Don't lie! its not the weather it's the fact you could not find your platform shoes, so could not touch the ground when sat on it  [rofl]

Yeah, I know...and whats worse is when I cancelled it, they said...."Yeah, gonna piss down so good choice.." and it hasn't rained since.  Bugger!

Personally though mate, I'd rather not put the DTC to use.....fahook that!   I want to ride the thing balls out round my local roads to compare to my ten...none of that wizardry bollocks.

Nonetheless, I would enjoy knowing it was there just in case.....

Ha ha ..You know sometimes I think everyone should have a go on a zx10 especialy a first gen just to teach you about throttle control on various road situations with all this traction control stuff comming in, there are going to be a new breed of riders that rely on it so much that they won't really know how to RIDE a bike and when all that gubbins does'nt work there are going to be some almighty highsides.........Progress though I suppose :dontknow:

It is, honestly.  [whistle]

It's the Sierra Nevadas near Granada, Andalucia.
