    CX500 might look cool do you think ? ...or maybe a 650 turbo version of the CX.

    There's a hell of a mix on there, from old heads to teenagers on 125's - there's lots of banter, including certain people that seem to thrive on nothing other than winding people up. Just don't be a victim.

    Sometimes it's funny as, other times its pathetic.

    There are good mechanically knowledgeable people on there though, and they've started doing tours around Europe etc now so if that's of interest

    Has anyone else seen anything on this new Kawasaki Ninja H2? Supposedly going to be the fastest ever production bike. With a possible turbo or supercharger!

    Actually, just found this...

    Depends which report you read. Always has a supercharger and KHI are known to be working on a supercharged bike using technology developed for jetskis.

    3 cylinders or 4 ?
    600 or 1000 or anywhere in between ?
    Sports bike or Hyperbike ?

    I wouldn't be that surprised if it had 2 front wheels and ran on diesel TBH.

    The name H2 suggests it will be 2-stroke triple with a frame made from cheese straws and 19 inch front wheel lol.

    Could be interesting to look around it at the winter bike shows. I still want a good look and a sit on a KTM RC390 which should have done the rounds last year but my enthusiasm for it is waning already

    Anyone got any other suggestions for new bikes that could be interesting to have a good look around at the shows ?

    Right well, this new H2R is looking to be a thou with a super charger coming in at just under 300hp!!!!!!

    Probably a 600 super charger coming too.

    Nice!!!! Kinda off topic and I think it is a stupid question but I am gonna ask anyway. So bear with me guys......
    I assume a stubby can will be louder that a normal length one??
    The reason I ask is I want more grunt from my bike and I think that a stubby can would make it louder

    Louder isn't necessarily more torquey nor more powerful. Trying to remember what you've got. Is it a GSX750F ? Motad do a good system for that if you need to replace the original. Sounds a bit nicer than the original too but its not going to give you huge gobs of extra shunt. Nothing is going to help you there as its a 1980s oil-cooled motor in a sports tourer at the end of the day.

    If grunt is what you want, swap the bike for something like a Thunderace or, if your budget is a bit meagre, look out for an RF900.

    When I said grunt I meant more noise. I know more noise doesn't mean more power. Probably less more than not but I want to be heard.
