Daimo, was it you I saw riding along the A25 near Westerham yesterday afternoon? After reading your post yesterday morning I then saw 2 Benelli's in green and another bike along the A25, thought it may have been you...

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaah that was me Me on mine, Dad on his LE, best mate on his R6
Ironically the girl I work with saw me saturday morning when I was coming back down the lanes after picking her up too
You can't miss them, through looks or engine noise
Mark - Bandits more of a cruiser, Benellis an outright sports bike.
K3, No probs, love it or hate it kinda bike
JR - Got any details? Im sure I know people who will be interested in it.
Edit:
OOooo super cool, or ouber geek? I prefer the former £150 worth of cover All snug, but need to move that stuff to the left out the way for a bit more room.
New carbon Look at that exhaust Dirty!!

If you want kids in the future, don't do any heavy front braking...

Unless they tyres have actaully been on the rims 10 years then i'd agree. But i don't think they have and have to say Dunlop D207RR's are a really good tyre! I used them a few years back when i was trackdaying and racing. Makes me laugh when people insist on getting the latest super sticky tyres for the road. Unless you're on the track alot then you'll notice no differnce on the road between a set of the latest Super Corsa's or a set of Rennsports. The tyres just don't get hot enough on the road compared to a track to get the best out of them

They came standard on my dads LE so not going to be too shabby.
I will change them when they need to be replaced.
Tanks really not as bad as it looks.
JR, know anything about it at all?

Some bloke in a Red car who decided to go from the middle lane to the left lane at the roundabout, then decided to turn right round the roundabout as I was coming past? I was coming towards Maidstone.
But I did go through Alyseford yesterday, can't remember any near missis there though. Popped to the classic bike show after a ride, then came back and went up the A228 to see mother.
Two weeks in a row u seen me I'd just been to Ashford, then Rye

Yeah that was it, I was in the work's van (Tescos) heading back to Aylesford. I was pulling up at the lights on the roundabout just up from J6 of the M20 when I saw you and your Dad drive past me and stop at the lights. That car was so close to hitting you! I saw you head off towards Aylesford village as I turned into the industrial state.

How mads that, two weekends in a row
Middle, to left, to turn right Argggghhhh, was tempted to go chase them, but was already passed, so had a big rant at my old man instead
Lucky I actually opened the throttle instead of plodding past them!!!!
Sounds good doesnt it
