Bye bye FYM110, hello Yamaha YZ426. I sold my mini supermoto and bought... a big supermoto.

Just to keep the moto-x bike, the R6 and R1 company? This guy robs banks for a living.

The van must have fairly high running costs too.

Lovely bike!

Very nice!

(You taking it round Oulton Park? )

[Korn]

Afraid I sold the R1 a few weeks ago - so it's only keeping the XR and the track bike company. The van doesn't cost much to run either, only real cost is diesel and a bit of basic servicing which I do myself.

If you want in on a bank job though, just ask. Can you handle a shooter?

Sorted insurance and tax today, took it for its first proper ride this evening out to Box Hill way, had great fun getting used to it, playing on the twisties and learning to wheelie it. How long did it take me to get pulled over by the plod you ask? All of 45 minutes. Luckily he just wanted 'a quick chat' about my riding, and to check I hadn't nicked the thing.

Graphical guide to first outing:

Very nice mate , looks like it could be fun to work on.

Korn, you seem to be in a good position to answer the age old question of (and presuming your moto-x is road legal):

What kind of bike do you think is the most fun to ride on the the great british roads?

[Korn]

Don't really have an answer for that, all bikes are fun in different ways (yes, Mr Giffould, that includes cruisers ) and more or less suitable to different types of roads - so in the end it's down to personal preference.

I bought the supermoto because I've been having stacks of fun riding small, twisty country roads on my XR250 (think B roads and below, it's only geared for 60mph) but I wanted something with a bit more grunt to tackle the larger roads and play silly buggers with wheelies and the like. I also plan to use it for a few trackdays, both normal and supermoto, just as something 'a bit different' to my R6 track bike.

Nice bike!

Hope this isn't too off topic, but what's the difference between the bike in the front and the bike in the rear? Is it just the type of tyres?

Thanks in advance.

Ok, I'll rephrase, on the styles of bikes, what's the differences other than tyres, colour scheme and make/model.

Is there suspension differences? Engine performance differences? I'm looking at getting a Supermoto, but it's proving difficult, but I can get one that looks similar to the one in the background, figuring i could just swap over tyres, if that's the only difference. If you see?
