Forgot to mention the RGV was the last bike I had. This is my full bike history:
My first bike when I was 9yr old Yamaha ty 80
[IMG] [/IMG]
Outgrew it and got this, a montessa Cota 242
[IMG] [/IMG]
Very unreliable so I saved up and got a Yamaha ty250 monoshock
[IMG] [/IMG]
When I turned 16 I sold the yam and bought my first road bike, a Suzuki ts50x. Big bore kit on it so it was good for 55mph.
[IMG] [/IMG]
Traded it in at 17 to buy a Yamaha TZR 125. Deristricted to could just about manage a ton.
[IMG] [/IMG]
Passed my test and got my RGV that I posted earlier.

None of mine in a fit state for the camera.
My '96 blade is under a half inch film of filth and still bearing the scars from hitting a deer.

My '07 YZ250 has yet to be glammed up with a new sticker set. It wheelied off without me on my first excursion, far too powerful. Or to put it another way - perfect!

Just bought a little GPz 500 to rat into work on to save the blade from winter, and it'll never be pretty!

Nothing knee trembling here, but it's inability to go more than about 100mph before the wind makes hanging on difficult, suits me fine!

I just dont understand big naked bikes/hypermotards, surely once you've got to 60 in 2.something seconds you're then left hanging on while the wind tries to pull you off!

Look like a lot of fun though!

Nah, that's not till 90.

Right roads and the SM is the best machine money can buy. Gravely B roads, roads with crappy surfaces etc etc...

I only use it for loafing round lanes in Kerry, day I bought it - first "old" bike - rode it through Wandsworth one way system and down the a3 - that was interesting. C90's are a real laugh though

You need the direct link to the image file (as you had in your last post), but then to enclose it in image tags:

[ img ] [ /img ]

- remove the spaces from the above and it should work.

On the way to Barcelona from Edinburgh. It was the "Busa" drivers 60th and we had both just been made redundant a month earlier. His birthday was attended by the boss of the company, employees and soon to be redundant employees... Interesting weekend that one!

We tried to find DougBasqueMTB off here at the Spanish/French border but failed.

I need 6k miles to get my ZZR11 pask 100k... next year... Its done everything from London courier, Nurburgring to intercontinental express. Its a very faithful friend.

I'm hankering after a ZZR14....
