Due to a chain adjuster bolt snapping in the swingarm and my local bike shop completely screwing it up I had to buy another exup to break. Guess what it had on it? Yes a full titatnium Akrapovic race system on it! It now graces my bike and looks and sounds the absolute bollocks! http://i14.photobuck...

Some new pics, just finished its winter rebuild, new clutch, strip and clean all calipers, new pads, balanced carbs, new filters and oil, new tyres, new (std) exhaust etc etc and lots of elbow grease! still got a set of dog bones to fit when the Spanish postal service gets round to delivering them :...

I agree, so to you too! still a nice bike though

I love the original R1 in those colours, seriously thinking about getting one this year to accompany the exup in the garage, funds permitting of course.

Anybody want to buy a kidney?

A very nice bike, apart from the red grips and tyres which look daft!

It reminds me of my old marlboro coloured rd125!

CLEAN!!! damn I'm moving to Spain... those hills look class for some serious mountain biking as well and dry roads for the exup :eek: 1040exup LOL at the dry roads bit, not today :D My garden today! http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a315/abnormalanimal/DSC01572.jpg Its normally dry snd sunny though...

Bike no 1 is an '88 VFR750FG, I use this daily, it has 67,000 on the clock and still pulls like a train, I love the V4 in it, its also pretty clean too!

I do spend more time riding it than cleaning it, honest!

11,000 miles in the 2 years I've owned it, and its a 2nd bike!
