It's special I agree but not special enough to justify 60k imo. I genuinely would prefer the more road focused 1299 if I had the choice.

... a little fragile after spending yesterday drinking cider and watching the cricket. I was leading so it was a gentle pootle out of Stow and on the road to Tewkesbury. We skirted around Ledsbury, Ross on Wye and Gloucester before heading off towards the Cotswolds Airport for coffee and cake. A good ...

Think what you could buy with 60k

Ducati 1299s for the road, Yamaha R1M for the track and a BMW S1000XR for holidays and days out with the missus. Plus you would still have best part of 10 grand cash for fuel, tyres and track days

I saw a new r1 on the road near me. Looked smart but was in a 30mph limit so never got a good listen

Rocket I'm guessing for the next few months your going to be very cautious road riding. I just hope that doesn't make you feel slow in any way. Take your time riding to your normal pace, it's not a race to get back into full swing of things Cheers Rossgo , I'm ...

... of pain. Perhaps instead of compromising with repairing an old and tied suit for track work safe the cash to invest in a decent 2 pc for both road and track or alternatively safe the money. Hope you don't mind me saying but probably best not to wear something that could fail on track after ...

... have served me well over 12 or so years. I do think I might get the zip replaced and use them for track leathers and get some new ones for the road. They definately have to be two piece, not overly fussed on brand names as protection at the right price is the answer for me.. I've tested the ...

... around London without a single leak. The set I have now have only leaked once but to be fair to them the rain was so heavy it was bouncing off the road to waist height. So heavy in fact I had to pull over as I couldn't actually see the road.

... mean), at the bottom take a left to Much Wenlock, turn right onto the A458 for about half a mile, then left onto the B4371for Church Stretton. Top road, this, it's a grand ride across Wenlock Edge. At the traffic lights cross the A49 into CS town centre and just keep going up, the road is The Burway ...

There is a road up there but it's 35% and narrow, and if you get vertigo then don't bother as it's unfenced, have you been up The Burway kwacky? I occasionally ride it and just hope I never have to do a hill start up there...

I might do that at some point, new leathers for the road have to come first though or I'm not going to get any riding in this year... Videos below from the first two sessions, I'm really quite impressed with the camera not only are the videos good ...

... over the years due to fire damage, several to be tipped over whilst erected (wrecking the boom) and half a dozen where they've rolled or run off a road which can twist or bend major components due to the weights involved, despite the Tonka toy appearance they are very precisely put together and ...

... van and got all packed up as the day is a 05:15 start !! The start of the day was uneventful, quick cup of coffee and a shower and time to hit the road. Joys of driving so early is there is nothing on the road, and the new shape transit is really nice to drive. One quick stop for a coffee and a ...

I fancy a quick blat into Wales and back taking in the usual roads.

Brum to Quatt Cafe
then the old Ludlow Road B4364 to Ludlow.
Craven Arms
Newtown
Crossgates

then loop back towards Brum.

... Barely used, not a high end set, AGV Sport, but still will be good second set. Bit more room in them than my Beriks so probably use them on the road (so I can fit gear on underneath) once the triumph is painted. Only going to cost me the postage, and I've got a feeling he's going to be difficult ...

There's a guy just down the road that does most of my work (Gary from the bike base or GS Tyres - two names same place!) He usually beats many other places for tyres around the local area. I'll prob give him a call and see what he can do. But £130 seems magic to me for a bloody good tyre

Saw one of these at the service station today

Had a quick chat to the owner, said it had been a number of years since I'd seen one of those one the road (and this one was absolutely mint!) and he replied 'I've got 4 of them'
