  1. chopper pilot uses hands and feet to talk.
  2. welcome morris.
  3. IV'E done 286 k on 15 litre tank,filling taking 14.4 litre. is this down to a more efficient exhausting system? less db = fuel efficiency? Xtra power - db = fuel efficiency still lurnin.
  4. water cooled before its time. [beer cooled rider did this on bmw rally]
  5. time..when i was young my slippers were red,i could clik my heels over my head, now i am older my slippers are black, i walk down for the paper ,and puff my way back, i sit at the table and read the obits, if my name is still missing i know i'm not dead, so i have a good breakfast,and go back to bed.
  6. While riding on clear rode after after passing some traffic, picked up pace conditions seemingly good road ahead free,into a right hander at 110 k to a incline, noticed man standing on side of road up ahead about 35 metres away,just as mind was processing the thought. why would would this bloke be standing there with his m/cycle,strange place to pull over.then why am i sliding up the road face down watching my bike sliding up to impact into his..well he'd come down leaving a trail of oil from crankcase which brought me down. we were both 300k into a trip from homes 250k apart, and both had converged into a well known m/cycle route to add pleasure to our ride and avoid motorway. my bike 2500 k old. his a very nicely restored 74 900 ss ducati. [when you ride motorcycles, you can expect anything to happen] and probably will,you can take every precaution under the sun. but shit still happens.
  7. time to give up riding hogs for this dude.
  8. the point should be given to me. as mine was stolen, or withdrawn.[etiquette] ? quote=Nogbad,Nov 2 2005, 08:38 PM] Fortunately, no one ever really knows what I want to say..... 65693[/snapback]

  12. you've said it.
  13. i must say you are spot on. though i own a modern,smooth,right through the rev range,powerful motorcycle.ie cagiva x tra raptor, with precise handling,braking etc. i still yearn for something, and get a great buzz every time i ride my muzz 660 traveller,with vibes,inperfect handling,and somewhat lack of power. i don't know if its nostalgia or what,my age and what iv'e ridden most of my life. or perhaps i do miss the fingers going numb.but i've enjoyed the rides done recently on v11s.maybe perfect m/cycles become boring.as they are not what we really yearn for. [but the challenge, and nostalgia of days gone]
  14. yes true van. they are a delicous looking i have actually never seen one in flesh.dont know of any in aus! maybe we can get a aus tenni owner to appear. can you inform me how many were produced. ciao.
