The orange or the green one?? hehe



  • The walking sticks sticking out the side are crash bungs, designed to protect the body in the event of a spill...but you knew that didn't you.. wink

Wayne,

Yes - that looks nice.

Just been out on mine - as I've not ridden it for a few weeks
it's steaming hot out there in leathers but great fun. I was trying out
a new cornering technique - drop your shoulders and heads into the
corner (a lot) .. then put the knee down smile

The chicken strips have now gone.

I did about 20 laps of the local roundabout biggrin

In my youth we had an expression to 'accurately' describe the angle of lean attained: decking the tank badges biggrin

My bike has an entertaining feature... as it's a longitudinal V4, were it to fall over the cylinder heads would be the first thing on the floor. So the bike has crash bars bolted to the sides of the engine. If you can get those down, you're a God. For about a second, because then the tilt sensor decides you've crashed and turns the fuel and sparks off...
