A picture a day....biker banter (Vol 3)

[Fluid]

First ride of my new to me, GSXR 600.

First time I've ridden a bike on the road for 7 years, was a bit daunting at first, but soon got back into it.

They're all bored out to 1216cc

Loving the GSXR1100.

What Swingarm is that on the Bandit? It looks like it was planning to be a single sided one, but at the last minute they decided to make it dual sided!

That photo makes your bars look lopsided!

Although I can see they're not, the lack of anything on the left bar makes it look longer. You should put the choke lever on there, balance it out a bit

Why is your L/H grip so far up the handlebar?

Ace bike, I've just got back from a quick run out on my 98 600 SRAD, such brilliant bikes.

It was good fun, a bit wobbly at first.

First rideout in a while today. Had a great ride till one of the clips holding the visor on fell off when I was 30 miles from home...

Choke lever is yet to be fitted , although I think BN's point below might explain it somewhat!

No other reason than me being plain special, thanks for pointing that out, will add it to my list of jobs for this weekend!

st conditions today at Oulton Park. Rain then sun, then hail, then more rain, then sun again. Visibility wasn't the best!



Also didn't help with the visor of my new helmet steaming up loads, even with a pin lock in it

At least you kept it shiney side up mate..

I didn't see her but did see the tweet once I got home.

There was a woman riding in the fast group who binned it coming out of pitlane for the sighting laps! I presume it wasn't her.

There was a very nice 899 Challenge bike there too.

They were on the bike when I brought it but but believe that they are normal ses items. Not really thought about it until you guys pointed it out, will have to take a look and see if they are a normal size!
