Nice! I do believe that model and that colour scheme was one of my bedroom pinup bikes as a kid.

Or mythical magical 3pot machine of dreams from Hinkley maybe?
Seriously I've had bikes up to 110bhp ish, and ridden a couple of bikes with a bit more power still, Blackbird/CBR954RR.
I never found much over 100ish mph on uk roads necessary or relevant to my needs. I've never had a bike that was too underpowered to overtake safely, and I never found the need to be able to crack a throttle open at 130mph and out accelerate plain slow sluggish bikes under 150bhp on a straight or feel like I have a huge dong by doing so.
I've struggled with the concept that a pretty average at best road rider could be quicker point to point within the limitations of road riding and retaining your license on a 200bhp bike than a 100bhp bike or even a far lower powered bike.
When you see two up CB500's banked right over scraping the pegs on the twisties, and passing 04 Fireblades etc, you think what is all this extra power doing for people?
I do firmly believe that if you take away all the electronics on newish 200bhp bikes, that they would be far slower and harder to ride fast than a lower powered bike like say a GSXR750 SRAD, and give you no more enjoyment at best? |

Putting a big fuck-off grin on their faces
I'm having a hoot on the "mythical, magical 3 pot machine of dreams from Hinkley", but took the Fazer out for a quick blast the other day and that rush is just addictive! Whereas with the Striple I'm normally seeing speeds around 90 to a ton, the Fazer just steams past 120 in the blink of an eye and keeps going I ain't knockin it. ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017
