... the road and I'll never be quick on track. The SX is the bike I'll probably change next. I like the zzr1400 but I won't be changing for at least a year. The SX is a bit of a jack of all trades but it puts a smile on my face.

Re: Bike Insurance
I always get joke like prices from Aviva. £3500 to insure my car, for example. What, did I go to sleep and wake up a 21 year old trying to insure a Fiesta ST? My car's with Direct Line, who aren't necessarily the cheapest, but I've had pretty good support from in the past. R1 and Harley ...

Bewiser are fooking useless, seriously they shouldn't even be in the insurance market. Even if they were 10 pence a year I wouldn't use them. The guy doesn't even recognise Thatcham Category 1 which is an industry recognised standard, Doesn't know what an end can is, things a tail ...

... http://indianautosblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/KTM-1190-Adventure.jpg I asked about taking the zzr1400 out as I'm tempted by one next year to replace the SX. However their new demo zzr isn't in and they've sold the old one. I'll do a review of the KTM tonight. Shortarses need not apply.

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
I paid £960 to have the R1 serviced and MOTd last year, including chain and sprocket and tyres. Done by a local race team, who did a superb job, including throttle body balancing and everything. Worth every penny. So much so, that I've done 600 miles ...
