Evening all

 

Just signed the paperwork and picking up my 2017 stealth gray RS . Been driving a dog shit mk2 forcus estate diesel for a couple of years and a load of other shit cars before that. Into my bikes mainly so have a 2000 Suzuki Hayabusa aswell but decided I needed a mid life crisis and the RS seemed the right way to do it

Thanks

Congratulations. The RS is the perfect vehicle for a mid-life crisis. (My money is on the Hayabusa killing you before the RS does.)

Only qualifies as a mid life Crisis if you:

• Start tuning, modifying your RS
• Worry about which fuel to use (Regular or Super)
• Look at the weather forecast to see its going to be dry
• Spend hours on deciding which replacement tyres to go for
• Give your RS A name
• Look over your shoulder at your RS when walking away

I guilty of 3 out of 6

Guys / Gals any others I missed

Weather. Tyres. Looking longingly over my shoulder. I’ll add: losing your shit over anyone coming within five feet of you (driving or parking). The new ‘guilty’ page. ?

[andy thornton]

4 out of 6, plus separation anxiety,But the parking near is the worrying and anoying  bit that should have been a priority on the list.

@andy Thornton

Just sold my Kenny Roberts colours (yellow & Black) RD400 coffin with twin micron pipes and you all think a Remus or V3 exhaust is loud nah only a slight burble compared to a pair of microns on a twin pot screamer ?

FPM375 Rocks

The rest of the “M” maps suck

2 out of 3 for me!

[andy thornton]

@white-rs2,my favourite colour was the kenny roberts  eagle paint scheme,going to do a full ground up restoration on either 250/350lc in yellow with chrome allspeeds which are still being made-RD400 were awesome bikes along with Honda 400 fours etc,
