Obree on his pursuit bike he used to beat Boardmans record.
Obree built the bike himself using parts from a washing machine..

Boardman had the might and engineering of Lotus to produce his bike..

One of the great head-to-head competitions in bike racing.
Shame NONE of the records are recognised now :(

Oh, for a bike with an ENGINE.
It's between the MV Agusta F4S - with Phill Hill mods.
and the Bennelli Tornado

But for scratching around, it has to be the GIXXER :)

This photo is the late David Jefferies, who died in an accident during last years TT practice. In his memory a ride-out on the TT circuit is being planned for 2004. Go to www.iomtt.com if you want to know more and join in remembering a great man.

cool bikes, the lightning and Firebolt. Ducati 916 will do for me though.

no, I think they MAY have a good one coming in the new bike.

The current range suck and cannot be driven with real verve on the open road.
You have to THINK about when to apply throttle in a car coz on left handers the bike will stand UP, and on right handers will try to drop. TThe latter with disastrous results. That's not what you want out of a bike :)
The new bike's a 'normal' in-line four ACROSS the bike so no gyro steering.

I like naked bikes or similar...not so picky on the make or model :) though Triumph Speed and Street Triples come to mind.

I also just remembered I am partial to Buell 1125's. Like GM, just when Buell gets a bike right, Harley axes the brand.
