Surprised the hammer doesn't get a little steamed.....

My Hyperpro one has been on for years and only ever touched when I was trying the settings... Been on +4 for years now. Sorry no idea about greasing it but mine doesn't seem to need any or maybe I'm distantly related to Luigi in Mandello? Cheers

Took mine into work on Friday. Bloody hell, zero to 2 degrees on the Longwarry Flats was BRUTAL. Couldn't get my helmet off at the servo as hands wouldn't co-operate, so the re-fuel took a bit longer ha ha. Anyway, it was a lovely 20 degrees for the ride home and even managed to get round the four wheeled fun barriers to ENJOY the twisty bits.... Cheers

Good luck and welcome mate. Cheers Ps would luv a mini me Green V11 Sport to go with my big un...

Italian tune-ups have been known to work wonders.....

Heh he. I got to ride a mates PE400 ( detuned mx for enduros ) and that was a torque monster with quite the Dr Jeckyll and Mr Hyde personality too.... Great times!

Ha ha My CR 125 motocrosser was the same... Nothing and I mean nothing below 7500 then all 20 horsepower at once thru to 10,500 ... Doesn't sound like much but it only weighed 80 kilos and I would've been 10 stone wringing wet back then too. Loved it! Geez I would've loved to have had a go on a TZ back in the day as no way in Hades I'd fit on one now!

Mate, down here Rough as guts is being polite.... Shiraz time by the way ... Cheers

Very true mate! I burn by the light o the Moon....so no open top motoring for me! Cheers

The V100 in blue looks really good. In fact I think the model looks better all in one colour like this but the blue suits it. Cheers

It is beautiful isn't it... The Countach was my poster car as a kid though. Funny you mention pricing, I remember seeing a Ferrari Dino ( the original 6 cylinder one ) that was almost affordable many many moons ago and thought ....should I? Rationality prevailed and I realised I couldn't afford to maintain it! Jeezuz I'd probably still be living on cheese and crackers and cheap red now, and I'd never have been able to indulge my two wheeled obsession. But every time I see a photo of one....Or read Peter Egans tale of driving one cross country in winter something in me stirs.... Cheers

Rode in that sort of weather a few times as a teenager and still the thought of black ice gives me the jitters! As a silly ole git now.... no way in hell. Thankfully, we don't see it here, unless you go looking for it in the high country in winter. Cheers

I remember taking a mates 1700 Kawasaki cruiser for a spin a few years ago and being a bit intimidated at the size of the bloody thing at first.Then when I wobbled outa the driveway looking for the footpegs behind me...It must have been a sight. I did get the hang of it after a few minutes acclimatisation but they're definitely not my cup o Darjeeling! Another thing was how such a big motor could feel like a bloody 250.....Any trace of character completely removed! Cheers

Sorry fellas, but I'm with Phil on this..... It's either two wheels or the car with four! Cheers

He does doesn't he.... But how could you do that to a greenie...or a V11 for that matter?? Sidecar I mean!
