its about bikes......

you must have seen the Think campaigne for Safe Biking, where the guys riding allover on a red superbike, looks like it has one headlight. The oad signs keep changing to tell him what to watch out for.

What bike is it? cos it look lush

Here's the advert (in full) for anyone wh0 hasn't seen it.

http://www.thinkroadsafety.gov.uk/campaigns/motorcycles/down load/perfectday.mpg

It's deffo a Duke from the speedo.. And not being 100% on bikes but it looks awfully like the gorgeous 999

So there you go.. If I'm wrong, I'm sure the Batch will say.

It is indeed a Duke 999 or 749.Looking at the width of the rear tyre I would say a 749.

lovely bike, how much for one of those? about 12k?

do yo remember me telling you about my mate genuine Virgin livery R6, andy?

well, he had it ou oneday after tightening his chain, only to overtighten it, fook the rear wheel bearing. Wasnt much of a problem until he went to yam to get a new bearing, the one they gave him was too small!!, turns out that his bike has light weight wheels on it, and he bearings are bigger. He say he can lift the rear wheel with one finger and thats with the tyre on it! The bike has been confirmed to be race prepared, and leaves CBR600 standing.

Hes been talking about selling it for a new black R6, but his lass wont let him. Ive told him not too either cos theres no way he'll ever have such a good exclusive bike again, plus a standard new R6 would be slower.
