That sounds like a wager to me.

Give me a chance to get to my private max speed test road and I'll let you know the indicated top speed. The table so far: Hornet 600= indicated 150 Aprilia RSV = indicated 172(takes the reading from the rear disk directly so is much more accurate than japanese speedo's) 33bhp GSXR400 = indicated 120

I think the official top speed is 140 ish.

I was under the impression the swap was taking place around 2011?!

Looks cool.

Get them out, I think baffles should be outlawed, straight through ftw.

Yep, I got the same thing, they didn't have any bits for my hornet trackbike or the 'storm that I wanted though.

Pah, yellow is fastest.

Looking good though sparks.

Karma!

Takes up less road space, so helps ease congestion though.

9k at the moment, and it's a 98.

It's not coming into affect, someone mis-read the budget report, it isn't happening, the duty's staying static until 2009 then increasing in line with inflation.

I thought the same thing, but it isn't happening.

Fit manual CCT's to stop it happening again. You just have to remember to adjust them at each service.

My 3 points and 60 quid made zero difference to my premiums thankfully.

I find the storm super comfortable to be honest, I'm not short either.

I do think the pegs should be further back though, they are in a bit of a weird place IMO.
