Topic: What do you thinK

[MikeDeB]

Me, I'm a huge Duc fan and love those new SportClassics.  Got to see and sit on the Paul Smart LE and Sport 1000 at the International Motorcycle show in Novi last week.  They sit very well but then I like that riding position.  The components appeared to be first rate, especially the Ohlins (sp?) suspension on the PS LE.  The Sport 1000 had a full 2-1 Termi exhaust system which looked way better than the stock 2-2 system.  Then, the other day I met a gentleman who had just ridden his PS LE for the first time last week (took delivery in November when the weather was crappy).  He loves the way it handles and says the power delivery is excellent for the dual sparked air cooled motor.  He also owns an 05 749S.

I also love the look of the new Nortons.

Motorcycling just keeps on gettin' better.

Hey Billy, I had the pleasure of building some of the early fours new from the crate, and also the big Norton.

Once preped and registered (title) I would give them a quicky road test. Give me a SOHC4 anyday.

Hey Sammy, get into the 21st century mate, that's like saying the new triumphs are crap because they have the same name as the leaky ol' ones? Silly ol' man......................

If you call me a silly ol' man once more, i'll send our cricket team over to sort you out, yold fart.

My first drag bike was a Triumph 40 years ago, what a load of crap that was.

Apart from 3 years on a Yamaha (sponsorship deal) have been 100% Honda nut.

Well I'm tempted to call you that just so I can see the Aussie cricketers whoop some Pommy arse now, and not have to wait 18 months, but in deference to your advanced years Sammy, I'll show some respect, ha ha!

I do like Brit bikes, but my favourite would have to be the V Twin Vincents, and not just because they were designed by an Aussie, (Phil Irving) they really were/are a great bike! Cheers, Terry. (not so old fart)

Well Tell, i'll go along with that one.
George Browns blown Super Nero, what a machine.
The sound of a blown Vinnie give me goose bumps.
OK then,  i'm a silly old man but you'r still an old fart.

Ha ha, I'll have to check out the web and see if I can find some pics of that Super Nero, i'd almost forgotten about it! Havwe you seen the ads for that new movie "The worlds fastest Indian" with Sir Anthony Hopkins? I'm really looking forward to seeing it Sammy, it looks awesome! Cheers, Terry.
