    Bye bye FZ6, hello Street triple

    I'm afraid today I said goodbye to my lovely FZ6. She was a great bike. I found a Street triple by chance that had every accessory that i think looks great, already attached to it. Including the official Arrow titanium duel exhausts worth £695. I thought many times about making my FZ6 a...

    Video of someone who had no gear on

    It's not the worst out there but this video is enough to make you think. These are the injuries semi-healed so there isn't loads of blood or a load of scars, it's the in-between stage. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vUV0X7Tc3tA&feature=youtube_gdata_player

    Greece - The land of Squids

    I have just come back from a holiday in Greece (The land of squids). It's insane. Where we were, probably 90% of traffic is motorcycles or scooters. They all go flat out and they all wear at most shorts, t-shirts and flip flops. One girl was wearing nothing but a bikini and bare feet, and get...

    Bobber project

    Part of me has become obsessed with the idea of starting a bobber project. I seem most interested in bikes when I am customising them. A big part of me wants to create this: But in selling the FZ6 to fund such a project will I regret it? My bike is just how I want it and it's such a great...

    The 'What is your Youtube channel called?' thread

    Watched one of Erci's videos earlier and really enjoyed it, so i subscribed to his channel. Then thought i wonder what other members channels are called, and thought i'd start a thread where we can post our channel names, in the hope that there are other members (and i know there is) with some...

    Latest tapatalk update

    Just updated tapatalk for iPhone. One of it's new features is you can add thanks to posts (no more having to turn on computer just to thank people). I believe you can add photos to private messages too. And geotagging where you are. There are several other new features too, just thought I'd share.

    Gave her a clean, took some photos!

    So I decided to give the beast her first proper clean since buying her (not quite to wolfman's photoshoot standard of clean, but clean). I rode in a fair bit of rain recently and the bike was covered in mud and sand. I know you guys use the term 'need pics' quite freely, so as I thought I'd...

    This makes motorcycles seem as safe as lying down

    I posted this in a thread just now, but thought it deserved it's own one. I dare you to watch all of this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7k4Xk1mEwmI&feature=youtube_gdata_player

    Had an 'off' today

    And my FZ6 is totally and completely..............fine. You see, I was on a mountain bike, riding with my friend. As we approached a tricky downhill section where another friend had come a cropper a few weeks earlier. I turned to my buddy to see if he was alright, and in taking my eyes off the...

    Do you want to know how loud the Leo Vince is?

    People who post up these videos of themselves standing by their bikes revving them annoy me slightly. A digital camera's mic has no ability to demonstrate an accurate portrayal of sounds loudness or tone. If you really want to show us how loud an exhaust is you need to make a flyby video (I have...

    V-Strom POV video in the British countryside

    Seeing as I posted a motorcycle video here of my SV1000. I thought I may as well post another one of my V-Strom. It was a cracking bike, put a smile on your face, so comfortable, and because you sat so high, when you cornered the lean angle was huge. I do miss it, but the FZ6 excites me a bit...

    A flyby video I made of one of my bikes an SV1000

    Here is one of my bike videos I have on YouTube testing some exhausts on an SV1000 in the form of a flyby. At the very end you see a photo of the final modded stage of my bike. I was planning to do a similar video this summer but of my FZ6 doing a flyby with the Scorpions. YouTube -...

At 16 I got a road legal trail bike and after a year or so i moved to cars with heavy persuasion from my mum. I got into motocross about 5 years ago. I wanted...
