if you're planning any winter riding, heated grips are also excelent!

ya just gotta love mk,on a quick bike
them roundabouts are ace,
with 0-70 dashes in between
no fookin traffic lights

buzzed around the city for around 20 mins,
the roads were so quiet that ya could straight line so many large roundabouts and lean right over on the big uns well worth the trip,,

Funnily enought I plumped for the bike this weekend to 45ish mile ride up to Dr Frank's and work on the truck from South London to Bucks. Some urban, country, and motorway riding, and a damn good blast it was too

i'd have to pry the keys from my brothers cold dead hands go get that one..

owned by the mechanic from Bob Kings in bedford from new, it has been played with a lot, to the extent it spits flame on the over run, and wheelies off the throttle in second..

its done 13,000 miles from new, he's had it about 7 yeas and done about 500 on it!!

Mind you better than my Honda's 1st owner - 646 miles in 19 years !

I sure don't over use my Camaro but it does get driven, in winter the longest it goes between a 30 miles run is 4/5 weeks.

I think he needs to sell that VRF to me

philoldsmobile

from his garage to ours is the furthest its been ridden this year, a whole 50 meters at most...

must be something about owners of red V engined hondas!!
