"Warp drive is availble when required Cap'n"

Rolfy Dave

Been there, and had one

Well, having just had a great weekend with Oldbull (Dave n Sharon) and their friends Steve & Belinda, we can now announce that Warp drive is now available sd 'n when required by Me 'n her indoors...

We gave it a little try coming out of Hereford towards Abergavenny, and the bird & Pan were just distant specks in the mirrors... OO'er missus...

Only 165bhp to play with...Bugga:xm

Mileage... Well, we all filled up at the same time, . The Bird took ?21 & the Pan & I needed ?19 each....

Not too shabby for a 1400 Vtech engine with that much oomph on tap.

More reports to follow when I have had my tea...

Cheers,

Rolfy

Well, we like it.... and its got a tick tock, but its an hour out... Just like my blackbird used to be... :p I should have learned how to adjust it in about another 7 yearsh1d1ng2

It looked covered in shite when we got home... Had to Jetwash it off before I let it down our new block paved drive...

I'm sorry, but I didn't quite get this. A (Honda) V-tech 1400cc producing 165 bhp..? What sort of bike are we talking about here? :dunno:

I never said it was a Honda :p

Its actually a Kasawacky GTR 1400.....

A seriously glorious sports tourer for the discerning gentleman motorcyclist...
(how the feck did I get one then...LOL)

Its the replacement for our '99 Blackbird.

Cheers,

Rolfy

Kawasaki GTR I think, ugly looking brute, no match for a Pan in a beauty contest but hey, with that much power, who needs good looks?

Hehehe.. to say Rolfy is chuffed with it would be the understatement of the year lol.. and rightly so tho, I couldnt belive that a 1400 could look so small if you get my drift, not a tiny bike by any means but it dosent look big enough to be a 1400 :lick:

My mate Steve really liked it as well as me and she sounds gorgeous when he gives it the berries whith his new Remus can :yo:..

congrats mate, she is a luvly bike, hope you both enjoy her as much as you did the bird

Just corrected your spelling there Barrie...

LOL

It looks a lot better "in the flesh", if you get'n my drift :bow:

According to the motorcycle magazine testers, it will outaccelerate the new Busa up to about the magic "ton" :bow:

Yeaaaaahhhhhh !!! Who needs looks ???:-:

We're more than happy with it,
