My Kawasaki ZR7s that I brought home today.

I've still got this one as well my Suzuki SFV650 Gladius

How is this version?

Two couples were playing poker one evening. Jim accidentally dropped some cards on the floor. When he bent down under the table to pick them up, he noticed Les's wife, Sue, wasn't wearing any underwear under her dress! Shocked by this, Jim upon trying to sit back up again, hit his head on the table and emerged red-faced. Later, Jim went to the kitchen to get some refreshments. Les's wife followed and asked, 'Did you see anything that you like under there?' Surprised by her boldness, Jim admitted that, well indeed he did. She said, 'Well, you can have it but it will cost you £200.' After taking a minute or two to assess the financial and moral costs of this offer, Jim confirms that he is interested. Sue told him that since her husband Les played golf Friday afternoons and Jim didn't, Jim should be at her house around 2pm next Friday afternoon. When Friday rolled around, Jim showed up at Les's house at 2pm sharp and after paying Sue the agreed sum of £200, they went to the bedroom, and closed their transaction, as agreed. Jim quickly dressed and left. As usual, Les came home from golf at 6pm and upon arriving, asked his wife, 'Did Jim come by the house this afternoon?' With a lump in her throat Sue answered 'Why yes, he did stop by for a few minutes this afternoon.' Her heart nearly skipped a beat when her husband further enquired, 'and did he give you £200?' Sue, using her best poker face, replied, 'Well, yes, in fact he did give me £200. Les, with a satisfied look on his face, surprised his wife by saying, 'He came by the golf club this morning and borrowed £200 from me. He promised he'd stop by our house this afternoon on his way home and pay me back.' Now THAT, my friends, is a poker player

It's a 20mph limit Marcel , even your barge would exceed that .......

Or, this?

My Suzuki SFV 650 Gladius A day out to check out all the so called wild fires.

By some miracle I actually have a picture of my frankenbike ... you can all wash your eyes out later if you don't like that style.

There was so many locations for pictures...no time...

Reminds me of this story...lol...had this huge Rottweiler at the time , I was 20 maybe...we all came to the conclusion that this thing couldn't live in the house anymore...lol...it would slobber at the sight or smell of food...so I decided to build a dog house with a few friends ...inside the garage and my Father notices and called the police...lol...i remember the police knocking at the door..lol...the dog was tided to the back of a snowmobile and when I opened the big door...the dog was dragging the back of the sled trying to get at the police man...they were in shock...lol....anyway after talking to the police with my mom..they figured out we weren't doing anything wrong..and it was my father over reacting... Anyway my father kept the car for many years after...it was still practically still new...think it had like 20 thousand km on the odo...never winter driven...he would get my mom to license and insure it every year...and I was the only one he would truss driving it..lol...my brother was already into shit back then...being suspended at school for selling weed on a few occasions....lol...

on a trailer, or pulling?

I saw one yesterday, it sounded like it was eating its own valve train, apparently it’s normal. There is no way I would ever buy a bike that sounded like that.

Bike ran over some banding and the headstock snapped.

That does look pretty insane.

Totally forgot to show you all the indian dealer right has your pulling in into sturgis....Indian stand alone dealer...its huge. The last pic..is the shed they use to show the new motorcycles for sales...didn't get a pic of the main building...

Dolly's custom casket....

They are just pretenders.

I thought that was the joke

I've watch many serial killer interviews from jail over the years...do you think this could be some drug crazy individual ?....Im wondering

Hahahaha!!!

Sweet Ride @Renegade ....

Oh dear.

Needs a nice towbar.

Didn't mention it yet...one of two reason we cut the trip short...Dan's mother is on her death bed at the moment getting shot up with morphine...figure a day or two..that's about it....she had chemo about 6 months ago..but now the cancer has returned with vengeance...spread to her brain and everything...she 83..so...kinda of a normal age to died. Anyway this morning...going through pictures on my phone..does anyone have any idea how many pictures and video can a Samsung phone hold ?....lol. Looking through old pictures I found a few goodies..lol...from my old town were I got my seat bag stolen...cunts..lol. Found and old pic of are residence in Ont...has the house looked back then.. I remember when I first started making new friends and could speak English well enough....lol...the first thing they always asked...are you guys rich or something...lol. I'm imbarace to say my Father was always a Ford man and died has a Ford man...lol...he had just bought this land yath Lincoln continantal ..79 built blast edition 2 door in navy blue and white with a fake convertible top...the thing had 5 hastray and five cigarettes lighters in everyone...lol...this inside was dark blue not like the one in the video. Just like this one. Me and my brother would eventually dispy with hatred this car... After my Father had this stroke ...part of his reasoning or logical parts of the brain were destroyed...he came totally obsessed with this car...here's a old pic of my 2 causine Francis from piont Edward Sarnia...he managed to find room in his fathers truck and brough the bike with him for the summer...I was 16 at the time and had just bought my first street bike..from my uncle Alvin..think I paid 1500 bucks at the time..I made a deal with my mom..if she loaded me the money...I would spend the summer working at the fish plants and ride home on weekends....( fist summer when we moved back to N.B..and when I ran into Dan..lol )....you can see the car in the back..anyway got this garage built just for storage for the car...and we were banded not to use the garage or even go inside...he had to be there with his power chair and watch to make sure we didn't touch the thing...lol. Here's my father checking out my first Harley in 09... Here's my causine Francis from a few years ago when we stopped in Sarnia for a visite with my mom....he took me for a ride in his VW dune buggy....he sure had a pretty girlfriend at the time...I forget her name...lol.

