  4. My daily is an old Cagiva V-Raptor which uses the same TL motor, albeit a little detuned & shorter geared, and what a stormer of a motor it is too.

  5. Like is an exaggeration I feel. They can be interesting as they can be pointers to a persons good taste.
    As an example bradders tank tops………

  7. Easy decision for me, I bought this back in the day and only had to sell due to divorce. The seat was a plank, but I just loved the look of the superduke R

    Loads of carbon, in fact every piece of black plastic was replaced with carbon fibre including a full undertray which looked amazing.

  17. Just found this - 748 that I’d just bought in Paris and ridden back to Blighty. 18th May 98.

    Ended up being a lovely bike after I’d cleaned it but it did blow its engine on its first trackday….
