Makeitfit had bought ALL the oil at my local tesco,

And i do mean ALL!!

we had our own home delivery van when tesco messed up and had it up for 43p per ltr, the driver rang b4 loading to check it wasnt a computer error lol, we had 300ltrs delivered :thumb2:thumb2

didn't like corners:lol:lol:lol:lol:lol
you avin a laff.
you needed to beef up and lift rear end.
shear torque out of bends will put you in front of an r1

Yeah I'm a road bike fan myself and i find that a decent sit up and beg will spank a sports bike (same power n weight obv)

yeah did all that spanked plenty a sports bike to but still didnt like hair pins im doing the stelvio pass this june it wouldnt like that sort of road at all lol at least my new one is happy scraping its pegs

 

[puddle hoppers inc.]

lol, no chance! in the bends its all down to the rider, lighter sports bike is always gonna pop the naked ones on acceleration...

I did say same weight n power :thumb2

I personally prefer the sit up and beg, more of a lean angle available. My olf fzs1000 had a 45 degree lean angle she was ace.

N dont get me wrong ive had a 929, ive had trumpets, ive had a tl1000r

 

[AlexD333]

You also didn't see ghost rider on a sports bike eh :naughty

big fat heavy bike I will have to agree.
one of my all time favourite bendy tight lane bikes was me gsx750f katana.
very nimble very quick.
they are now very cheap.:augie

 

[puddle hoppers inc.]

ghost rider rides a sports touring bike, supercharged hayabusa not a chuck into corner ground clearance bike, good lord i thought my zx9rc1 was old but you guys are talking about dinosaurs lol, i loved katanas when i was a kid, street wolf? will stick to my 0-60 and back to 0 in 5 seconds thanks..

 

[puddle hoppers inc.]

that said i am going to buy a zx1300...:sly:sly:sly:sly:sly

 

[judd750]

zx6r for me,
one tooth lower front sprocket
cheap insurance, road tax
it does the job

 

[puddle hoppers inc.]

tbh when it comes to bikes even a comuter 500 is going to do any porsche/most earlier ferraris on 0-60, sub 4 seconds for most +500cc bikes these days = happy days! best one i had was a convertible ferrari, outside a crowded pub summertime,at some lights, he came up the outside.revving it like fook... oh the shame as he had to change gear... mine does 81 in first lol

no bikes for me at the mo.
if I had a grand for one.
it would buy my custom built roof rack. and my 3 inch suspention lift.
if I had 2 k it would buy a nice bike. but.
it would go on a roof rack, a sus lift, 33s. steering box upgrade and finish me boot build.
if I had 3k
it would be all the above. and a winch bumper, winch, rear bumber ,winch ,and a rear work light.
oh and I would still have 50 notes to chuck r1chos way for some stikers
