Finally sold the Beemer - got K which made me VERY happy, given it was a 6 year old bike with 60K kms on it. (Still got an SV650S for sale if anyone wants it, if I can ever get it back from the girl who has borrowed it) I must heartily recommend [URL]http://bikesales.com.au[/URL] - sold the bike within 36 hours of the free listing. A guy from Qld flew down to pick it up. Around the same time my lovely wife acquired a rather tasty 1999 R6 race bike, formerly of the Northside Motorcycles race team and which I am *informed* won a 6 hour endurance at Oran Park in 2000 (no idea of the veracity of this claim - anyone know how to check these sorts of things?). So she will be going whizz whizz at EC, and probably passing me regularly in the process. (Dammit). Manning
