    I'm lucky I'm out of money. I'd be buying the Yammy and asking CM2005 how much for one of his KR's...

    With enough money I'd be asking KR (THE KR) how much for one of his KRs. Saw one at the Auss GP trade show & even though they were getting trounced by the V4 500s it was still an unbelievably sexy bit of kit.

    Make an all right roadbike, add some lights, heated grips, packrack, topbox, just the essentials.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    Of the 4 I'd pick the Yamaha.

    The problem with the Aprilias is they have the hand grenade RGV engine in them that shag out pretty much everything, power valves, pistons, barrels, cranks, gearboxes.

    Whereas the Yams crack barrels in no time at all preserving the rest of the engine from further wear.

    . . .Um

    What are the differences between the MC21 and MC28?

    Yeah, I'd go for the Yamaha too. Those TZRs don't seem to pop up very often. I'm sorry, but I'm not very keen on the RS250 styling. It's too OTT. And let's face it, it's a Suzuki engine, with all the associations that incurs.

    However that's not to disrespect those RSs -- I would want of those far more than a GSXR or summat like that. If you could make some custom fairings up for one, it would be the sharpest little bike.

    The MC21 is faster.

    It's easier to change the rear wheel on the MC28

    Yep, me too - once I get something, it's a keeper for me!

    "Ooh, lookit all those bikes mounted on the wall!"
    "Yes, it be me happy huntin' ground for bikes that I've biffed over banks, chuck down the dales, looped it over the hills and ridden to the death!"
    "So...why so many bikes outside then?"
    "Ah, now laddy, those be my bikes that I will be intending to biff over banks, chuck down the dales and looping it over hills and to be ridden to the death!"
    "Sir...you are certifiable..."
    "Been meaning to get off my learner's for the past 20 years too, lad."
    "......"

    And yes, I hope to be having that conversation one day!
    "I like to ride anyplace, anywhere, any time, any way!"
