Re: H2R 206 MPH

Looks mental.

They are marmite bikes. Glad someone has the balls to make one but equally not something i would ever want to own.

Can't really see the point in a bike that you cannot use anywhere.

Re: What are you doing today ??

... I got a free dyno out of it, but he never sent me a copy of the game he promised :( he did email me to say my bike was the sound of the Suzuki bikes. either 2010 or 2011 I think.

Re: Old Skool Biking

There's a place for tricked up bikes with computers and the back to basics type of two wheeled fun.

So long as it puts a smile on your face.

Re: Old Skool Biking

Kind of my thinking in sticking with a 600.

I reckon my ZX6R and the like is the last of the pure sports bikes. All the power, no gizmos and very little EU restriction. Which is why I intend to keep it.

I wouldn't expect much difference on the road between the two bikes, at least not without a full frontal lobotomy!

... in a crash. Not saying they are all designed with that purpose, but by default they do offer some protection. I have seen a number of bikes with them on both sides, but no idea if it's the norm on top level racing.

Re: Want!

i suspect there maybe a few bikes fitted with fugly exhausts in 2017 :D

It would not make any sense for bikes developed in the last 12 months or so not to be easily Euro 4 compliant. There are mechanical noise limits involved too.

It's a guess bit would have thought the new 2015 bikes like s1000rr, R1, RSV4 etc do. If not could be time to go shopping this time next year :P

Re: Want!

I think the only current bike that meets Euro 4 is the Multistrada.

I'm not aware of any other bikes that meet the regs from any manufacturer but I'm sure some must do.

Re: Want!

Good thinking Duke should be some bargains about but I guess it will only be bikes that don't meet Euro4 though.

I assume the 899 and 1299 meet euro 4 ? And the 1199 doesnt ?

Re: Want!

... made to the 1299 can be transferred to the 1199. The 1199R has an adjustable swing arm pivot point that can be retro-fitted to the earlier 1199 bikes. I like this sort of playing, fiddling, adjusting and improving which is why an 1199 has become of interest again. That said I went out on the ...
