Flex Posted November 21, 2014 Posted November 21, 2014 Sarah's profile views just went up 5000% Those 5000 was just GM alone I've resisted but resistance is futile 1 Quote
nap Posted November 23, 2014 Author Posted November 23, 2014 Well my bike is put away for the winter, but I keep it taxed just in case the weather's good, if I get a good day it comes out. I have put it up on ebay, just to see if there is eney interest in it, had a few offers, but not what I want. I thought I would go for a kawasaki Z1000.ho I must have a look at sarah's profile 1 Quote

She's staying taxed and insured though, otherwise I won't ever build up my no claims! I've only got 3 years no claims, could have had 5 by now. Lol. Always a good idea to have a look on ebay, I've never listed mine, but I've looked at prices. not tempted though Z1000 nice... My first change would be the exhaust- mind u I don't like my bikes exhaust either and I haven't changed that yet. Lol. Quote
nap Posted November 23, 2014 Author Posted November 23, 2014 The race can on mine sounds great, a big V twin sounds good. My last bike was a kawasaki 1500 mean streak, V twin but it would just not go round corners, great bike but would not handle. But a Z1 , just looks the nuts 1 Quote

Jud1 Posted November 24, 2014 Posted November 24, 2014 I gave the bikes up after 24years 24/7 .. I only took my car test 8 years ago, was once my whole life!!!! but things change. Doubt I'll go back to it, but never say never right ..... buying the Z was my compromise to myself. Before I get back to bikes ....a VW Camper needs to be owned, as well as a Fletcher 17gts (or similar) - Maybe a wet bike too ... Last bikes (all sold at same time) .. XJR13, VT1100, VT600 (seat 1ft high, bike 9.5ft long) and a VL800 (Wife's) < Multi show winning bike (best paint) Prior to getting into the more comfy (VT6 was not comfy) - I mainly rode GSXR750's (fave being the WT) had 2 of those ... also a K1 version FJ1200, YZF750, RRV Blade, FZR1000 (Genesis not Exup) 2xGPZ600, 1xXJ600, GS550, CB550, CB360, CB250 (dream), XT500, 500Speedtwin (pre unit), DT250 Problem is as it stands ... I know F'all about Cars !!!! Daily drive is my C270 CDI 1 Quote

You can, and that really would be something on the old H2 "rubber mounted bullet"! Quote
Richf Posted November 26, 2014 Posted November 26, 2014 Never heard of it being done , I know someone who had one running a lot of nitrous Quote
Jud1 Posted November 26, 2014 Posted November 26, 2014 Never heard of it being done , I know someone who had one running a lot of nitrous Nitro 2 Stroke! ... top banana! A mate of mine did his "Selfabusa" (Hayabusa) - that was ridiculous! I don't think you'll see many Supercharged 2's ... but it has been done, have a google on "Supercharged Deeks" Quote
SteveM Posted November 26, 2014 Posted November 26, 2014 my little toy. http:// Very Nice! i have / Had a Kwaka ZX12r until recently when the bottom end went bang in the process of stripping and selling it off in bits to fund next years bike (already made more back than i paid for the bike 3 years ago!!!!) and was thinking about either an RSV or a Tuono... would be interested in your thoughts on them and anything in particular to look out for, i know the sprag clutch is an issue but other than that my only other twin was a TL1000s which i loved but it kept trying to kill me!!!

nap Posted November 26, 2014 Author Posted November 26, 2014 Iam in no rush to sell, if I get a new bike now it will only get put away till the weather picks up.i have two cars, and see no point riding the bike in bad weather. Those days are long gone, I have been there in the past and I am to old for that now, ,, lol I like my comforts these days. Only problem is I have a new aprilia RSV leather jacket lol. Quote
