The ghey is strong in this thread......

Sorry but I disagree completely. Can you define to me please how it's very unforgiving? A 600cc sportsbike has hardly any torque and is very top end, so if I snapped the throttle open or accidentally hit a bump and tugged the throttle, nothing bad would really happen as it lacks that instant power. a 1000cc sportsbike which has the power to weight ratio of a Bugatti Veyron, has instant power, especially under 50mph, it's nothing but vicious. A 600cc is almost too fast for the road but its rev range is so high (14000 red line), you will have plenty of time to correct any wrongdoing.

My fav biking photo. I was 17 and this was my first track day. I was poor and couldn't afford decent fitting leathers or anything lol....

Sod all because I have twins that will be born so all man plans are screwed for 2016, 2017, 2018......lol

Little Bella is growing up fast and loves the bath.....hates water but loves a dry empty bath.... And she sits like this all the time..... "Tell me Ed, tell me of that one time you drifted around that roundabout like a boss"...

Hi Joey, I've been riding sports bikes for 13 years solidly on track and road, owning about 15 bikes and they pretty much ruled my life from the age of 17 to 23, 30 now nearly. I personally and just my opinion, would lower your budget because the general rule of thumb is, that you always drop your first bike. Crashing a bike is quite easy compared to crashing a car for obvious reasons. If money isn't an issue then go for it but if you're a sports bikes fan and want to track or ride faster, majority will dump it. A bike only goes as fast as you twist the throttle, 600cc sports bikes are very forgiving, excellent handling and won't kill you if you whack the throttle open (unless you're on cold tyres or in the wet). My friend recently got a k4 GSXR 600, now a 750, they are good bikes to learn on and for purely road riding, you seriously don't need anything faster, they still do 170mph roughly. Do you want to do track days? Right from the start, as soon as you can, do an advanced riding course and as many as you can. Because you're new, your mind and learning process will be like a sponge so get rid of early bad habits and let experienced professionals guide you to being a decent rider. I am genuinely lucky to be alive! Seriously lucky, a few inches here and there and I would be dead. Also I have been to 10 funerals, 6 of them bike related, so it's important you have riding friends around you, that like to have fun but are sensible, "time and place" is crucial. I started off on a Cagiva Mito 125cc for a year, then an NC30 for a year which is 60bhp, then I jumped at 18 and a half years of age, to a 1999 Fireblade back in 2005 which was 132rwbhp(stage 2 dyno jet kit). Everyone said I would kill myself, even my Police Sergeant said I would die lol. Honda CBR600F like the above are great learning bikes but IMHO, virtually all 600cc bikes are great learners. 1000cc is too big a jump, they do 95mph in first gear and if you are heavy handed mid-corner, will totally spit you off. I've seen it so many times on track. Triumph Daytona 675 is a great bike and a personal fav of mine. Sounds amazing, handles even better and looks OK. Whatever you do, enjoy it. Nurburgring is close, European roads are amazing, France is the best riding country IMHO, we have the best selection of tracks in the world and European trackdays are cheap enough. I still remember picking up this nearly new back in 2008, such a lovely bike.

Personally, I wouldn't bother selling the car just for the court appearance unless you really want rid/ have to sell it to pay the fine. You can pay the fine monthly. What will make a difference is what you say in court, how sincere and apologetic yet genuine you come across.

It must have sold as it's gone now. Bloody nice car. I was going to have it until I found out my lass is expecting twins lol. fml.

Thinking of getting a car game. Asseto Corsa or Project Cars for the PS4?

I have been to court for two offences on the same day, 94 in a 50 and a 133mph in a 70. I walked out with a 3 month ban which I thought was a result. Lawyer is the best route if you can afford it. You need to play on how important your job is to your family/life. You need to own up to the stupidity and call yourself a "twatbadger" in court. If you admit fault instantly, admit stupidity but also mention how your job is impossible without a licence, you will get a ban, acknowledge that straight away. Were the conditions dry and clear with light traffic? If so, mention that. If it was rush hour and wet, don't mention it. Look smart as you can, take out any earrings and sound as posh as you can. The magistrates that will listen to this will be 50+ years of age and part of the "higher society". The closer you can relate to them, the better. Court is just one big game. I also got a ban knocked down to 6 points so either I am ridiculously lucky or I play the game well enough. And to people that will get insulted at my words. He is admitting fault, but just trying to get a smaller fine and ban which any of us would do in the same situation. A bit like getting discount off a new car lol Even though I've had 5 bans in total(in a space of 6 years), it has destroyed me on insurance and has a been a right pain. I paid £6600 for insurance on an 08 M3. £4400 for a 05 Clio turbo the year before I personally now, wouldn't do 129mph. Your stopping distance is ridiculous and even after my 2 advanced Police driving courses and 2 advanced bike courses, you really don't know how bad it can go wrong, not for you but for others as well. I never worried about crashing in a car, but hitting someone else due to my stupidity would devastate me. Good luck, you might get viciously bummed in court but whatever it is, you deserved it, take it on the chin and don't call the magistrate a ****er, i saw that once lol

My good friend is Adele Blake.... 2014 World BodyBuilding female champ. If anyone wants any help, I can point her this way.

Fingers crossed he gets viciously bummed by a pack of horny bears......

I was 26 when I bought my first Zed. I was going to pick up another this month but found out 3 days ago that my lass is preggers so went to look at houses yesterday instead. I got in contact with Ducati when I bought a new 1098S, I was the 2nd youngest owner apparently in the UK according to them, that was 8 years ago. With my new mortgage soon and business over draft, I will be a few quid over a million pounds in debt, now that's depressing lol......

My Step dad used to have 3-5 pints with a meal 3-4 times a week and drove home, got pulled a few times and always passed. Nearly a decade ago, I left the Police and witnessed some horrendous drink drive accidents. Having witnessed that, if you think you are getting close to the limit, then just don't risk it, literally a life changing moment "might" happen and for what? Save a taxi or a lift etc. just pointless.

It's for sale on Autotrader for £11,480

I once got a warning point for saying that on here. True story. Not that I'm suggesting you get one though! Really? That's a shame but I've already got 2 warning points so will keep it down......

yay! Coke and Hookers all round!

I wanted a boy and to call him Frank. Sadly the litter only had a girl left so she is called "Bella" short for "Lady Arabella" which I kid you not, that very name is on the insurance certificate. And plus, I wanted a normal cat, like a £50 job. But oh no, the woman barges in like John Wayne and wants a bastard pedigree cat so it "matches our sofas". Sometimes, I wonder why I chose this life.......lol

Thanks. Yep, British Short Hair cats are well known for having massively fat faces. Adult cats are stupidly round lol

What's the whole point of it? What's the actual end result of that game? I have a PS4 and considering it for the boys (14 and 16) but not sure if they will like it. One likes to mess stuff like and the other likes to build empires etc

Amazing work. For sure, I will use you. Just need to find a nice car....

Great work. I'm saving these pics and names for when my project starts! Can you actually buy all this stuff in 100% carbon fibre or not?
