  7. yes mate that will be lovely, I did a session on my mates 2004 GSXR750 and it was mint! Other than needing a slipper clutch, as there was so much leant over braking. It was brilliant and not trying to ride me.

    the r1 was great but wish they made a 750cc version with the cross plane engine

  8. I nearly bought a mint gsxr 750 that I saw at a dealers. I went over to the sales manager to tell him I wanted it but he was on the phone. I waited for him to finish and he told me the guy on the phone just put a deposit down on it :weary_face:

    I don’t know what’s going on with Yamaha. We’re kinda expecting an R9 at some point, which ought to be mint. But they seem to be leaving it quite late if they’re gonna actually make it this century. Still, there’s plenty of good bikes to choose from.
     
  9. I have started an affair with an MV F3 RC...... it's got a bit messy as she is bleedin awesome.
    Made me question my whole V-twin identity :astonished:

  11. as we have said many times, the F3 will make you doubt the love for v twins. But as an ownership experience the Ducati still has the edge I think. Just more premium
     
  12. This is true.
    Forks upgraded to K-tech internals, RCS-19 front mc, proper rear sets with race shift, Ohlins rear TTX and adjustable clip-ons.
    See how that works at Portimao May1-3rd.

  14. This is last November, first time on track with the MV, 2:03.50, which is a PB for me.
    Hoping the upgrades will see me break two minutes. Especially race shift, less dive on the front and some proper braking without over-heating.
