Nt sure if I've seen one but my youngest son has bought one of these

Not sure how he'll make out on Dubai roads with their love of marble coverings away from the traffic lights (ooerr mum)

I wanna go LOL :smt005 :smt005
I hate it when people ask if you have a bathroom, I want to say "No we pee in the garden"

A work colleague has a SuperDuke he's looking to sell. I have to say I'm tempted...

I remember reading a write up on this, it said 'If there is a naughty step for bikes then the Duke would certainly be sitting on it'

Between Griff and myself we've just renovated one of these for one of my customers. It's got to be one of the most unforgiving bikes I've ever ridden! Like sitting on a scaffold plank, ridiculously over-geared and steers like a thing that really doesn't want to steer.

Definitely a smooth track bike as it's shit on the lumpy roads round here. You have to be on the throttle everywhere you go, such hard work.

So glad Debz got her Tuono rather than one of these when she was bike shopping. Soooooo much more civilised in every way.
