It's big, it's fast and it's ugly

My new CBR1000 that is :-)

It's in bloody good nick, it had both Honda keys and even has the original
tool kit ;-)

First impressions are very smooth and deceptively fast. Brakes aren't *that*
bad but are certainly better than some I've ridden.

I'm off again to ride the beast.

TTFN.

Which is how I found out about the previously mentioned Oxford unmarked
yesterday - is 120 really considered speeding?

Haha! That's a tough one to answer but it's sure fun finding out ;-)

OK, I admit it. They stop me quicker than my van.

What sort of Audi was it? 120 is a ban isn't it?

Umm, a large black one? Not good at cars. Only posted the number cos
it's a new one on me - familiar with most of the local unmarked.

>120 is a ban isn't it?


Yep. It'll go nicely with the other 18.5 years worth. And one of these
days I'll stop riding.
