S1000rr Rules

  1. Ah, my post was just factual, is that OK too ;)
     
  2. Truth is most of all the new hyper bikes have problems , some worse than others , you buy what you buy , mostly on past owned experiences , myself had minimal probs with mine fully enjoyed it and to top it all got a cracking part ex against the new one , go on bmw forums and you will read about there owners having a bad taste of owner ship , also the Ducati holds its trade in value more than the bmw from what I've studied .

  17. we stopped racing on the road about 5years ago, when a few pals got killed, we still pull on so we always ask people if they wanna come along for a ride and we go quick, but no blind bending or Russian roulette aroung a bend on the wrong side,
     
  18. Personally I don't generally get overtaken when I'm a bit daft, although it has happened from time to time but have mellowed finally over the last few years. Serious about the GPz500 though. The guy is called Bodybags :D he grew up riding with Mick Seward (first person to lap at the Manx at over 110mph in the 80's). Boddybags never raced but was mental and faster on ride outs.
    Another mate once went on a ride out with a few people he didn't know too well and invited Bodybags along who was late. Many had R1's, GSXR1000 and the like. They asked who they were waiting for and what he rode. Bodybags on a GPz500 they were told - there was indeed a few sniggers from the sportsbike riding track-day regulars, my mate said 'don't laugh'. They found out why from Bishopthorpe near York to Whitby on B Roads - they didn't see him for long until they got there where he was waiting for them. It happens, no matter how fast you are with your new BMW, someone, somewhere will show you up on mediocre tackle - so the comparison to a Pani is futile ;)
     
  19. Right am off to bed, long flight tomorrow so fellas whatever you do make sure you both cross the finish line and shake hands once you do

    All the best
