Yes i have the same issue, Blade.

Would love a Panigale but don't want to sell either of the bikes i already have and to add another would mean the 748 would probably have to be sacrificed or at the very least mothballed.

... so long and perhaps for the best. They were talking about the dangers of motorsport on the radio and how its a big part of it. I think riding bikes on the road is not dissimilar and gives it the edge that makes it so exciting. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/formula1/33578770" onclick="window.open(this.href);return ...

The reports I have read have said its a fun bike and better than the MT09.

Performance Bikes have recently taken one as a long term test bike and I think their plan is to improve the suspension.

Kiwi I quite like the bike! Don't usually like these type of bikes but that looks prety cool especially when you look at what it was.

heres a few more , some of the better known bikes/riders , mostly https://scontent-lhr3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpf1/t31.0-8/10987349_676897292411300_7887886751722570571_o.jpg https://scontent-lhr3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xfp1/t31.0-8/10924169_676896949078001_2869082045602400370_o.jpg ...

Sat: working on the bikes.
Sun: going BSB Brands Hatch, full VIP treatment courtesy of a mate involved with racing.

... relaxing. Been to gym been catching up here before the missus comes home as she hates me reading up on here while she's in the house...it's no bikes time when she's around haha! Tomorrow missus is off so we're thinking of go I g to the beach with the dog and getting out in the apparently nice ...

... of £4800 - brand new. £1000 less than the UK and its still a bargain here. Highly recommended. You wouldn’t believe that one company can make two bikes so different in the same series....

... we started a trend of lonely rideouts? It's me people don't want to ride with. Look at the lengths people have gone to to avoid coming out on the bikes with me. Pitty went to the expense of taking up racing, Bratty sold his bike and Cookie moved to France. And you still come over and ride. Your ...

But the different shape of the bikes means it doesn't carry so well on to the road bike IMO.

... over and say hello... I'm Paul, from http://www.biketuna.co.uk , a small corner of the net that sells performance parts and accessories for sports bikes and track bikes. We do things a little differently to the rest in that we are trying to build a Wikipedia style database of how to guides for ...

The 848 is s pretty bike, it's towards the top of my all time favorite bikes.

cookie have you ridden the new ducati monster ? they are amazing fun bikes and can do everything well with bags of character

... at the moment. But if it was closer I'd get it for the novelty even if just for 6 months till I got bored with it. I used to race similar bikes (albeit a bit quicker, 125cc) in my youth so it grabs me in a weird sort of way. I guess I should really put the effort into getting the triumph ...

That really does look "old skool"; from back in the day when bikes handled like they had a hinge in the middle.!

No originality, no performance & no handling..... : sorry Kiwi, but it's a no from me.

had a good weekend at Mallory , saturday was glorious weather , sunday not so much until the afternoon , still plenty of classic bikes on track and on display , managed to get A3 prints of Kiyo and McGuinness signed , they will be framed and given to the Royal Marine Charitable Trust Fund ...

... the only way you could get one was to buy an ex Auspost bike. I really think this is a awesome conversion, I've been scouring the net for similar bikes and I haven't found one I like better. The more I think about it the more I want it! I don't even want to think about what I'm going to cop if ...
