    Unfortunately not - the bike is for sale now and I no longer ride. Various reasons for that, but I might get an electric motorbike or something eventually for scooting around town on. The Police no longer have much of a sense of humour about speeding and given I'm speeding in any speed zone when I click it into second gear, I won't risk it. Also haven't ridden for a few years and returning riders my age are about the highest casualty rate going - I would imagine I could get myself into trouble pretty quick if I jumped on it now and went for a blat.
    If you need to contact me please email homestarrunnerau@gmail.com - thanks - Gav.

    Smart man. Where I live, there are two mountain roads just perfect for motorcycles. Unfortunately, a lot of the motorcyclists are not up to the performance standards of their machines.
    A lot of this group appear to belong to what I have named "The MLC MC", a.k.a. "Mid-life Crisis Motorcycle Club".

    To become a member, it would appear one as to be some sort of shiny-arsed academic and/or a member of a Profession, such as Law.
    The shiny, black vests, black helmets and black boots with silver chains are a dead giveaway. (Not to mention the Harleys and pretend Harleys.)

    p.s. some even wear the face masks with the skull on them.

    I know the type but I'm pretty sure they're not academics - no way an academic could afford a Harley!

    That's why I did a course at HART - I'd had a ride on a mate's Street Triple and decided that I urgently needed to upskill.

    Litre bikes will certainly wake you up.

    I have a kit heading this way soon for mine…
    Will push a lazy 6lb of boost for a while, good for 250hp on the tyre.
    I’ll leave it like that until I’m ready to fit the second stage parts, which make it good for 450hp.
    At that point I’ll be extending the swing arm a bit Karma ...
