October 20, 200718 yr Well as I have just bough the new toys I wondered what the rest of you do with your spare time? Obviously mine are all on 2 wheels Must remeber to take a picture of the roadie some time!
October 20, 200718 yr Author If only my roadie was so pleasurable!!! Here she is See if you can spot the snapped spoke? this years miles obviously took their toll! Edited October 20, 200718 yr by barrybaines
October 20, 200718 yr looks really uncomfortable on those tyres you need to fit some gnarly tyres and get some street cred Barry Can't see snapped spoke but spotted where your shopping basket clips on
October 20, 200718 yr Author Must admit been looking for some slicks for the Beta for a while now, can't believe you spotted the shopping basket marks though! Took them off with their contents of TCP and Corn flour just for the shot
October 21, 200718 yr Author why two road bikes barry? Just bought the Blade and the Bandit is for sale, but wanted a picture of em all together before its gone
October 21, 200718 yr Well as I have just bough the new toys I wondered what the rest of you do with your spare time? Obviously mine are all on 2 wheels Must remeber to take a picture of the roadie some time! Thanks Barry ,you dont know it but you've help me make a decision. I seem to have less and less spare time these days and I get a lot of peer pressure to buy a road bike(and ditch the Sherco)as it's less time consuming i.e gear on press the starter and away. They say that the human brain(male especially) reacts best to visual stimulus. Looking at that picture there is only one bike there that lights my fire, the trials bike, a Beta even!!
October 21, 200718 yr Author Nope I'm just plain leftist! either that or the sun was right in my eyes that way!
October 21, 200718 yr Nope I'm just plain leftist! either that or the sun was right in my eyes that way! Looking at the tarmac beneath the Bandit it looks like you've been doin' a burnout..are you a nuisance neighbour?? When my brother had a Bandit he never washed it so I took pride in writing 'ar5e' in the dust just before it's name.. Juvenile or what? Edited October 21, 200718 yr by HAM2
October 22, 200718 yr I bet that CR is a right animal on the road! Must be fun though Yep, animal indeed. Loads of fun though. A bit dear to run and its taken a long while to get it to where it is now but its all worth it when i'm leaving those race reps on a sunday. 7-12mpg, 400 mile out of a rear tyre, 3000 mile out of a piston (if im lucky) but does the quarter in 10.52 and thanks to some recent mods now tops out at 130mph
