I only asked what year model. What did I say to imply you should get a 2015 R1?

Get One anyway you tight tt, you can't leave it much longer at your age.

You keep trying to get Tony into one. The bloody salesman at the local Yamaha shop keep parking one on a plinth next to me when I'm trying to have a perfectly sensible conversation about a Tracer.

It doesn't help having a load of money in the bank ear marked for a house and a wife saying 'just get what you want!'. Aaargh - must resist!

Stop trying to get everyone else on a '15 R1 - it's you that needs to buy one!

I'll be back on my 98 bike. Truth be told I had more fun on my mate's £1500 R1 chasing Desmosedecis and track prepped Jap stuff at the back end of Fast / top of Inters than going 5 seconds faster on the later stuff - it is a trackday after all and it's mainly the fun that counts.

Have you ordered yours yet?

Whatever the team is called who ran the Be Wiser sponsor in BSB pulled out of the last two rounds of BSB earlier in the week.

PBM will now be wearing said sponsor and Buchan will replace injured Easton for Silverstone. Not heard anything about Walker presumably no ride this weekend.

Any chance of a proper upgrade for the Fireblade?

That has potential to be massively disappointing or massively exciting, I think.

I thought they were going to give Buchan a go next year.

Going to be fascinating what happens to smr, will they go to wsbk with Suzuki/aprillia like Milwaukee want or stay in bsb and possibly loose there sponsor.
