Do i sense a bit of pi55taking here. Would you like me to pinstripe your face red with my fist !! :grin: :twisted: :lol:

Just joking, i would like to have the wheels all black but do not really want to get them repainted, too good a condition at the mo. I think it looks good with the striping anyway. Anymore insults fire away.

A few days ago i would of accepted a good offer it was pi55ing me of so much but all of a sudden things began to come right thanks to maplins, so now its a no. If someone offered me 6000 i would not accept. One day i will be buying a ducati though as i still have your old 853 in my head. Like your new rvf by the way, did you swap with abrmoto for the duc in the end. So glad you did not break it and it's gone to a good home.

Micro,

Yes the 853 is still in the 400GB family, is at Moto-Corse being tickled as we speak ;) Was not a great Duke fan till about 18 months ago, now have 2 and poss another soon.....make up your mind from that how good they are :!:

Micro, Yeah there's just something about dukes that gets under your skin, not the quickests bikes in the world by a long shot but great to ride, and you just cant beat the sound they make, rattles and all. I did/still do love the carbon look but my next one will have to be red, and there will be another one. That was one of the plans if i were to keep it, paint the carbon red with the little bits of carbon showing like the 996R's.
Im looking forward to seeing what aly does with it, you just know he's gunna make it just that little bit more special. If i could talk the misses round to selling the GSXR id buy another one in a shot, another 853 if one came up or a 916 with a 955 kit :pray:

Did someone mention ducati ? Hey Ali, those heads of mine funnily enough, guess what they were cut for ? yep 955
That old engine of mine gets more and more mysterious each week. this chris may whatever confirmed its one of his early racer engines, also my cases were 916 SP cases too which we didnt know.

It failed its MOT on wednesday though, something to do with 109db with the full 52mm system.
