the happiest day of my life, so far.... Part 2 (Final Part)

[18aprilia]

As I start to pull away the first thing that hits me is how responsive the bike is.

awiff of throttle sends the little vfrs heart pumping. I give it what it wants and it shows me just what kinda ride i'm in store for. I hold tight and try to look as if im not fazed... but i am. it's awsome.


As the revs shoot up to 11k I decide to brake... ''I spot a sign for brighton'' cant miss that, the brakes are nice bit need some new pads within the next 2 weeks.

I deicde to stick to the speed limit... it doesnt last long, yet again the little vfr is begging for me to show the rest of the road users just what sorta power it has. i give it what it wants and rapidly twist the throttle right back a sudden jolt of power sends me flying down the dual carrageway.

I look down at the speedo 110mph, ''fucking hell'' I best start braking for that.... SPEED CAMERA!!!!!!! I make it just by the skin of my teeth.

i've been riding for nearly 20 mins, and its hott, far too hott, my ass is on fire. ''what the fuck'' I come to the conclusion that the engine must be right under the seat.

no time for thinking tho, not anymore, this bike needs 100 percent consintraion. the thought of a hott ass only last 4-3 mins then im back in the zone, VFR zone.

almost home... I take the last exit for brighton and head along my fav bit of road... its unreal I tell myself, could even be a dream... i'm over the moon with this bike and have never felt anything like it before.

I decide to stop off at a mate and surprise him.

SURPRISE!!!!!

(pics to come tomrrow, as i need to go p.c world and get a new cable to hook up the cam to the laptop)

If you can feel the heat on your arse after 20 minutes, you may want to check out coolant levels and suchlike.

You took your sweet time, but well done for sorting out your test and bike etc.

Lol @ lurker.

ALL straight line acceleration gets dull after a week or two.

Christ, im sure busa's feel slow if you open em up often enough.

The rush is in the fiddly stuff.

I must admit, ive been waiting for the 'just had a go on a proper bike, im starting to regret remortaging to buy the rs matching pink ohlins' thread for some time.

As said, amazed you got shot of the rs. Vague idea of how much that venture lost you?
