Maybe boring is the wrong word, as it's a very capable 600, but it's not engaging like the kwak or the 675.

The daytona is a slim so sit on one first. You might not like it. Otherwise it's a great handling bike and the triple engine gives a kick lower down.

675 is a good shout.

If you're getting the zx6r go for the newe 2009+ models. The R series is more of a loon and probably better on the track than the newer 636.

CBR600rr is a great bike and I loved mine but it isn't the most exciting of rides.

Rickster some of us have discussed doing the speedway day again. Its great fun and a good way of learning to feel the bike slide.

What about a zx6r ?

Ducati 848 sounds very interesting.

Cbr600rr great bike but really needs working hard in my experience.

As Kwacky suggested here is a new thread to sound you guys out on a possible off road experience day. I did a taster session this week and it was a great deal of fun, two days later I am really feeling it in my legs lol (facepalm) Duke mentioned a day down in Wales, there seems to be a number around ...

2008 or later. It's a pity though, that they have such a limited colour range. Why on earth did they stop doing their bikes in blue?

... like your running (ecuse the pun) an intense program of races. I really envy you as I have had to give up my running through injury and its a great hobby and pass time not to mention a way of keeping fit and in shape. Good luck at getting your 52 PB (y)

great pairing ,it will be a massive advert for triumph
i wish them all the best ,cant wait to see the tv programme they make about it

Nice one Frankie, looks great. Would have gone myself if not working as I remember dukese recommendation well.

Had an exciting day from the postman. Had 1 reg/ rec turn up and 1 brand new motobatt turn up. Highly recommend buying through Busters on eBay their services have been great to me

Great job with the NCB protection. it's a bitch when they take your hard earn years away from you!

Great shot and great advice from Si. Glad you have the lens back Jack and your happy with the results which are stunning. Well done mate.

... I have to send the GAP peeps the offer the insurance company make and they then sort it out between themselves. If I get a new Tiger out of it, great. If I get a payout, great.

Nice one Frankie. I would genuinely love a go on one of those beasts, looks a great bit of kit.

... runs out of steam. I reckon you'll be going some to see more than 115mph on the speedo. The seat is comfortable and the ride height is tall. It's great for commuting as you get to see a lot ahead of you. The mirrors are closer than I'm used to but work really well. Just be careful when you're ...

Haha great excuse for a early birthday pressie which you can forget about and then treat yourself to another...I know your game duke!! [emoji13]

Didn't realise how old cornetto were, that's quite a shocker I thought they were relatively new!! Great add, I wouldn't be surprised if nowadays they would ban that for thieving!! [emoji1]

I must be the odd one out and the only one with style 8) as I like that colour scheme and have always thought the assymetrical headlights was a great design (y) My mum did always say I was special (giggle) While I respect your opinion, I always thought it looked like two different teams of designers ...

Completely agree about Interstellar - I watched it with the family and thought it was great, Mrs Gee kept asking what was happening at the end though - our 12yr old told her she should been paying better attention........ The folly of youth.

... the system then you are effectively re inflating the economy. The downside is that done to excess it causes inflation. Its unearned money so not a great idea unless circumstances are pretty bleak. http://www.bankofengland.co.uk/monetarypolicy/pages/qe/default.aspx" onclick="window.open(this.href);return ...
