    What, the legendary trellis frame not up to the job? Careful, you'll
    upset the Ducatisti.

    I'm not sure it's as clear-cut as that. I've known owners of tourers,
    cruisers and old Brit-bikes also express this attitude.

    Me, I've owned all sorts[1] and can see the point of many of them, but
    in recent years I've very much come round to the "fast bikes are what
    it's all about" way of thinking, which leads me to believe that
    advocates of other types of biking are just wusses.

    [1] Well, several sorts, at least.

    not at all - it's just that I'm (hopefully) about to trade my only
    remaining road-going sportsbike in for something different, so I'm
    rationalising my choice ;-)

    heheh.

    As always with these things, if anything happened I would make sure
    Champ wasn't out of pocket.

    OK - I have seen both, but neither for years and years.

    Now, I could afford to do that, but I didn't find Bonwicks 10R all that
    comfy and really want a K6 gixxer thou, in that phantom grey colour
    scheme.

    Bah.

    I've never been on yours, it's the same bike though, isn't it?

    "Considerably faster" is more like it.

    Please explain; is this something you offset against your income from
    sources other than your employer.

    I'm seriously worried that I'm missing out on something here.
