Yeah unfortunately that's the how much these top of the range 160bhp+ bikes with electric everything cost now, give it a few years when they're down to £10k and I'll have one

As an ultimate 'do-everything' bike it's probably the best out there - mental 170bhp supernaked and comfy euro machine capable of crossing continents.

I would be a rubbish collector, I would just want to ride a different one everyday.

You have to use them as much as you can IMO,laying them up is the worst thing,the brakes stick on,the battery dies ect

When you lay them up you prep them to avoid all that. Remove pads, drain fuel, remove battery etc.

They effectively become reversible display models.

I think Mr Bean (Rowan Atkinson) has the right approach as he uses all his hyper cars as daily drivers rather than show pieces.

True but the brake pistons still sieze,I just think it does them more harm than good

If he can afford to lay them up like this then he can afford for a mobile mechanic to come work on them lol

Went biking today, had a crash, trying to keep up with people far more experienced and just panicked.

You're on a dirt bike - going off other dirt bike youtube vids, if you don't crash, you're not doing it right

I've put together a bunch of clips of bad drivers that I recorded over the past couple of months.

Idiots. And yeah, one of the tunnels was the dartford tunnel.

Won't be long before they're a smear on the road, riding like that.

Looking at his other video, they're not on UK plates, so proably don't give a **** about speed cameras.

Hate to say it - but stuff like that just makes UK people want out of the EU even more... I know there are people on UK bikes riding like that sometimes, but people will see a foreign plate on a bike being ridden like that and think only one thing... :rolleyes:
