Similar to you Perks. I got the ten in January and jut couldn't wait to test it in anger.

Great chance to play with thr TC coming off roundabouts though

And finally the KTM Superduke 1290 GT.

Lovely bike and a proper sports/touring bike i suspect. Its not cheap though even if its well specc'd.

new GSXR1000. Do like the lines on this though the headlight is a bit strange.

... I actually don't mind the 959 aftermarket exhaust, were it to be a freebie included i still might consider one. Do quite like the next GSXR1000 though its was only on a stand and not able to sit on it. It doesn't have M50 Brembos though. The new ZX10 is nice but not keen on the colours especially ...

Picked up my visor. Think I now need a new Pinlock though as the silicone is non existent on it now haha!

Me too... Bloody expensive though... £2k plus for 36 hours! (And that's without drinkies)..

Lovely though

Had a moment of inspiration (read as madness) and started decorating the dining room....

Didn't realise that paint went of though, opened a pot of white paint I've had for a few years and it smelt like bad beer farts...

... buy a car from a dealer in Glasgow. It was a 3l V6 Jag and the start of the plate is V666 then my 3 initials. Before I was due to collect the car though he emailed me to tell me that he's had it inspected and all the suspension was knackered. Gutted. Can't even use it on my bike 'cause my VFR ...

... group test ride to France and Italy 3 - controlled back end slides. 4 - only the zx10r really tickles my interest. Not sure I want a litre bike though 5 - yep, a few months after my crash when I was struggling physically and mentally with the injuries.

... to swim in proper swimwear!! I did 200m at a fast pace followed by 20 lengths more relaxed. I'm still trying to teach myself to front crawl better though as I feel like I'm going to drown in the last 10m.

I do like the private plates that look like a normal plate because you can tell it is private but it doesn't stand out too much: XJ05 PUD. Although, obviously to everyone else they aren't going to realise your nickname is SPUD. I do like the R9 LCX though.. While R9 is specific to the bike it ...

Well I'm in the chav camp then I as me and missus have one each.

Wouldn't bother again though as real pita when you sell the vehicle.

... Cookie. I've looked back at the miles i have done this year and aside from the Germany trip i do wonder if the expense justifies the cost even though i love my bikes. I need to make some changes to my work/life balance before buying any new bikes as i have not had enough free time to enjoy ...

... a doctor saw him at a gig and realised he might be able to save him. The tumour he had was one which just grew but not spread throughout his body though the op to remove it was fraught with danger. Amazing story and the way with which he deals with it all and especially the fact that life for ...

Yeah don't worry I'm going to take Blade and Cornish with me

My handling fee will cancel out any saving I negotiate for you though
