    Driven to the spin on a trailer taken out of the cover....took a picture back into the trailer and driven home!

    LMAO.

    Only taking the piss mate, never seen a bike like it. Even after the spin all day and the savage spin back home the bike was EXACTLY like it was that morning. Mine on the other hand was in bits with bugs I have never even seen before like golf balls.

    Savage bike, love the italian job livery aswell. As I said, set of new end bars to replace the loose one and a set of stubby levers and it would be a masterpiece.

    Our two latest additions:

    2012-09-05135348.jpg

    2012-09-05135403.jpg

    2012 690 and 2007 990 :D

    We also have a gixxer 1000, a mid-make over CB400 and a wrote-off CBR250 that we're still deciding what to do with.

    Nice one PB! Love the 690, delighted for ya!!! :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 24,878 ✭✭✭✭arybvtcw0eolkf


    Sorry about the top box, I know its as ugly as hell but it serves a purpose sometimes when I want to stretch her legs :D

    BMW R1100S.

    There's been one or two minor changes since the pic was taken.

    The exhaust is a full stainless steel Laser exhaust and would waken the dead :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,340 ✭✭✭Please Kill Me

    To embed you need to load them onto a site like photobucket. Get the link for them and use the image icon insertimage.gif
    Nice exhaust on that.

    Cheers mate. Must get an account on one of those.
    Its a Laser slip on, bought it 2nd hand for a ton, 500 new!

    I'll be honest, the Conti's are working great on the bike.

    There's probably another 2k left on the rear (with a bit of luck) and I'll replace it with another Conti.

    Ah look, I know they have longevity - I'll give it that. But it sacrifices grip. I had Conti's on a Hornet 600 and I couldn't keep it upright. Changed them to Bridgestones and it was a different bike. I'll never use Conti's again. But if you (or anyone else) are happy to use them it's nowt to do with me.

    I had Contis on my XJR and they were bloody great on that bike. After 3k kms there wasn't a mark on them and never suffered with lack of grip. I'm sick of Dunlops on my 1400 wearing every time you roll the bike out of the garage...

    So I put a set of BSB Supercorsas (fvcking hell the bike is on rails!), crash bobbins all round, mini indicators on the front and changed the sprockets to -1 / +2 - its like a new bike :D

    All depends on the bike. I had contis on the GS and they're one of the best tyres you can get for it. Where before I had bridgestones, probably the worst tyres you can get for it. Trailwings, nicknamed deathwings because of their poor grip.

    Yeah, they probably suit some bikes more than others.

    Powerful sports bikes like ours would be about the most demanding on tyres - so we'd notice crap tyres more than your average biker!

    I'd like to see you corner on the auld deathwings! Think they're made out of plastic.

    I'm running the supercorsa sp (slightly softer but sane thread etc) on the r1 for fast road spins and trackdays. They are completely brilliant. Shocking in the wet though and don't last pissing time. Won't ever use anything else on that now other than maybe the r10.
    Although still think the pilot power is the best overall sports tyre for a road bike ever made
