I hope Cal stays at Tech3 rather than going over to Ducati. Tech3's a much better place to be

Later revealed as a hoax, Mackenzie's account was hacked ;) Still think Rossi will return to Yamaha, even if I wish he'd stay put and Cal get the Yamaha ride instead!

Mate of mine has an original R6 (owned from new) with 180k on the clocks, does 100 miles a day commute all year round, still going strong. Dont think anything has ever gone wrong with it, nothing engine or transmission wise anyway :cool:

Personal experience with the 1050s and 675s, the 675 just falls into corners and is generally ridiculously easy to throw around. Point it where you want and it will follow your lead - such a sorted chassis and the motor is very enthusiastic, punches well above its weight IMO. The 1050 by...

First bike I had was a thumping great 1000cc (ok, 950cc) twin. If you are destined to get into trouble you'll get into trouble - you are the one controlling the thing, and you can get into just as much trouble on a 400 as you can on a 'thou. You have to ask yourself if you can be trusted with...

One of my mates did the exact same thing. Damp & mossy training ground, just slammed the front brake on and went right over the top and down the tarmac. Ruined his brand new Arai lid, broke two fingers and the bike wasn't in great shape either. 2 months later he passed and hasn't looked back...

Like. (except remove the silly cat-n-fiddle sticker ;))

Graphite/grey! Should really get some pics sorted out...

cool, thanks fireskull, will look into ASV as well then R5Rich - sorry, no, i should have said. Street Triple R 675

Hey all Fancy some new levers for my 675 as the standard ones are a bit crap looking. The standard levers on my KTM 950 were really nice (magura clutch & brembo brake) to the point where there was no need for after markets, so I know nothing about brands or where to look. Any suggestions for...

That carbon is ridiculously cheap :eek: I'm too used to what people who make carbon bits for KTM seem to want. I thought it'd be 2k on carbon alone! :p

No way! Quickshifter, exhaust, tonnes and tonnes of carbon, brakes, and at one point wasn't it streetfightered? New tank, lenses, numberplate mods.... hell there's 1.5ks worth of bits on my ST and you can barely even notice them :D

My guess is 17k, assuming you got the bike new for ~£10k

Well that's more than an 1198S then! :D :D

Tot up all those receipts and you could probably buy an 1198S! :D (Still, very nice :)) In fact, about how much has this project cost you?

Bet the few people here moaning have done some overtakes like that in their time ;) Stay safe, remember you can't enjoy it if you're in a wheel chair! Nice bike/vid!

Congrats :)

KTM Superduke R - a real mans bike, and in another league to the Jap-crap naked bikes (FZ1 etc ;))

Because quads are absolutely bonkers and no one has the required self control to be sensible on one :D

The Yam, but both are dull as dishwater :)
