I got pulled over lately. TBH i was slightly speeding. a couple of boy's got out of the unmarked car and proceeded to question me (interrogate). Obviously my substantial Irish charm won out and they let me off with the speeding. ( they didn't have proof). But what i did get out of them is that they try to stop bikes more because of drug trafficking. According to the boys a not of drugs are transported in backpacks on bikes. So when they see a biker with a backpack they automatically assume ur transporting the wacky backi or whatever.

Boom! that was my head exploding.

Sounds like a great trip. I wish i had a life to go on trips like those... unfortunately until my 3 sprogs are grown up Im out of the loop.. 15 years or so and counting. Enjoy your trip.. and think about us poor saps that can't go.

We have a car too but Im not allowed drive that.... long story. Jesus id be happy with just the winter gloves at this stage.

I only have summer gloves so the cold is friggin killing my hands. i'm not ashamed to admit it but I've cried getting off that bike.

I'd love some peace and quite. (3 kids)

Only a woman would have thought of that,,, I love it.

to put his hangover food into'

Its definitely the wettest summer I've seen. i'm sick of getting wet all the time. somebody should tell that big golden ball in the sky that we deserve a little heat now and again. Back at home i have to wash the bike every week because its manky come Friday. i'm one of those guys who likes to keep his bike clean. i paid alot of money for it and she gets me to work every day. Its the least i can do for her!!

Hey all.... Im currently in California at the moment training for work. the weather here is seriously hot.... but my god its like biking heaven. the locals here say that the winter weather is like our summer but with no rain. The bikes out here are something else... mainly all I've seen are tractors but they are all immaculate. few sports bikes but not much. Moral of the story.... mother nature is ripping us off in Ireland & the UK.

I agree,, but apparantly its the law or something. But seriously i think the bike is more dangerous restricted. I've been restricted since march and have another year and a half to go , really cant see myself sticking with it.

Ha lets just say i almost pooped myself after i said"lets see what this baby can do". i have since restricted it. it not bad restricted but so much more of a beast full powered.

Thanks lads.

Hey All, Fraid i've moved on from the Yamaha Came across this suzuki GSR600, 2007 and only 9600 klms on it. Full powered and also have the restrictor ECU with it. Stored in a garage at all time's and only driven in dry weather. The guy that had it took my bike against it so he can ride whenever he feels the urge. I just could'nt pass it up. Piccy. I may have changed the bike but i've grown attached to this forum so if ye'll have me i'll stick around. There's a few yammies out there i still have my eye on.

That's a real nice looking bike. well wear. here's to having some nice weather. I got caught in a shower yesterday that was so heavy the rain came down the inside of my visor.

Wow! some people have alot of time on there hands.

Here in Ireland you can take the test on a restricted bike or anything under 33bhp. kearnsy, €275 sounds about right. you won't get it much cheaper than that, especially with the f1 cert. all the insurance comp recognise it.

I had an off nearly 20 years ago now. like cynic i was only doing about 30mph. i was wearing a helmet and good gloves, jeans and hoodie. i broke my hand and got some serious road rash on legs and back. this was enough to put me off bikes for the next 15 years. thankfully i came back a couple of years ago. i would never ever go out again without all the gear on.

Whoooweee thats some yoke!!

YEAH!! ITS REALLY NICE,,,, WHY ARE WE SHOUTING??

Congrats mate!!!! I'v been married for 6 years now ( or is that 26 i can't remember )

Hey all, thinking about getting a t-shirt,, any reports from someone with the t-shirt>>> Are they cool or wha?? Funds are low at the mo so don't wanna be splashing the cash unless i'll be happy with it. Anyone willing to model their t-shirt ( in an un-gay fashion) paardon the pun cheers

I heard that cider has the same effect, any truth in that rumour......

Looks a bit weird at night. did you do any day time clips?

I must say that is nice. i have my eye on a XJ6 for my next bike but that's a serious contender also. are they 600cc?
