Of all God's creatures there is only one that cannot be made the slave of the lash. That one is the cat. If man could be crossed with the cat it would improve man, but it would deteriorate the cat.

How dare you ;D ;D ;D It's a Honda of course 8) 8) 8)
I'm not sure what the motor is but 3 and 4 valve versions have been tried.
I'll ask him, his name is Jay Upton and now resides in Austrailia.
The bike is 13th quickest in the world at 6.113seconds and 22nd fastest at 228.65mph, set in 06 at Gainsville.

Billy, the crash was early last year, fracture of the pelvis and a few bumps and scratches, tough old Englishman. ;D ;D
The schedule is, arrive Atlanta airport Friday 5th March at 15.15. Depart Monday 8th March at 19.00.
Now get yourself measured for some white leathers. 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)
