Shame I failed my Mod 2 today!

/Like I can really afford one of those! ;-)

Love the Brutale, but still not sure on that floating rear fender, not sure it'd look that good from the other side as it has to attach somewhere. Would look even cooler without it I reckon, with number plate in the normal place maybe.
 
@ Craig321 - my instructor made me laugh today when he said you couldn't possibly ride that thing without a cape. Too true! :)

@Clov!s - A car reversed into the test centre entrance and stopped with his left indicator on. Apparently I waited too long before deciding to go around him. When I did set off, I didn't make a lifesaver. Immediate fail. Hadn't even left the test centre! Knew it at the time and it messed the whole thing up. Turned out the guy in the car was lost and was looking at a map according to one of the other students.

You can never win with some examiners. I got told I almost failed coming out of the centre because I went round some guy that had stopped at the entrance :rolleyes:.

It's preferable to a huuuuuge tail - as the number plate has to be behind the rear wheel. The dragster has it too, 'cos of the stupidly short tail. It looks ok - just keeps all the ugly stuff on one side and lets you see all the wheel :D

True, it's a nicer way of legally producing the bike, but I still think a tail tidy would be nicer with 7x5 plate.
 
He's trying to get the same sound as the prototype 1290 - but that had a wild exhaust system, separate pipes and end cans for the front and rear cylinders.


RJ's bike sounds great, but it's lost the v-twin sound, it's just all raw throaty shouting now, like the hulk gargling thor's hammer :D
 
Yeah it did, It's hard to tell but I thought it had completely separate pipes for each cylinder but looking further it does look like a single system.
