Spot on, Leadhills. It was a 1999 before they restricted them. 165 bhp at the wheel that one (had been remapped due to an exhaust change by a previous owner.
I miss it and was looking at either another one, a zx12r or a Blackbird. A Blackbird sale fell through and with a bit of thought, I've decided to buy something else. 190mph isnt really needed considering it's for commuting and occasional runs with m8's.
Successfully won a Ducati ST2 on ebay this morning. Every bike I've ever bought I've never sat on one before buying.
The first thing I done on getting into bikes was joined MAG as well. If anyones into bikes and not a member, think about joining. I'm not an active member, but I think they fight the good fight and deserve support.0 -
To all the bike pictures....I want, I pine, I burn.
Am considering not doing car lessons and going back to a bike. Used to have a 50cc Jog R, brand new on an '03 plate. CBT is easy, they treat you like you know nothing (good) and teach you what you need to know, including one of the most important things, defensive riding (i.e. cars are bigger, but don't be bullied into the gutter - keep your middle of the lane line and you'll be dandy) In the three years I rode, I had one scrape in a car park, nearly got broadsided by a !!!! on a corner, had to deal with innumerable times they thought I was a fella - kicked all the scooter boys !!!!!! and I was a 5 6 10 stone lass with more balls than the lot of 'em.
I think I'm going to do my CBT again and get a proper bike - like that lovely 400 - then share the !!!! out of my fella by bombing it down the motorway** Total debt: £6950.82 ± May NSDs 1/10 **** Fat Bum Shrinking: -7/56lbs **
**SPC 2012 #1498 -£152 and 1499 ***
I do it all because I'm scared.
