for a hangover, though.

    Yeah - like the one you filmed all the lane splitting on? I'm amazed you got so many cars on to that private stretch of road.
