    Genuinely, about 63 lol

    That’s not too bad really. I bet you can have most cars off at lights plus I bet it costs about 12 quid to fill and lasts ages

    OK Andy, will send you my email and we will keep in touch, probably Edinburgh would be better. Might be some other members up North that fancy a pint.

    As a continuation from my vaping thread, thought I would ask if there are any bikers on here and if so what you have and when you ride?

    Im an all weather biker; sun, snow, ice, hot, cold doesnt bother me. I use it as an excuse to get out and about for a couple of hours.

    Current collection is:

    Yamaha XJ 900 (used for touring as Mrs W likes this one)

    Yamaha 1000 Thunderace (good all rounder for me)

    Yamaha YZF 600 Thundercat (my preferred bike at the moment, great for throwing around country roads)

    NCX 750 (won this in a private poker cash game; ended up giving it back after a couple of weeks as although it was brand spanking new it just didnt suit my style of riding)

    Looking to pick up a Hyabusa or ZZR1400 this year as I want something a bit meatier than what I have.

    That is quite the collection mate nice one, I’m the same an all weather rider, got my trusty Yamaha xj6 would love to go bigger maybe 1000cc but I’m not the most responsible rider and would most likely kill myself the first day of owning it, could never go back to a car, can’t stand the traffic!

    On a twisty road mate I find that my Thundercat (600) outperforms my Ace (1000) simply because its lighter and easier to throw around. In a straight line the Ace is perfect for smashing down the motorway etc.

    If you look at the TT times theres not a major difference between the lap times on the 600’s compared to the 1000’s and a lot of the pro’s prefer the 600’s for riding on “normal” roads

    Me and my brother are looking at 125cc to start off with then onto for me a kawaski mean streak 1600 and I think he wants a 600cc cruiser. Any suggestions on a reliable 125cc only need them for a few months to be honest.

    Yamaha FZR600R 4JH, done the body work and paint myself aswell as the decals.

    Do you ever find the brakes a bit spongy mate? Only ask because I had to upgrade both my cat and ace as the stock ones just didn’t cut it for me

    Alright mate, when I brought it I replaced the pads and brought some race discs as I might aswell not had brakes when I brought it they were that worn, but after the disc swap and pads it stops on a dime so to speak, going with brembos on them soon as with me ragging it round the country roads thinking I’m doing the TT course every weekend I go through discs quite often, going to bite the bullet and go for some £400 discs rather than the £200 discs I’m eating through atm

    I got my motorcycle license in 2008, before that i was just driving my motocross bike everwhere, which the cops didn’t enjoy too much..

    I currently own a 2012 KTM 690 Duke-r, with all the extra parts and performance parts you can get. Didn’t use it too much last summer, got a bit bored of riding on the same roads as i have been riding on the past 15 years. Great bike, very easy to ride. My first bike was a 2009 KTM 530exc-r supermoto, sold tthat one to buy the current one in 2013. Might sell it next summer, if it’s used as little as last summer.
