Your opinions are generally in line with mine dan, apart from here where you are very specifically miles wide of the mark.

The 50th anniversary red/white scheme does look quite trick though!

Or this one...

Life is a contact sport,  you'll be needing rule #5

colour chosen!

^ would be what i'd want if i had the money.. however its now down to these... one is higher mileage but the other has some scuffs (I dont really mind as I can't keep a bike mint if my life depended on it) but another is lower mileage and another has some nice exhausts already fitted.. argh help me decide..

I significantly prefer the colour scheme of PJ's old one to those.

I'm told that it can infuriate bees, so that is a potential downside...

only solution is to throw money at the problem and get a big bang...

The black's a bit black.

And I kind of think black's a bit more GSXR750 than R1 for some reason.

That red and white big bang looks very nice.

When I bought mine I really wanted a blue one but Neil was dithering in his shall-I-shan't-I phase and wouldn't sell me his!

Twat. It's awesome. The perfect engine, torque, revs and power. Not like a bland IL4.
