        40 myself m8 and still as daft as I always have been, ridin bikes on the road is just as bad if not worse than 20 years ago, but on that open stretch and no cars about, heaven, but yea it does hurt more eating grit now than it used too. So saying if Ive lasted this long I take it that I deserve a decent motor (my surf) and some fun (my bikes) so if you ever see some grinnin pillock in a surf or on two wheels, could well be me.

        Cheers m8

                    right here goes:

                    Fantic cabbalero 50
                    Yamaha dt125
                    " yz125
                    " rd350ypvs
                    Suzuki RG500Gamma(absolutely mental bike)
                    " Gt750(barton tuned, swarbick pipes, jota front end, brembo brakes etc)
                    Suzuki DR600(enduro spec)
                    Kawaski GPZ1100
                    " KLR250
                    HondaXR400(stolen last april, spent the insurance money on buying my surf)

                    gotta say that the rg500 gamma was by far the most fun, the accelaration was wicked, 0-60, i think, was about 2.4secs, similair to a F1 car of the day i seen to remember.

                    keep it on the black stuff boys,

                              We replaced our V MAX with a ZZR 1100 last year and it was the worst thing we ever did the max is the best bike ever, but it was time for a change according to my other half (swine). We've also got a valkyrie which has to be the king of the tourers and I get my third 750 Zephyr this week. We restored a GSX EF and EFE last year and they were both oldies but goodies -we burnt off loads of the jelly tot boys on them last year.

                              Just sold an XJ 600 as it was very boring but had a nice GSX 750F last year which was good fun.

                              Thats only the last two years worth - now 20 years ago..........
