what does it mean/stand for?

pm husky

talk to husky, he's doing custom ones

was just hoping

you the lad braking mid corner?

I agree. V-twins arnt for everyone. I had a ducati 748sps for a year or so and that was just the same. Awesome noise with its race termini cans and superchip, but you`d just leave it in top and use the torque through the traffic. I just ended up hating it, as i prefer screaming 4 pots!!! mmm but the sounds must have been lurvey... like the revving too, tried it all and it's whats close to heart. for longer trips just up the cc

lol agreed on vtwin sound... and run it a bit rich to bang on downshifts, just remember another thing not mentioned here... quick downshifting with a twin you need to blip the throttle to stop it locking up... slipper clutch is far nicer (and a quickshifter for upshifting is nice too)

fast foward... the end...

devil z...

must have driven a rotten one argument to go for a bigger cc bike would be to have more torq and not having to gear the bike up and down to keep it at optimum revs. the boring part of the sv as far as I consider it to be is that you get bored driving it and just put in 3rd gear in town and keep it there, comparable to driving a turbo diesel car in my book. I've had 125,400,600,650s and 1litres although the 1000cc was an old one I find it to be the most allrounder. Newer 1000's are a bit mental and wouldn't pick them as a starter. 400 hornet would be a favorite I think, had a rvf 400 directly from japan that was sweet, not the most comfortable bike but very light and eeeeasy to drive. for trackwork I'd go 600 or 750 if the track has few straights and lots of technical turns. Just make sure whatever bike you get you stick an aftermarket can on, for safety and sound

post the video when you did that wheelie

how did you guys get on? my cage dont even have the motor back in the car yet

Is that the curvy one with carb or later injection? Driven both and would say get one if your commuting on it... which you ain't going to do... I was bored of my one very quick and it was a heavy lump too. Used mine for a to b but would not rate as a weekend tool.

get up an intro

how about a nice CF overlay? I might know of one for sale?

that is sometimes true, reason the got the money to start with

well you get what you pay for, honda's are pretty expensive to run (not sure about the rr but the vfr was mental service costs on) and likes to get rev'd high so again if you're going restricted (not sure you have to) then I wouldnt bother with an rr. check what a cbr 600f would be like, not as cool looking though ninjas'... it's in the name, mental all together. what year are you planning to go for? brand spanking or second hand?

I'm learning on an er6n, and at the moment I think it feels fast enough for me.. but i'm not sure how long it would last. Even going 70 on my lessons feel like i'm going much faster on the er6 as the wind is hitting you when i'm sitting upright, and it is a naked bike. Andlid, I am getting a bike for mainly weekend use, and the odd commute. My elder brother has just bought a ZX12R, so we'll be going tours of the highlands this summer if all goes well. The ER6 is coming in at £600 a year for insurance, which is pretty good for my age I thought? Cheers zx12, heavy bike if it's for weekend use get something tasty in the 600cc class, if you can stretch I'd go for a 750 gixxer has that little extra bit of power. Get good gear. I took my R6 to Sweden... so any bike can do a trip if you're up for it

get one restricted to 33hp and you'd be fine, I'd go for something twin if you are since a 4 potter would be absolutely boring... the twin has lots of torq even with a restrictor. I kinda fancied the gf's old monster 620... baffles out restricted down from 66 to 33 hp and still good fun around town. Not so much for full on sprints with the 'bracket' they fitted to restrict the play of the accelerator. Here is a teaser:

cheers lads and lasses. had a great day with to much bbq and to much drink and not enough sleep... weather was great too oh and with the roof, it's been approved so just deciding what to do now

drove an er6 once...= it's a straight sit up one though and prolly a good starter, I'd be bored on it though. Why not look at a Honda 400 cheapish to get used to biking and then go to a 600/650 and then onto 1000 (magic) What type of rider do you think you'd be? (important on what bike to recommend) I've got a few bikes in the bag and they've all been different style of driving. What is the main point of use? Well done getting on the biking scene, be careful though. Car drivers don't care about you one bit... it's you against them...

Anders your such a renegade! well in my book if you buy something cheap and it seems good enough put a little 1-2k budget aside for unforseen things that was hidden, if he just get it checked out then he'll be just as fine getting that yoke then he would be getting an absolute minter and paying top dollar for it. Never really failed on me, although some things creap up when you've wasted the budget aside for mods

if it's sound in the engine, gearbox and straight BUY Get it to a garage and check it out, wouldnt care about service record.
