    ....you manage a "rolling burnout" on a CD200.

    Not bad. You want to try 10 miles of unclassified rural roads. Every
    day is an adventure.

    This was on Old Street. Leaves and diesel and rain make a wonderful
    combination.

    Remember to keep the throttle pinned or it'll chuck you over the highside.

    Aye. That they do. There was one lad who use to do my South London
    to City commute on a 400 sprots bike. When the road was slippery,
    he'd purposefully spin up the back wheel whilst filtering. It was
    impressive and horrifying in equal measure.

  8. You chaps need some decent weather and open roads. We got plenty over
    here.

    good point, but I prefer having sex with women - sheep do nothing for
    me whatsoever.

    Really. Have you thought about swapping your CD200 for a CM200? The
    difference in weight distribution should cut down on rear wheel spins.

    You should try not doing one on a GSX1100F which coughs and splutters
    more than me ATM (I feel fucking rough, WTF did I come into work
    today!)
