    Could explain why Torph struggled to weld it.... cheap sh*t aint good. Honda stuff is usually good quality.

    Here is a CB250RS

    You shouldn't have included a picture Jon. Enough to put anyone off... ;D

    Now don't blame Toph - he didn't weld this one, my dad got a friend of his to have a go (who remarked the metal was very soft). I'm more impressed it's lasted this long now ;D

    Do you really think I'm gonna care what my bike looks like - with the conditions I ride in I just want one that runs (reliably), handles well and doesn't mind a bit of dirt and salt


    ...remind me why I bought a bike with lots of chrome again......?

    Aye, they may be ugly buggers, but they ride well, and are reliable.

    Just cos it aint an R1.....

    How about getting one of the little starters they use in MotoGP?

    I never thought it would happen but my eye has been caught by a 125. There's a Tuono 125 in ProBike for £1999. Would be a whole lot of fun with the full RS125 tuning kit on it! Probably not very reliable though.

    Little starters? I don't watch the MotoGP so I've no idea what equipment they use :-X

    I'm not knocking my 125 in any way, I'll probably still keep hold of it even if I do get a bigger bike - it sips fuel, is nice and light for manoeuvring through traffic (and in snow!), and gets me from A to B...


    ...I'd just like to be able to go from A to B a little quicker ;D
