Geordie*Dave:
Is he on a Netherlands reg plate?


Yep. There are quite a few peeps out here modifying V-max's. Pretty cool, as they tend to go a bit further than the average Gixxer streetfighter project. Not really my cup of tea, but cool nonetheless.

He makes some lovely stuff. There'd definately be a big brutal mega money Taylormade Vmax in my lottery garage.

ade: as i said steve live locally to me and the guy at the top of our road has a vrod with the fist avo 300mm on the rear, his bike was on the avon stand at the nec last year, bike sounds like thunder running down the road, was thinking of street fightering mine but tempted to by a nacker and do it up when funds allow, like your bikes you seem to have a talent for it.

I have never ridden anything with tyres over 250, talking to those that attempt to ride a bike any faster than walking pace, 300 takes more forward planning than it's worth, 350 - 400, waste of fucking time.
even on chops, the days of stupid tyres are on the way out.
