I love how angry and contankerous it is, and demands respect when you ride it.its like trying to live with a V8 supercar as your daily. you get soooo many likes, but it would be a *beep* to drive and enjoy.any sort of cruising around town and it starts getting hot, you can barely ride the friggin thing with the exhausts right under ya bot bot. wrists get sore after 150 klms. tyres only last 4500 kays. still havent had the thing flat out. ive shifted to 6th probably twice....im just thinking my sort of riding now would be more enjoyable on the night rod. and I have found a dealer who will do a straight swap.

Mick is growing up..Dude this is sympathy 'baby brain'..You're thinking sensibly because the missus is preggers.. I think you need to leave the duc in the garage.. And decide after your hormones settle a bit.. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
