Ahh makes sense!

On the upside since you are well into your 40s, you don't look so bad after all then wink

I just bought another one for track use for next year. Just need to sort some decent suspension and get some spare wheels (for wets) and it'll be ready to go. Paddock stands and new tyre warmers are on the way already.

nice bike ,but you won't be able to spin the rear wheel,wheelie or lock up the brakes on that (i have it on good authority);)

Unrelated: why don't people buy Aprilia RSV4s instead of S1000RRs (new or used)? Surely theres not much difference in price new or used and you get all the leccy goodies and an engine that sounds like the voice of God
They are nice and pretty but built for midgets, I am 6' 2" and it looks like a bloody mini moto with me sat on it, ZX10R is the same

I'm withdrawing my good authority on account of you being a closet track day hero smile.

I was going to say that. The rest of the posts are just nasty and I'm having a little cry now.

Big bullies.

Would love to be able to afford a S1000RR as a pure track bike... time to go rob a bank me thinks!
