Managed to lowside my Z1000 yesterday, had been on a forum run to oban and was soaked to my boxers freezing cold and not in the mood, i went into a corner and hit mud, couldnt see it it from the angle was at, only doing about 30mph,

That sucks, but it looks like you have got away with fairly minimal damage really. I know my concentration is significantly worse when soaked and freezing cold, which is why I'm mostly a fair weather biker these days

You could probably get a carbon seat unit for that?

S'me!

Oh! I haven't posted my new bike in here yet. BMW K1300S tri-colour. 2 wheels... fun in the rain.

First on the list of stuff to buy is probably a nice hugger before it's rainy season again (hah).

Once upon a time Honda made beautiful, sleek, purposeful motorcycles, nowadays not so much...

haha i thought that originally when he told me he was getting one but when i went to look at it in person it kinda grew on me (not as big and chunky as i thought) guess its a marmite bike.

plus it sounds mint nice v4 growl through the akra can. Goes like stink too

Yeah it feels pretty rapid (I test rode a couple), and - like most heavy bikes I'd hope! - feels pretty light when on the move.

Has he got the factory heated grips? The switch on those was flipping awful. One fell apart (literally, down to circuit board) on a test ride. Garage guy - not mentioning it before , but getting a bit of a moan from me - said "oh yeah they're all like it, there's an improvement coming out for that...". The bugger.

Just been refreshed after brandon cretu rode it at TT

edd1e · 27 Jun 2013 at 23:27

Don't set it on fire

Fireskull · 27 Jun 2013 at 23:30

I was going to ask stocker or superbike but then I imagine a superbike would be £25k+ second hand!
Looks brilliant!

Souleh · 27 Jun 2013 at 23:39

Superstock spec but with a brembo MC! We will go from there lol
