This is quite a tough one...  :icon_scratch:

I think I would also have to go with my Katana. She started life as a 750, but ended up a 1100 (...and I learnt why we change the oil and filter...). I had some BIG plans for that bike... Hopefully I will get the chance to own one again.

Majickwak - excellent - It really shafts the bike  but I too ride Monday Friday in all the crap. My limit is when I get up and its heavy frost - beads of water on car roofs are clear frozen. Light frost on our quiet street is ok - its never there on main roads. Yours must be the only other 10 thats dirty then ? I havent posted pics of mine because it is a disgrace.

Funny that 'cause when I do occasionally clean it, it feels faster...

FAV BIKE Ive owned before - none really - when I actually think back to them they were great at the time but in hindsite they were ALL SHITE compared to Animal

Fink I'd have my first bike again (so long as I could keep the 10) which was a lush GT250 X7. Had sooo much fun.  When I bought it it had a sidecar tyre on the back, used to wheelspin out of a corner or when drag racing.  Avon Roadrunners (remember them) sorted that though. 

Great days!

Mines a 636 though  :emb:  Probably wouldn't consider taking a 10 out in snow with all that power at the back.  Which is part of the reason I haven't fallen for one yet.  I think the 6 does all I want for now and it does it well  :icon_thumright:

This is the good thing about bikes - that all half decent bikes cover the same stretch of road (traffic and weather included) in the same time. You have simply cant get the extra wallop of a thou into use enough to make a difference - (race tracks and mad bastards excluded) - most roads these days are traffic and corners, any advantage a thou has over say 120mph is just "rolling the dice" with Dr Death anyhow.
I still think you'll get one one day - 1000cc motors have something magic that is just not there with less cubes !

C90 all th way... used to love overtaking the 50s with their riders with all the kit...  Interesting wheeling the things ..rev the nuts and then slam them into first  :lol:  watch out you didnt destroy the firemans helmet of a rear mudguard.

Saw a couple of guys mucking about off road recently with a c90...looked a blast.


Seeing other posts here, anyone fancy lending me a Katana...they look oh sooo nice!
