What kind of Motorcycle do you own.

I was going to buy an Enfield and tour India on it. Luckily, I realised that that would've been a dumb thing to do.

Why would that have been a dumb thing to do?

One of lifes great adventures!

Mr squirrel,

You don't want to buy that. You want to give the details to me and let me suffer for it the rest of my life!

Because I can't ride a motorbike.

Got my first Mo-cycle at 12 years old, still riding 46 years later. It ain't hard Marm's and in Bangkok it makes sense. Been riding here, virtually every day as I only use the car if I take the kids out. !2 years of riding in Thailand and not had a problem. In Bangkok I ride very carefully, in the country if condtions are right, FAST.
Once got stopped at a Cop block where they asked how fast we were going, after assurances from them, No problems, I showed them the GPS reading 287 KMH. They all laughed and waved us on.

I'm with you. The damn things scare me to death. I can ride one, but I'm too clumsy to do it on a regular basis. Sh1t, I fell off my bicycle last night and today I can barely get out of bed. I hurt all over. If it had been a motorcycle I'd be dead now.

**mrsquirrel** · 25-07-2006, 04:54 PM

No problems, I showed them the GPS reading 287 KMH.

Last time I went that fast a truck pulled in front of me and I found out how good my brakes really are.

Last time I rode a motorbike it was a 500cc single trail bike and I overestimated how far you had to twist the throttle. The thing stood up vertically on the back wheel, and then fell on my chest

Fortunately, nothing was broken, but lots of skin was cleaned off. I was uncomfortable for weeks.

**Bung** · 25-07-2006, 05:23 PM

You said we showed the cops the gps?

287 kph 2 up??

That's fast.

**buadhai** · 25-07-2006, 05:26 PM

See, Bruce, you do have something to say!

Up to 18 already.

**peterpan** · 25-07-2006, 05:28 PM

Its fast, but not two up, my ole lady doesn't want to ride with me any more

The "other" was another rider i.e. my fat pommie git mate on a Haybusa.

**Gazza** · 25-07-2006, 05:41 PM

My GF just phoned to me and told me she's got an Ichifanni. Is this a Japanese or an Italian MC?

**buadhai** · 25-07-2006, 05:51 PM

I think you'll have to scratch it to find out....

It's a hi-rider truck for me. If any of the stupid kunts pull out in front of me they will be swatted. Anyone know where to get some heavy duty bull bars?

Many very good welders out there who can build just about anything you want.

Your imagination would be you only limitation!

**Marmite the Dog** · 25-07-2006, 09:44 PM

Are big spikes legal here (a la Mad Max)?

**Sanuk Canuk** · 26-07-2006, 06:54 AM

Just sold my bike last weekend. I am bikeless for the first time in years. I think I am having postpartum depression.

Sounds like you need a snow mobile.

Bikes aren't much fun with snow chains on them....

**peterpan** · 26-07-2006, 03:09 PM

here is a nice little Cafe racer for sale, cool!

**Bung** · 26-07-2006, 03:37 PM

Guy must have found a picture of a manx norton!

I like it but it looks like a 250cc yamaha motor in it...

**mrsquirrel** · 26-07-2006, 04:40 PM

MOrelike a 400cc from an SR

**peterpan** · 26-07-2006, 06:34 PM

^ yr right Mrs Q, you know fuck all bout most things but you know your bikes, Its based on a Yam SR 400

**mrsquirrel** · 26-07-2006, 06:42 PM

Most likely pre-96/97 since it has a drum brake.

Can't remember when disks came in exactly sometimes in the late 90's

**Bung** · 26-07-2006, 08:52 PM

So that means it would be a slow joke to ride?

Maybe fun in the soi's?
