    Heh.

    My CIHAGM review:

    ZN1300 Blingchariot

    Felt surprisingly light, despite weighing more than the Wing. Quite
    sprightly through the gears, though there's not much sense of speed,
    due to the immense screen out front. No wing blast at all. Motor is
    pretty vibey, certainly more than I expected from an in-line six.

    More buttons than mine, too. I believe I described it as being built
    by someone who'd heard a description of a GoldWing over the telephone.

    Top fun, though.

    GSXR1000

    I wouldn't have one if you paid me.

    Very, very fast. Handles like it's on rails. Stops on a sixpence.
    Makes an appropriate noise, too - which was a shock.

    Only problem: it feels like you're sat on the top yoke all the time.

    Three miles was plenty.

    R1150GS

    Much as expected, handles like a dream, damned good brakes. Probably
    the most sensible bike out there for gentlemen of healthy proportions.

    Bit draughtier than I'd like.

    Mucho Grassy Arse to the three of you.

    Who won the battle of the sound systems?
    Heh :)

    Did Sir's er, "healthy proportions" not suit the riding position on the
    GSX-R?

    I only have vague recollections of it; enough to have that poxy tune
    running around my head.

    Where's my momma gone when I need her

    That's reminded me (again) of the sight of Monz going past on my Daytona at
    the BOSM... I think I used the phrase "Its like he sat down and it just got
    stuck up his arse crack and lodged there.." So get yer own descriptive
    phrase skinny-boy! :)

    That description applied to Big Tony and his RGS long before the last BOSM.

    Was that the TV series about seven children and a paedophile?