There are a couple of MV's that frequent the bike nights around here and they both sound rough as rats which apparently is normal for them. I wouldn't ride anything that sounded like that same with the Ducs and their dry clutches, I am sure that are wonderful bikes on the move but I just couldn't bear that clattering.

I could accept that, if the roads were ever resurfaced, but it’s 10 years since anyone has done that …

Ducatis always worried me with the dry clutch

That’s better, more forest and less of the no lean barge

Big Black Thing blocking site of the Trees.

A Harvester

It’s a special mixture of cooking fat and madras curry.

I was tempted, I’m fairly tall ( although not as tall as Marcel or Bucky obviously ) and probably the XR would be a better fit with a bit of fiddling, but for some reason I do enjoy the naked bikes.

Don't beleive anything Buckster post from FB....he's full of shit...lol. Not to mention how many curbs he hit with the thing in that 700 milles...lol

Up to you, surprise us.

Can you ship a motorcycle without registration out of the UK ? Ok this morning I'm willing to make a deal...I promise not to dirty anyone's threads and keep my shit to my things...if you remove the post limits ? Has a bonus...with my heavy connections to the biker world Ill be willing to take you on has a lone wolf prospect...and just maybe let you be my FB friend again...do you know who ive been chatting with since sturgis ? Who knows I just might introduce her to you maybe...lol...yes I made 3 new FB friends over this trip... Got to ask....is this marcel character kinda of and internet star in the UK ? That Hildo looking guy from England looked at me kinda funny when I introduce myself at the bar where we were having super ? Here's and interesting video..a little long..but it kinda explains how long native Americans have been living here in New-Brunswick...Basically has soon has the glaciers melt away... @Buckster...I find history fascinating...

After now having done a longer trip on the bike here's some brief findings... It's got stacks of torque, makes it very easy on single carriageway A roads, towns and twisties, pulls like a train tips into bends like it's reading your mind, it's effortless, on rails, no wobbles and feels like cheating On bigger roads such as dual carriageways I don't like it much at all, high frequency vibes through the pegs and seat (not a huge issue) the throttle grip spring is too strong, makes your hand hurt trying to sustain a constant speed for long periods, it's also far far far too sensitive the tiniest of movement will cause the bike to slow and speed up making it feel like the fuelling is very bad on rougher roads, especially around 65 mph/4,000 rpm, I'm fairly sure it's not fueling as if I concentrate on locking my hand position it goes away It's nice to have aftermarket exhausts for some street cred, but on long journeys the drone is tiring and a nuisance, adding to rider fatigue This is a new one for me, I'm 5'7" (and a half ) and 12 stone dripping wet, so with the adjustable seat set to the middle position I'm finding my legs too cramped and it was causing knee pain, on a good note and can get both feet flat on the ground, I've only every been able to do that on my V-Max, ridiculously I may have to raise the seat for my loft 5'7" (and a half ) height but then the bars are going to be lower than I'd like and it already has bar risers fitted. I can get 58mpg if I ride at a steady 65mph which is good Over all it's a fun bike to ride through the twisties, puts a shit eating grin on your face but commuting or long distance is very disappointingly tiring and strained and I think I would most certainly opt for the car to do that If I can't fix these things I will most likley offload the bike and get something like an NC700/750 or a cruiser (yes I know I take the piss but I do like them really), I found my V-Max very comfy and solid even in the worst of side winds, just it's pathetic tank capacity and thirsty engine makes it impractical for anything but posing and drag racing, oh and putting me in a wheelchair for 2 months lol, I don't need all the power/torque of the CBF, even on my 400 scooter nobody overtook me except for the flat out hooners. The bike is heavy, oddly heavy in that wheeling it around is hazardous, I never had that issue with my Caponord (but that was 23 years ago) but there aint bugger all I can do about it's weight Maybe, a set of original end cans, one of those throttle cruise control things (not really cruise control, just a plastic grip thingy), also changing the cogs might help, 1st and 2nd gear are almost redundant, so perhaps a smaller front and larger rear might make it more relaxed riding PIC for attention

We used to laugh at Pete when he used to ask about the weight of any bike , but that's me now as well. I really struggle to move a heavy bike around. It's fine when you're riding but manoeuvring it around is fraught at times. I can't believe how I used to throw my KTM 950 around but that sure wouldn't be happening nowadays

Obviously shipped it over for some looooooooong straight roads , coz that thing ain't gonna be much cop in the bends

Just tell people it is homosexual, it swings the other way.

You shouldn't blame yourself. Surely the urges were dormant but already present in his mind for years.
