What do you need? DON´T BUY THIS BIKE
if you want to ride head down, **** up;
if you want to pose outside the local, or are thinking of becoming an Islington ****;
if you want to spend a fortune on after market gizmos, just to keep up with the Joneses;
if you want to spend hours worrying about pitted chrome-work;
if you are looking for some kind of penis extension;
if you need to use a bike to get to talk to the laydees

HOWEVER

If you want a bike that starts first time,every time, with an oil light that goes off on the first crank of the starter after 25,000 miles, that uses no oil between services, that has no handling vices, that´ll out-pull bigger, sexier multis, especially out of islands and quick overtakes, that´ll give 50 mpg without having to ride like a total puss, that you can service yourself for about £60 in under an hour, that´s cheap to insure (£240 fully comp for me), that you can leave if you have to in the street without having babies about it getting nicked, then you could do a whole lot worse.

This bike ain´t pretty. But it is a friend and a hard working friend, at that. AS with all things, you pays your money and takes your choice.
