old rooster Posted November 24, 2013 Report Share Posted November 24, 2013 Does anyone know of a city further from the sea than Northampton? Doesn't stop me going down to the coast and doing some sea fishing. I've never subscribed to the attitude that the uvver area bans me from doing anything anyway! I got one of these. Is that one of the Viagras ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cambsman Posted November 24, 2013 Report Share Posted November 24, 2013 I bought a Jag XKR convertible. Tragic eh? Apart from the 400bhp V8 supercharged engine that is. Worked on "every level". Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vince Green Posted November 24, 2013 Report Share Posted November 24, 2013 (edited) I got one of these. Ah yes You are a man with real taste! best bike ever made by a long long way. Not the class of a full dress Harley but a all things being equal a bikers bike. Mid life Crisis, when a man buys a big bike, dyes his hair and starts chasing women half his age - I can hardly flippin' wait! Sooo looking forward to it!

Vince Green Posted November 24, 2013 Report Share Posted November 24, 2013 (edited) Is that one of the Viagras ?? No its not its a real motorbike in every sense of the word, total perfection. Not a racer not a poser but just quality. Edited November 24, 2013 by Vince Green Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vince Green Posted November 24, 2013 Report Share Posted November 24, 2013 (edited) He could buy a Hardly Davidson-they are like motorbikes but are too slow to hurt anyone even when you mend them long enough to get them on the road. Imagine having sex with an Asthmatic Cow and you will be about right. Oh I don't know, would you want to do Route 66 on a Fireblade? Horses for courses. As for reliability, a lot better now, I did New York to Omaha and back on a borrowed Road King last year and it never missed a beat. Slow? I don't think so, its a cruiser though, the torque is unbelieveable. Just wind it up and it goes all day.

Not so sure but each to their own. They were a quick bike but I wouldn't want to do a continental tour on one. Pretty ugly but very grunty.

Cambsman Posted November 24, 2013 Report Share Posted November 24, 2013 Jeez. It's bad enough that you are talking about bikes. But Harley's? Really??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisjpainter Posted November 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2013 Tell him to buy one of these, it's slow enough to just maim himself not kill himself and he can take the kids / fishing / shooting gear with him. I think we have a winner. my sister would love this too, although there's a chance she'll end up driving it with Mat in the sidecar. Guess who wears the trousers in their marriage!

Gimlet Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 Jeez. It's bad enough that you are talking about bikes. But Harley's? Really? ?? Says the man with the XKR convertible. A car which to own, according to Jeremy Clarkeson (a man who knows a thing or two about mid-life crises), is to scream from the rooftops that you can't afford an Aston Martin.

88b Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 Jeez. It's bad enough that you are talking about bikes. But Harley's? Really??? Obviously another expert , have you ever actually ridden one ? Chris the importer for Urals is in Kent and they do them with the sidecar on the left . I'd like to try one one after reading all the experts opinions I'll have to sell the Harley's first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
