It is very easy to be narrowminded and shortsighted, sitting cozy in the middle of your akin, as you lot are...

I am not speculating about future or possible events, but stating facts that happened very often with me and my friends, you are happy with your toy bikes, good for you, you dont believe there is a world behond your backyard, sad, but your choice...

Talking about yourself again Antonio?

I am not speculating about future or possible events, but stating facts that happened very often with me and my friends, you are happy with your toy bikes, good for you, you dont believe there is a world behond your backyard, sad, but your choice...

Fact - your bike CAN NOT BEAT MINE AT ALL!

FFS Antonio admit defeat gracefuly, you know my bike will whoop the ass off yours and come back for seconds

 

[lordsummit]

So you aren't accepting the challenge then?
In England we have a phrase......

Chicken

Describes someone who won't put their money where there mouth is

 

[penance]

Oh, BTW, is it because you cant handle the power of modern bikes that you feel the need to make up un-believable stories?

And, i found the fault, the day is complete

 

[technobear]

My bf has one

For one minute I thought you were talking about Antonio there TB, but then daylight dawned and I realised you meant best friend

No, I meant boyfriend. Why would you assume anything else?

 

[kermit]

My bf has one - an Aprilia RDS950 something or other. Apparently it can do 180mph. It can practically break every speed limit in this country without leaving first gear. FFS why??? It can only be a most extreme form of willy waving

So , Chris , your bf is into extreme willy waving
good thing or bad thing?
discuss

 

[merlin]

Where and when? There's only one way to end this thread: a mountain road bike race pitching the Harley riding Antonio against penance and merlin riding street racers!

If we can have a race down from the top of the Pyranees or Picos, I'll bring my Seven push bike and murder the bloody lot of you

dont be silly now, it would be on the road
Now if i still had my Orange and a non knackered knee i would take you up

The jury is still out on that one. He keeps trying to persuade me to go on the back of it. I keep finding ever more colourful ways to tell him 'No'

Edited to add: It would look silly anyway. I'm quite a few inches taller than him and the rear seat is already about 6 inches higher than the front seat.

The bike does seem to be his only excess so if it keeps him happy then I'm happy.

I won't be getting a racing machine myself. Something in the 250-400cc range and entirely sensible will be my choice.

Chris
Honda 400/4 if you can find one
Or a nice Z650

 

[lordsummit]

No response yet from the portugese one

 

[penance]

maybe he is trying to find his hardley

hint:
it'll be in the repair shop

 

[lordsummit]

To loose one of those would seem to be rather careless, they're big enough

Funny thing is I rode up and over Mingus Mountain in Arizona a few years ago with tent panniers. On the side of the mountain is the ghost town of Jerome, the site of a Harley chapter get together that Sunday.

As they all passed me on the way up, blondes on the back, they all gave me a friendly whoop of encourgement.

They were less accomodating as I passed them one by one on the twisty descent

 

[lordsummit]

You see Merlin it's the torque that does it. I bet you could show a clean pair of heels to Andy's sports bike as well

 

[merlin]

I reckon my legs provide more usable horsepower than any Harley in those conditions

 

[penance]

merlin
i rekon your right

wish i could still cycle
