I was following Gary Inman's build in Performance Bike and always thought that would be a wonderful bike. Fucking awesome.

I miss PB....

Yes. Insane. Talk about vision!

Very cool - and perhaps the greatest sounding 4 cylinder bike engine ever.

Saw this and thought of 36*18

Scooters sensible in town? Me thinks not...

Ha. I'm always sensible. It's also been dropped from Honda current models, so replacing it is going to be a bugger.

Today was a success, romper bought!

hump or no hump jambon?

No hump, but after talking to the seller having a spine protector seems sensible, so semi-hump.

Is it comfortable on the bike?

Will the protector fit under the leathers?

Yeah it is comfortable on the bike, certainly more so than standing up. The spine protector does fit underneath. You might not be able to make it out but the suit isn't in mint condition, I think an element of shit-kicker is important with most things motorcycle related.

The only bad thing that happened on my CBT was that I turned up an hour early, desperate for a dump, and only a Co-Op was open, had to buy some bog rolls and shit in a hedge

Not meant to stand up in the romper suit.

Found this cheap little derny style bike. Its £40 and needs an engine rebuild but could be an amusing form of transport.

with the rest of the trainees looking on watching the steam rise?!

Quite right mate. In my experience, even if they are in mint condition they have a tendency not to stay that way long....;)

Race between Ferrari Testarossa, Yamaha Fz 750 and Yamaha Yzr 500 - YouTube

I went to the bike show today. Some nice shiny things but a bit disappointing overall, I would have been annoyed if I'd actually paid for a ticket.

any pictures from the show you want to share with us.
