Nail on head. By all means learn the principles of cornering but don't spend your time over analysing it when really you could just be enjoying the ride. As Rennie said, just point the bike where you want it to go and relax.

Now that sounds like a brilliant strategy!

Nice one! I like a sense of adventure. Have fun

I'm voting in.

Nice one! Enjoy

Which is exactly what I wanted mate. I've had GSXR's x2, ZX9R and Fireblades x2. At 47, it's time to experience some luxury instead of knackered wrists. So how does it compare to the sports bikes? Plenty of torque I should imagine That's the difference. Pulls from nothing. The gear change is smooth and no issues with the shaft drive , all seems well. It's very stable at speed.

It's a beaut mate, a proper find. The owner has treated it to everything with no expense spared. I'm lucky to have got such a fine example.

Yeah, really low mileage Tango. As you say, I'll be adding loads to that this year!

Thanks! Perfect for a trip to the Eifel The carbon parts are tastefully done and the previous owner has removed the baboon's arse rear light and replaced it with a K1300S item that looks so much better.

It's an itch I'm happy to scratch!

Otherwise Rob is very happy

Thanks mate. Didn't know you were on here!

Seems like an eternity ago that does, but still the best week away I've had on a bike.

Thanks guys

Just saying. If anybody noticed, I've been largely invisible over the past 6 months. In short, I've gone through a marriage breakup which involved selling the family home and my beloved Fireblade to pay the mortgage while the house was being sold. Anyway, next week I move into a flat and will have some money to spend on a new bike, so watch this space. Plenty of touring is on the cards for 2016, I need it after what I've been through.

Just do it. Life's too short.

DIY.

Bloke joins the forum yesterday and asks why people don't have a helmet/bike camera. Either he wants to sell you all one or he is a vlogger. He didn't get the response he wanted so has flounced...probably onto another forum. I don't imagine he was looking to seeing any of you at a forum meet anytime soon.

Go to the trackday and if it's too loud then go home. If not, then do the track day.

Bear in mind if you are planning to use the A29, it is closed for resurfacing between the roundabout near to Beare Green all the way to Ockley.

Sorry but your post was racist IMO. 'Speaking out' reinforces this. I'd suggest not blaming people of other nationalities and maybe looking at local/national government for the cause of the problem.
