guy was revving the tits off his zx6r at the side of me the other day and got most upset when i commented it sounded like a dentist's drill...
good bike for flicking round like, but the ape is in a class of it's own imo

no brainer. :beer:

Snipper dont ask me for gods sake! I am in turmoil, after tomorrow I may be able to reveal my next steed, a guy is coming up from Bedford to look at mine and wants a part ex/swap. It could be a Busa or a Speed Triple or a K6 GSXR......who knows what will end up in my garage :lol:
