The console looks huge!

I'm guessing it's a wrap around like this one?

Also you wouldn't be able to shed some light on why the owner decided to fit twin Suzukis as opposed to E-tecs would you......

It will look just right on an 850 with oversized tubes.

I hear that there are great deals going on Suzukis. At least, that's what Mr Suzuki UK told me last time we had dinner.

Nice motors too, if you pick the right one.

If you look close enough, you'll see that she's gripped so tightly, her eyes are watering...

Fact is, I still have one from the IOM in my wallet - God's truth!

I AM, the Meanest Man (after DHD)

Willk will be pleased to see that the tubes are now on the 850ob!
It would have been nice to catch up at the RB demo day but we are heading for the Isle of Man
