Lovely set of machines Jack, I imagine the "Human female" has an annoying whine tho, both my boy's had it as well, fixed it with a large helping of fuel. :D

I found Milk has very good lubricating qualities to stop the whine

Nope!

The whining will keep changing in cause, frequency, volume and duration for years, 3 human females (for 3 weeks out of 4 anyway) in my house.

Two in my house and the whining never stops. The newer model a Y2K version is probably the whiniest

 

As an aside, I was away for my annual medical for work t'other week and after the hearing test the bloke says I have some hearing loss in the higher frequency "that will be the pitch my wife speaks at" says I....Mr Politically Correct was not at all amused

Lovely bikes man . Anybody know why the SRX's had a decal on saying "Light Sports" ?  Bloody things weigh a ton !

172kg wet... That's not heavy!! My FJ weighs 266kg and that was initially put out as a sports bike!!

Probably light sports because it's only a 600?
