Enjoy the test ride and try not to concentrate too much on the engine - the handling and brakes are sublime away from the city roads.

Ticked over 600 miles today on the Triumph. Can't find enough excuses to get out for a ride.

hehe

Its a bloody right laugh on a B road. The sales chap shat his pants and looked slightly distraught that I wanted another half hour in before the paperwork was signed.

Will look to get the mountune kit fitted for £600, which should take it up to 215.

First turbo charged car.

Nothing but praise for my old zetec S. Had it nearly 4 years now and couldn't think of anything to really change to. Enough power for the chassis so this seemed a sensible way forward.

Doesn't have that zetec whine which is also nice, but a good punch across mid range.

I'd probably liken this to my old 330 sport speedwise but with pretty good feedback.

Bit crashy at low speed. Will see what it's like to live with.

Did 120 miles on the 1930 Model 9 Sunbeam yesterday. Pretty crippled today as it's not the most comfy, but a great day smile

Ooh an RRT blade. Bravo. Would love another one. Mine had blackbird jets, zorst and filter plus revalved shocks and it was fking lovely. So much midrange and comfy as fook.

Is it just me or does coming on pistonheads make you want to sell your bike and buy this, that and the next thing?

So far today I've wanted to buy a Gsxr 600+750 srad, a '96 Blade, an R6 track bike, a classic Impreza and a Peugeot 306 Rallye. All in different combinations.

And I nearly bid on a cb500 on eBay today.

And I haven't even been drinking.
