Yamaha Vmax?
No, Golf R as per his first post. They are startlingly quick with the DSG box and a mild tweek or two. Certainly enough to worry a few of the milder bikes from the lights.

I took my Ducati on the Nurburgring a couple of years ago. It was a mixed vehicle day. Never again! What I made up coming out of the corners I lost going in. And those corners are quite bumpy. Seeing massively tuned cars with no suspension boincing off line whilst passing me was terrifying.No, Golf R as per his first post.

Heh, I did that on my SV as my first solo track excursion (I had done a couple of race schools) and managed to misread Adenauer Forst. Went straight up the curb and over the grass, but managed to stay on. There are many videos of drivers and riders getting that one wrong, with spectacular results in some cases. I stick to short tracks now.I took my Ducati on the Nurburgring a couple of years ago. It was a mixed vehicle day. Never again! What I made up coming out of the corners I lost going in.

Do bikers bother with Switzerland these days?Just don’t bring it round here. We are sick to death of noisy motor bikes blasting up the hills surrounding our village.
I'd gladly join you so we could machine gun them down as they ride past. I despise the Harley fake lifestyle image and the bikes are shit.Fat Germans on Harleys on tours through the hills mostly
I really fancy w Cali ocean for my fishing, hiking and occasional Euro forays (for two), or crashnoad, without the whole RV palaver.

The Z4- was that after Hatton Garden, Tony?My Z4 & X5. Like BMWs, me.
Those, to me, are last generation of built-like-tanks pukka MBs.
Built to last and also to cruise big miles.
