The "No Half Measures" decal on what remains of the nose cone seems quite fitting...

Glad you are up and about mate, and good luck with trying to get it back, looks like it's in good enough shape for a track project.

... brighter and stronger everyday I've now got hair envy as hers has come back and mine never will (doh) She has still got some drains in but it looks like 2 can come out but the other 2 are showing no signs of slowing down. But all being well, she should be back at home on Tuesday next week ...

After seeing it only a few weeks ago in pristine condition that looks proper sad.

... like a triangle. The engine casing on the right hand side is smashed but its the top one so there's a chance the engine is not lunched. The bike looks straight and even the forks look OK. Will ring the insurance company up tomorrow and see what they say,

Nice lid Tony, looks good with the dark visor.

Balls looks like they were loading there vans up. Guessing there organised and stole a few more

I was originally talking about just the bike.

It seems I'm on my own going for looks, but luckily I don't have to make a choice between one or the other, in my eyes I've got plenty of both.

... ? Or Form over function when modding a bike with after market parts. For example, I've modded my current bike and went for the arrow exhaust as it looks the best or gives the largest performance increase ?

... you ask the question on. We're mostly into our sports/naked bikes on here. When you've got people riding Multis you know that performance over looks will win in some sectors (devils) :* To be honest there are not many bikes over the years that i wouldn't buy just because they are ugly. The ...

Much depends on the forum you ask the question on. We're mostly into our sports/naked bikes on here. When you've got people riding Multis you know that performance over looks will win in some sectors (devils)

It will always be a solid performance over looks for me. My bikes have always been as bought, or as they've evolved with dented tanks and scuffs on the swinging arm etc, I really don't care how it looks (up to point of course) but it has to go, ...

Looks like its go for everyone guess we're all speed freaks.

... not so hot in the performance stakes. Obviously we want both, but if you could only have one, which would it be? Style or Performance? Supermodel looks but all the power of a DAS learner bike, or... The power of a billion suns harnessed in the frame of Farmer Giles' tractor. Personally I'd like ...

... "its like a GS for people who don't want a shitty old boring GS" (rolf) Quote of the review though is related to his opinion on its looks " its not going to get woman quaking in their own fanny batted though " (giggle)

I watched Barons review yesterday morning he seems to love the bike and he was saying just how quick it goes got what looks like a 'should be boring bike'!

Looks way better in the Repsol colours

... just had to take it home last night for another little spin. The sold models are coming through now, they do look good,must say the white one looks epic too. I keep thinking that even though it used the engine which is in mine It would be a little less responsive, nothing of the sort, the ...

... false; That bike has got the side front fork reflectors on which I think is for the US market. The engine looks different. I like those black cans but they could be masked up for testing. Looks like Brembo monoblocks as well.
