Here are MCN’s predictions for the five future Huskys:
1. Stripped down...

Shows some typcally crap road surfaces of the UK... & Trevor, shows that teachers don't always know everything even in their chosen subject [;)]

Not really Skid if you've just been knocked off... I've seen far stronger reactions...

Found this tho'...
...

A Toyota?... you sure?... looks more like a Roller to me [:D]

Apparently it was a repeat of what Rossi said to him a while ago [:D]

Despite how validly he might be miffed over the incident (he did get knocked off) I haven't actually heard Stoner "moan" about the incident yet (unlike Rossi's outspoken criticism of Elias in 2006...

... at least he was cheering him on from the sidelines...

[sure]

It looks to me in that 4th one as though "Obviously your ambition outweighed your talent"... hey, if it's good enough for Stoner on Rossi... [:D]
...

Ah, a classic example there Keslow... Stoner's had to avoid Rossi's exuberance on quite a few occasions *... this time he wasn't so lucky. Rossi's getting inside Stoner's head again (even if it...

I got so much ribbing for turning up at his farm (& race school) on my yella GS & now he's riding one!... ha ha!... did look close with that truck tho'!

pedantic_pete - "What happened?"

recovery driver - "Crap on your tyres!"

pedantic_pete - "How often do I have to do that?"

The speed was fine... it's a corner he's probably done a lot quicker & thought "that was a bit fast" & tamed it down a bit... as an everyday rider he's probably had to change his line through that...

Unlike on a track, in a road situation (esp a left hand turn in the UK) the late turn-in gives you a better view thru' the bend. He took the corner as I would on a busy road with no view ahead.
...

Well.. firstly, I was glad to see you get up at the end of it... lowsiding on a left hander (UK) can be sooo much worse.

The cause?... if the bike's the same & the riding appears to be the same...

So basically it's mostly (if not entirely) the cop's fault (if a kid had run out in the road a similar thing would have happened)... brill' [:D]

"Nobody would have noticed officer...

Maybe you can't but it's aimed at the same customers & has undoubtedly attracted some. The BMW has been made very fashionable by the Long Way Round progs but not everyone wants to go round the world...

I'm trying to work out what happened here... lack of damage debris to the bike or car... car reversing without looking I'm guessing... or some weird trick like The Lone Ranger did mounting his horse...

Naaa... he'd worry about losing his no-claims insurance on his chicken strips [:D]

Was Dunny the only one on it?

The strangth of the GBP at the moment means it's very attractive for foreign tourists... I toured Scotland 2yrs ago & in some of the bars I swear I was the most local person in them... including the...

My apologies... I thought you were talking about cost per mile... my mistake [:)]


Be honest Pat... you've used your modified horn but are fed up of people ignoring you while looking for the...

The purchase price isn't part of the mileage cost unless you run it into the ground... the depreciation is... here in the countryside my bike runs at about 30ppm including fuel, tyres, servicing,...
