One day i hope to be less girly, but in the meantime, this 170mph poof chariot will need to do

DDTB, can i take 2 hours and 3 minutes

Re: my shiny new bike
I'm not much of a bike nut but I never had a Ninja down as girly.
Well done Neil.
I'll go against the tide and say you'll keep this one upright long enough to sell it onto some poor sucker one day. Well done and be sure to bring it over to scare the neighbours with one day, eh.

Don't think i'll manage this weekend, having a few drinks on Friday night so no biking on saturday and so Sunday will be most likely spent with the kids.mckeann wrote:Frank, who's organising the trackday on friday?? (no no no, must not go on track yet)
D, i pick it up friday, so if you fancy a run on sat or sun (or both), then gimme a shout. Its certainly felt the roomiest of all the 600 sportsbikes i sat on, and i was impressed by the midrange torque. Havent revved it past 10k yet, been too scared

Could maybe arrange a midweek run sometime. I had mine out at the SIDC day and I was distinctly average and very rusty. I though all the motocross enduros would have helped me but it seems not.

Looks good Neil, I was going to ask how the hunt for a new car (of course I may have missed something) was going but this may be the reason, smart.
Not a massive fan of 'bike runs' and all that can bring but meeting up somewhere works.
Now the weather is improving should try to sort a midweek meet?
Keep it right side up

Looks
Love black bikes.

I don't know driving in another way which isn't risky. Each one has to improve himself. Each driver has its limit. My limit is a little bit further than other's.

Dude,
About the best possible choice you could have made IMO.
So, when do I get a shot?
