Spot on Ali. I'm afraid to say that even when Jasper and Khush had their full carbon 748's (I think they were both 748's) that the full carbon look didn't float my boat - no disrespect guys, they just looked a bit, well, unfinished.

Not saying that any 150 mph + carbon fibre missile isn't sexy, but well painted carbon with just a little natural carbon showing through is really, really sexy...in the same way that Nicole Kidman would be sexy naked, but even sexier with tantalising lingerie.

I'm just off for a cold shower now.....NURSE!!!

Agreed aswell far far to much carbon on display. Question is why spend all that money on 'last years' model!

Live and let live.

He has dreamed of this bike for years and now he has it - at least his dream was harder to reach than just a standard R1.

Specials aren't to everyone's taste (or they wouldn't be special!) and the most important thing is that the owner is happy. He's going to feel it in the wallet if he ends up selling it though.




btw, no I don't like it either!
