    If they got rid of the gay red bits it would be really nice, yes.

    Black is the only true colour for a bike.

    I have a black bike - you don't have a bike.

    HTH.

    Opinion.

    The factual truth hurts?

    I thought it was a fantastic looking bike - and only bought it because I
    fell in love with it when I rode a brand new one at the dealer launch.

    It was a sort of goal, something to aim for..... I should have bought a
    750SS instead, with hindsight..... actually, I should have gone straight
    for a VFR because it does _exactly_ what I need my main bike to do.

    Still on the lookout for a nice SOB, though. Something like a GPZ900R or
    another CBX750.

    What?! Sez the man with the ugliest thing Kwak have produced for a few
    years...

    WRT the MV, I take back what I said in another thread, recently -- /that/
    is a /stunning/ motorcycle.

    Ex-cer-use me! I'll take no criticism on the 'ugly' front from you! :^)

    Seriously though, it's not the thing's best feature, is it?

    You lucky, lucky bastard.

    If I won the lottery I'd _have_ to buy an NR750. And ride it.

    SteveH fascinated us all by saying...
    Why? You already have a bike that outperforms it.

    It's not about individual features, it's about the thing as a whole.

    A ride on a Suzuki TS90 did that for me back when I was 10 or 11. I
    wouldn't want to buy one now though.

    Bit of a difference between a TS90 and an NR750, though......

    Incidentally, I did my test on a TS100.

    Let's think now...

    Original purchase: £3000
    Cafe racer stuff: £1500
    New engine: £500

    ****.

    ****. ****. ****. ****. ****. ****. ****. ****. ****.

    ****.

    Still, it's got "character", eh?

    I will, really I will. I just have to get my arse in gear to get it
    MOT'd. As soon as I'm back from India it's going to happen. Honest.
