I just fancy a little bike again, thought it might fit the bill. 1200 Bandit is the most hooligan bike I've ever rode, brought out the best in me, I I mean worst :sneaky:

My Bandit never looked that good :eek:

Nice bike (y)
 
I have ridden CB500's in the past , and they wouldnt pull a greasy stick out of a dogs arse, but these days , nobody cares.. sport bikes are dead , and the best selling middle weight is the bastard son on the KLE 500 Kawasaki, which was horrific to ride back in the day , but now as the Versys , it can do no wrong.

I think its great that motorcycling has become more about doing it , than how you do it.

Sport bikes are dying, its a shame it took so long for people to wake up.

My man in Germany is looking at one of these, as an upcoming project ..

Yeah , it looks quite big in the pic, but it isn't, Zupin in Germany have some still in boxes, which I think is what my man is on with, I think there is an aftermarket pipe for it, and we have 16.5' front wheel with twin discs available too. Only thing is sorting ECU out so we can get some ponies out of it.
 
To much shyte listening to some Scotch guy talking about London lost interest.
 
Took a Street Triple R demo out this morning (y)
 
Not seen a 765 in the flesh, but quite impressed with the little 675 R ABS lots more torque'y than you'd think, I know it's only got about 100HP enough to pick the wheel up though, but it is very nimble, brakes were good, Front end was a little stiff on byroads but about right on A roads, nice little bike for someone who hasn't ridden on the highway since 1990 (y),

Had a demo on one a few years back when I wanted to change my Z1000, the noise it made when you open it up was great and kept making me go slow then open it up.

Very nimble compared to the Z but the Z had it on acceleration.
 
Been on the phone to a mate Who's collection of bikes consist of 1400 HD, Guzzi Griso, SV650s, 650 Gladius, Norton Commando, so you see a theme there, all twins, talking about the street triple & he say's it wouldn't suit me at all because I'm a revaphobe :ROFLMAO: not like you who loves to hear it screaming, so we now have another type of phobe:rofl:
