    Just not keen on naked bikes, so I picked the Ninja. I realise I am out of step with the current fashion, but the faired bike will be better for the distance work and i would still have decent fun...

    N55 actually has slightly less tuning potential. For a tuned motor, go N54. Still love my 335i although its not quite to the level of docs car!

    The average is simply your guess.

    It's a big 'if' though Mark. What 'if' they take 5k miles at 25mpg in the SX as the benchmark and add the duty to maintain this revenue.

    The biggest losers would be hauliers. What would happen to...

    To be fair, the ZX7 was considered to be quite weighty even when it was new. Certainly when compared with the contemporary GSXR750. The weight was never really a big negative on the road though.

    Don't bother disconnecting brake lines. Just remove the rear calipers and tie them up to support them.

    To be honest, there's only the prop to disconnect after that, and you could drop the subframe...

    Suzuki or Kawasaki? GT750's seem to be going for good money at the moment (good for the seller that is).

    I still hanker for an RD500 or RG500 but can't genuinely see me getting one.

    In which case he needs to buy he 750 Jonny! :D

    MCN quotes 149bhp for the 954 (link), but it does feel more like 130 to be fair. The power curve is very different to the GSXR750 I owned though...

    What keeps tripping, the fuse or the breaker in the consumer unit? What's the rating of the device that trips? You can get motor rated MCB's (type D from memory) which will allow the higher starting...

    I think you mean Highways Agency Jon, as they look after motorways and trunk roads with the local authority maintaining other adopted roads.

    I've got the same 954 blade as DLowe and again I love the fact you don't have to change down a couple of gears to nip past cars. I've owned 600's and 750's too and the 600's are a bit too frantic for...

    As above. The moog part number is correct and fits all 4 corners. Go to a regular motor factors and you'll get the wrong balljoint. Order the moog from camskill or rockauto (not sure if Apex do them)...

    The application guidesc are wrong and the joint is 2mm too small as you discovered. Camskill in the uk and Rockauto in the States do the correct items which do fit the front or the rear.

    They do still look great dont they? I wouldn't go out in the wet with that rear slick though :D

    I reckon I may get a twin next as the low down torque suits my riding style better these days.

    Take the cluster apart and put some insulating tape over the light. The tester can't determine whether the light is working or not, which from my understanding should be an advise.
