This has not just gone off topic in a spectacular way it now has other tits in it. I like most men love boobies but I think they should be left in the NSFW section ;)

Wouldn't want to leave the page open and your young child seeing them or for that matter your jealous wife :shifty: :shifty:

Ok time to 'fess' up...

Two boys from a professional outfit from Poland bought my beemer scrapper for 150 more than I bought it. Exporting it to europe they told me they'll end up with 400 profit when they fix it up. Good riddance to the lemon!

What to do with the cash plus the extra pennies... well I couldn't leave it there for that price could I?!


Not an r1 but a pretty clean fz1n. Runs lovely. Bit snatchy on open from closed but if you ride properly you don't even notice it to complain. I love it! Nice amount of power for me and good delivery of the power. Although I only really properly rode above 8k rpm controlled and not really pinned it (no 130mph limited roads ;)). Touched the footpegs once or twice at low(ish) speed corners and roundabouts trying to fix the wear in the middle of the tires. I'm loving it... blipping on downshifts and not a million miles away from knee down altho I'm keeping my knees up and definitely my speed and revs down as it wants to pull wheelies above 8k in 1st 2nd and if at the back of the seat 3rd too. Motto is go slow and get the technique right...

On a downside I've seen 2's up overtaking on blind bends and a few people who were about double the speed limt haul past me, seems bonkers to me but naybe their roadcraft is lightyears ahead of mine....

P.s. you cant shout or tell me I'm ded as the fz1n is a keeper. Fitted a scotoiler and a charging point and may invest in a fender extender and a taller screen for the FR trip in summer.
