Re: What did you do to your bike today ??

You spend all that time cleaning your bike and it gets covered in road grime the first time you ride it.

Re: It's time for a bike change - Cornish is on the hunt aga

... It's a 2011 bike great piece of kit and great out of the box. The gearing does need adjusting in my opion just because 1st gear is to tall for the road so you find your self in first a lot on standard gearing. Apart from that it's does not need anything great bike so far handles well and great ...

£10k for a brand new ZX10R. A few £££ more than the RRP of a zx6r.

Re: CBR600RR no more

You will always have divided opinion on which is best 600 or 1000cc road bikes but I personsally don't see the end of the 600 class as a bad thing. The whole reason manufacturers make 600cc sportsbikes is one simple reason, supersport racing. If supersport ...

Re: CBR600RR no more

Personally I think litre engines are more rounded and all round useful than 600 engines.

I do love being able to properly rag my 748 on the road (something you struggle to do on a litre bike now) but it is very single minded and only good for that one thing.

Re: CBR600RR no more

Most clubs have the likes of CB500 and 400cc race series so I'd imagine it'd be fine. I do think that 1000cc bikes are better on the road though so I completely understand why the 600s don't sell as well

Re: CBR600RR no more

Things run in cycles with bikes, in my biking life I've seen sports mopeds come and go, road trail bikes ran their course and came back again, the 250 class was epic but still disappeared, 2 strokes were legislated out of existence, big V twins ruled the racetrack (and ...
