Bolarks, why can`t I post pictures....
That link would be a URL to post a pic Steve it would have to end with a jpg or similar something like http://www.somesite.com/filename.jpg
Yes. Must end in JPG. I had to change the format of that roadster pic from BMP to JPG before it would come up here.
Cheers

Real torque curves don't have a first derivative. :-^)

That's a cool looking Panther.
And no, you're not losing your mind. You have become a well rounded enthusiast. In the mental sense that is.
I'm a Poirot fan (David Suchet) and the way the recent series showcased the elegance of the Art Deco period in London really got to me. So when I saw that Henderson. Wow.

Then there's this.
Has just arrived here: Sky Ace 125.
$1700 if you self assemble. You even get an Allen key.
Chinese. Very well made.
A mate recently bought one. Replaced the header pipe / muffler with a chrome bespoke version done in the style below: really sets off the bike.
He absolutely hurtles past everything down the steep twisty mountain roads near here. That's when he's not riding his Brutale,

What a 'conservative' lot we are. Personally, I'd love one of those to chill-out on with a girlfrend after a rip on me 'no provision for a passenger' 'blade.
Mind you,when it comes to bikes I'm pretty promiscuous and given the chance I'll ride anything and everything.
BTW, has that r1200c got some sort of chrome 'shield' over the headers?

It's all VFR (DCT) round here now. STILL missing my 1100s tho.

Speak for yourself there El Nicko. ;-^) Oh - except for promiscuous bikes bit.
Still think the Henderson Art Deco (earlier) takes the cake, unless of course you'd like this:
I like it, I like it

Mines a little different insofar as I,d love to build a bike from scratch. Something on the lines of a Featherbed frame (that guy in Wales) with a Triumph Bonneville or Harley Sportster motor. Café racer without the clip-ons....Decent suspension and as light possible........one day maybe.
kernow,the last bit
