viragos are wayyy better!! (I dont care what anyone else says lol). I'd rather push one of them hard and have fun flicking, than a sport and end up in a ditch before i got past half throttle
but the way my finances are, I will prolly end up with a 100-250 as my next bike. lololol |

Was a passenger on a harley the other day, I forget the exact type but that wasn't bad, not as noisy as I thought either.
Debating my bike licence more and more these days. |

"What's all this about shorties needing cruisers? I'm 4'10"petite female & ride a Kawasaki ER6F. "
Height is not the issue, its your inside leg that determines what you can ride. At 5' and with short legs i am limited as to what i can ride. Tanks are too wide, clutch is too far so can't reach it etc.. |

I've got a Raleigh and want to know if I'm entitled to a leather body warmer, with 'Cousin you only see at weddings and funerals of Anarchy' written across the top, with a picture of the grim reaper holding a scythe and a blackjack.
As I'm of small build, I may need to get a jacket with extensions either side to write this on. |

Mine would be in danger of flying off and landing on the windscreen of a car behind, causing a lot of upset and shock to the driver, when what appears to be a medium sized critter suddenly appears in front of his eyes. It would all end with him veering off the road |

A Yamaha XVS 950. Its still stock at the mo. But next year going to change the exaust, air filter, put hard panniers on (as the throw overs I've got are crap). Also touting with the idea of eather putting a bat wing fairing or a set of ape hangers on. |

"I meant the gear change...not the clutch "
Cut the lever down lower the suspension, get a v twin.
Shocked how skinny most are. Vfr is a fucking boat though even with the V4 set up cause of side mounted radiators.
Does me your legs stay dry though as they got about 5 inches of fairing to hide behind |

It was the later ST1300 they withdrew because of an incident but one local officer I spoke to told me he had not been able to get the ones they tested to do I unless they did something really stupid. |

Yeah know a guy at work with one who doesn't exactly take it slow when he uses it for motorway mile munching.
Pan euro in full battenburg livelry with blue lights ad a blood biker would be my favorite volunteer role.
Think I'm gonna seriously look into blood biking after the winter need to get some advanced rider courses done in the meantime |

Ahhhhh ok I stand corrected, I miss read R34 for R32!, apologies.
I delt with a new skyline the other day, she was puffing black smoke on boost so the boost must have been wound right up, and it had been wrapped chrome, looked terrible!! It was quick but I still did him!
I will admit a tuned R34 will give the 600cc boys a lot of problems but any 130bhp+ litre bike should do it on the straights |

You pretty much hit the nail on the head!, I'm a properly quick rider, used to race when I was young and fit, still have a track bike, do a lot of outriding now escorting wide loads etc!. But I do love it when I pick up a decent driver in a genuinely fast car! (Chavs in clios get boring really quick!) as the fast boys are a nightmare to shake in the twisties, and I really have to concentrate and ride to the top of my abilities to get rid of em, I was chased for about 12 miles in the Summer by a mclaren mc12 and he was hard work to loose! |
