Re: Slappers Go East Sunday 12th July

I'm on the loan bike so I can't push it anyway. See, you say that, but we all know you not pushing it will still see me clambering around the bike like an amphetamine-fuelled monkey trying to keep up, despite my Bhp/torque advantage! It's all good, I'll ...

Re: My next rocket ship

I test rode a 675 when they first came out. I had a 954 Blade at the time and in 3rd and 4th gear on local twisites i wouldn't say there was much difference. Had it for a full day and loved it, the handling was amazing, it felt tiny like a 250 and just leant and leant forever. Great bike ...

Re: Summer gloves

I've got A-Stars SP2's, good price and I've crash tested two pairs so far. I'll buy them again. I'd say they saved me a good hand injury last crash, the knuckles on the LH had been ground down, and if it hadn't been the carbon there it would've been messy. http://5cf9f959bf0963c59a2a-252b16f42502684a9c6046db5a5fc8cf.r71.cf1.rackcdn.com/catalog/product/cache/1/image/9df78eab33525d08d6e5fb8d27136e95/s/p/sp2_leather_glove_black_5.jpg

... and he reckoned the Toseland effort was on something built over 20 years ago and there was little chance of them achieving it. did they also say that another reason he dropped out was because of fears of deformed botox and smudged make-up?

Wow big bill to swallow. I guess as you say nothing to pay out for another 12 months and you know both bikes are in A1 condition.

Re: 2016 BMW S1000RR

You can buy nearly three year old 1199s with less than 3000 miles on the clock.

As you say, i'm not complaining as we can get barely used bikes for 2/3rds of what they cost new but it does make you wonder what the motivation is to spend so much on a bike that people hardly use.

I think that was on the cards anyway. I can't say I'm bothered eitherway. It's not like the old WSB days when Ducati were allowed to dictate the rules to suit them.
