I just bought one.

The bike I'm used to riding has about 6bhp.

The thou is fucking batshit mental.

That is all. Shocked

I got a K2. It's bloody immaculate, I'll get some pics later.

Not quite sure why i got a thou - think it may be a little much for me to be honest but time will tell! Laughing

It really is that clean!

Just done the tyre pressures and adjusted the levers. Much better. Mr. Green

It's astonishing how quick they accelerate, and just how easy they are to go very, very fast on. They handle fantastically as well, absolutely love chucking my one about. I'm running a pair of Pilot Power's on it and they suit me and the bike very well, what tyres has that got on?

That's a very nice example, how much did that set you back?

Enjoy, Thumbs Up

I'm not going to say how much I paid, but I'm happy with the amount. It wasn't the cheapest but it is a good bike - I'm fed up of having scabby bikes.

It's got BT014's on. I don't like them, never have. I'll get some 2CTs or some Diablo's I expect in the near future, If I decide to keep it.

And yes, it does go. Mr. Green

Never liked them on mine either, or in fact when I had them on my little ZX4R. Michelin's are a much better tyre IMO, although saying that I've been very impressed by the 207 I've got on the front of my 595.

I think I had BT014 on the rear of the TRX, fine in the dry but come a little rain, very twitchy.
