    When in motion, certes.
    Certainly thirsty. I never got more than 120 to reserve on the old
    B12, with a worst of ~80: this one will do 100 on a really good day,
    but I've had only 65 a couple of times. I don't know the exact spec
    of the engine, but it is a bit of a brute and may well have GSXR cams
    in it. Goes well, mind ;-)

    Maybe you could strap a fuel can on the back?

    Full sized beer barrel (polished, natch) as a fuel tank, I think.

    I, of course, am delighted to see said gentleman giving said action to
    said teenage daughters.

    Huh well mine is certified buggered around with big time and gives 149
    miles at 70-90 speeds. Be worth a dyno run to see if yours is running
    rich. We have had this conversation twice before mind.

    As the Holeshot stage3 makes over 140 rear wheel ponies for under a
    grand I suggest this is quite sufficient. Took the B12 out for a run
    today, if I had any more power I'd want it inside ZX-10/Gixxer type
    chassis.

    You're not the first and you will not be the last.

  10. In uk.rec.motorcycles, Wayne King belched forth and ejected the
    following:
    I dropped my R1 when I'd done less than 800 miles on it.

    Hmm, my best was writing off a GPX600 within about 40 miles and one hour
    of buying it.

    I'm sure I've told this before, but I did a grand's worth of damage to
    my Firestorm within a mile and 3 or 4 minutes of picking it up brand new
    from Tinkler's in Norwich.

    Consenting anal I hope. Lots of burds TIUTA y'know.

    You would want to put things back
    I don't think you can unfuck an arse.

    but you can't and nothing you can do can wipe that
    If this was for real, you'd have snapped some pics and posted them as jpegs
    so we could decide that ourselves.

    Well it's not like that with my bike is it, a
    Nope. It's a bike that's been repaired. I know, I repair the things.

    Outlook express is still the most popular reader, even on this NG. I, and
    the majority of others who use it, don't seem to have any problems with it.

    HFM? Last time I did this it was a fiver for a lever and another one
    for the paint. Tenner.
    Just like houses, you're not in negative equity until you want to sell
    it on. A scrape doesn't matter a ****, really. I'd rather put the
    230 quid in the tank.[/QUOTE]

    It gets soggy in no time.

  17. Fairy Nuff. If you learn how to use it properly (basically, by ignoring
    all the Outlook defaults), yeah, it works. But there are so many better
    alternatives out there.

  18. Oh, I don't know. You certainly didn't have a working-class
    upbringing[1]. Are you claiming to be upper-class? Are diplomats
    upper-class? And Charterhouse must be "old school" surely, or I've
    misunderstood the term most of my life.

    [1] I'll forbear...

    Yeah but it has changed since you were a lad. See, now it is all about
    socio economics and stuff and not selective breeding at all, this is why
    you are now working class immigrant cum and no longer a respected
    scientist.
