  1. It's a bit like asking do you want a Yank V8 or an Italian V8.
  2. Drive both, make up your mind.
  3. No probs
  4. They're good, for what they are. I've tried them on a VXR220, and they do offer more grip than normal tyre with better water displacement than the 888, I found them to be a bit compromised tbh. The dry grip isn't good enough to warrant picking these over a really good road tyre (MPSS, obviously), and the extra wet grip isn't spectacularly better than the 888. They do have a lot of feel though, something the 888s aren't massively good at by nature, and are certainly a decent tyre in their own right.
  5. Only the Yanks could take a car so perfectly set up for corners, and turn it's USP into going quick in a straight line
  6. If you haven't had an alignment in the last 6-12 mths, then I would definitely get one. I'm sure one of the more local members here can help point you somewhere decent
  7. I know, I was agreeing with you. In a backwards kinda way.
  8. I've bought cars without driving them. Great fun! Did the VXR220 and the 911 that way. Balls = kahunas.
  9. It's not about the value of what you're insuring, it's about the value of what you can crash into
  10. Lols, just checked and found this from a biking site: VFR actually emits 158.8 g/km, so if they did that in line with cars that bike would actually be paying £175 instead of £78! :lol: Hope no-one signed that petition...

    Spot-on attitude, fair play to you fella
  12. I'd be keeping my mouth shut if I were a motorbikelist. All they'll do is re-do the bike taxes in the same vein as the car tax, but they'll reset them like this: 0-5gm = £0 5-10 = £50 10-20= £100 etc So actually, that Honda VFR is now paying MORE in tax than before. Just like how top limit for cars used to be £200 on the old system, now it's touching £500. Keep your gob shut and be thankful

    The most important thing is that the OP is happy, and I believe they are. What the rest of us think is pretty inconsequential.
  14. As far as the strut brace goes, there's no benefit having it over a stock one unless you want something prettier. Might be a bit lighter, but I honestly can't remember now. In terms of performance, I wouldn't bother.

    Silly hat rule. I doubt that any wheel you'd care to fit to that will save the front bumper from looking like a cheap snow plough.

    Oh my.
  17. As always, the Team can (and do) choose to implement what they like. Some I agree with, some I don't.
  18. Go start your own forum and moderate that, then. You can have all the sub-forums you want.
  19. I'm a forum user. This is a public forum. That's what gives me the right to comment, unless the Team say otherwise. I didn't say all people are stupid. My comments referred to stupid people. All people != stupid.
  20. Oh the ironing is delicious More sub-forums, more places for stupid people to mis-post threads. More work for mods, just to cater for stupidity. That's neither fair nor workable.
  21. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
  22. ECU will adapt to any mod you make power-wise, so pointless unless you want the noise or benefits of less weight.
  23. Definitely mate, sorry I missed you yesterday. They're just the PFL 15"s, so 6J front and 6.5J rear.
  24. Still doesn't help with people mis-labelling things. Until the mass can be trusted to use the forums available to them properly, you're only making life more awkward by giving them choice. In theory I have no issue with the idea, and in a perfect world it would help massively. The trouble is, people are stupid.
  25. Soooooon... Basically, once I've done Spa in four weeks then I'm definitely coming out with you guys
