GSX-R750 K7 in black/black with a black double bubble, black MTC can and black bolt set to replace all the mild steel stuff. It's fairly black.

Have my name down with letter of intent for a Ducati 848S which is apparently due to be announced in March, which will be red, naturally.

Whats the difference with the standard 848 and the S Rawwr?

There's no 100% confirmed news on the spec yet but steering damper and Termis are the two bits I'm interested in.

I also have a 1990 Exup in the garage



Its fairly standard, has shorter dog bones, R1 brakes and braided hoses, its also had a little bit of engine work and its very clean for 18 years old

Edited by _Dave_ on Tuesday 4th December 18:54

That is a nice exup, my first thousand was a 1989 one in Red/White.

Looks like the R1 calipers fitted straight on.

Thanks and the best mod of all was the lighter wheels, far and away the best tangible difference to a bike; turns better, accelerates better, stops better, just overall feels better everywhere.

If anyone is wondering what to spend yer money on, lighter wheels is the best 'bang-for-buck'.

Bottle beside the temp gauge, is that for a Scottoiler?

It's a Loobman. Dirt cheap and effective

Not as tidy as a Scotoiler but a lot cheaper

[Rawwr]

It looks like a 6 month old bottle of milk.

No prob

It always starts, does 300 miles a week in any weather, carries any amount of junk, is too scruffy to nick and you can get the pegs down in the dry. Perfect
