  1. so who's got a v11 thats done 100k miles , without cost .other than greese.? for the shaft .?
  2. ''belt good for a life time'' they've said that before.. ie 2004.
  3. its abought the same for rear tires, ain't it . 5000 km per unit.
  4. hey tex..
  5. they're talking of doing it here as i allways thoughy they would.the system is allready in place .gantrys over all major highways and motorways all around 200 km appart now only used for heavy transport movements. and yes its long been an offence to use any device to warn of speed cameras or radars here.
  6. loved the flying finn..excellent..
  7. don't argue with merc owners..it will only add to gw.theyr'as bad as guzzi owners..prepared to put up with the idiosyncracies.. iv'e been there 190 c . but got over it . now v6 3.8 five speed ute. fits the bill..
  8. [ '' but bi'll still wear one. on most rides. quote=mike wilson,Jan 27 2006, 10:46 PM] Stop your head on anything solid at ~20mph or more and, helmet or not, you will die. Helmets are good for graze and weather protection and light impacts. Against that, they add weight to your head, which may exacerbate neck injuries. m 76070[/snapback]
  9. :2c:save your money for rear tyres and belts.they are hard on these items..
  10. its full face for me most of the time,protection from the elements rain bee stings hail bugs stones i've copped them all in the face. and my last two crashes at over 100 kmph ive been wearing a full face, the last sliding down the road face first destroying the shield and wearing through fabric jacket at both shoulders on front. after hitting oil spill. as for riding position or relaxing in fall ? maybe this might apply to trials riding, but has never come in to the equation for me at touring speeds. wear good gear. and hopefully don't hit anything while bituman surfing.
  11. i should add ,i've had friends over the years that have crashed with no helmets.yes i'm that old.before they were compolsery. one died from broken neck..one from head trauma.. etc etc. do we want to ride with neck brace, rear humps,carbon helmet to shoulder supports,air fences.following trauma support units.. don't worry .
  12. ''don't crash'' wear bandanna. ? don't put to much to these findings.as varied as findings to global warming..i ride with both,full face and jet style. so..
  13. ''pete maybe its time you came out '' there could be a local that could help.
  14. when the kids have gone, and then you use your dough for selfish wants.more bikes. because you can't have too many. 7 days in a week. over 7 is in disregard to family and gw. so be happy,and ride more often. thats my selfish philosophy.
  15. yes we somehow know that .antonio. i ride motorbikes..and move my body abought for daily survival. if thats exercise..i'm doin it.
  16. if you trust a battery for over 3 years your a definit optimist.
  17. why remove the calipers..?
  18. good old american tool kit . covers the lot.

  22. well thanks for your view.i like the look as stated previously, and liked my ride on breva so hoping the griso to be just that bit better. my only problem really is the price, $23000 aus dollars is serious stuff, and don't want dissapointment. thanks for your input..ciao gazza.
