I suppose I should put down some other toys then seen as the bike is currently out of action!

Got a 2004 Marin Rock Springs TARA system with Marzocchi MX Pro Bomber Forks and Fox Float R shock. Another toy that doesn't get as much use as it once did is my HPi RS4 IC R/C car. Came with Lotus Elise shell, then got a new shape Celica shell, now housed by a Mitsubishi Eclipse shell.

have got a Corrado VR6(which is for sale)

a RGV250 for trackdays,great for stuffing it up the inside of the bigger boys!!!

and have a CBR600RR on the way.

yay to bikes(non engined beasts), i have me a spech enduro SX with shiver sc's, hope big'uns, magura discs(soon to be spanky new black hope 4 pot thingies). much good funness down hills, off drops and generally annoying taxi's in city center(ahahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha - i hate taxi's)

btw who else here likes to ride off of stoopid stuff on expensive bikes hoping not to hurt themselves too badly(only a second thought though :confused: )?? biggest i dropped so far is (approx):

flat - 5 1/2 FT dead drop

slope - about 25 FT longest

slope - about 20ish FT downwards :eek:

mmmmmmmmmm' date=' I love Triumph's. Looking at MCN this week and the new Speed Triple looks interesting. Underseat exhaust!

Been thinking about trading my SV in for a Daytona 600 or Speed Four. Speed Triple may be a bit too much on the old insurance for me! :([/quote']

Dont assume the Speed Triple is expensive to insure - I'm 31 with 4 years NBC and I've just been quoted

Except being 23 with 2 years NCB, they tend to sting you for all your worth! Cost me

My second car is a Reanault 5 GT Turbo. Which is currently up for sale. Much prefer the Skoda so the 5 is going.

My second car is a 1987 Audi Coupe quattro 2.2 :-)

You're not selling any bits and bobs for the camper are you? My next door neighbour is putting one together.
