Have to say that Motorbikes are Top Banana ;D
Used to have a zzr600 which was new. Got 159mph on the speedo once 8)

1st bike I crashed was a Honda C90. doing 45mph and pulled the front brake like a bicycle, on gravel, slid out from underneath me faster than an oiled up Kylie ;)

got kids, hence no bike at the mo, had yam fzr 600 and cbr 600 and then gsxr1100l drag bike (Gav I used to do 1/4 mile onthat in 10.43!!) bikes are awesome for speed mate, cars cant compete with the power to weight ratio!!!, will have another bike when me lad starts school next year then one of me golfs will go, and hopefully will have a aircooled for rainey days!!

Gaz 8)

oh yeah the 10.43 time was when i run in the streetfighters magazine 'straightliners' series in 2001/1 (only on local meets!)
