Hey Mark,

How's the new bike? Any pictures? :)
By the way I picked up the v rap from Mark's place yesterday and rode it home and was caught out in some pretty big torrential showers - the kind that is so thick that roads flood and you can't see a thing but then it is over in 10 mins. I was half expecting the bike to go down to one cylinder but it went through it ok! Must really complement Mark on his care for bikes - the v rap is really healthy and punchy. Well done!

Got the new bike done nearly 100 miles on it already but boy do I need to pipes on it.
Stood at some lights and got drown out by a Toyota Prius!! :oops: :oops:
Loving kicking back feet up front leaning back cruising around.
Very happy. :D :D
I have no idea how to upload pic's on here. Can anyone tell me in 5 year old speak how to do it?? :oops:

Very nice, my mate with whom I share a lock-up sold his TL1000 (it scared him once too often!) and now has just bought an 06 one of those. He says the same as you re: needing louder pipes. Vance & hines apparently do them. Also a k&n air filter should help. Nice bike to ride- even for a 6'3" gangly like me. Lets see how long it takes you to touch bits down on roundabouts!

Have you got any trips planned?
