    I did all that mate, several times and with several variations of the pic but still to no avail.
    I have a feeling that fotopic pics are not linkable or something. If you click on http://newimages.fotopic.net/?iid=yvyn8x&outx=600&noresize=1&nostamp=1 nothing happens but if you copy and paste the url into a browser the link opens.

    Sweet bike mate.
    There's fewer things prettier in this world than a well kept V Max IMHO.
    Much nicer than the new incarnation.

    Nah it's great crack around town or twisty back roads. Loads of torque, very light and nimble. The seat is like a plank of hard wood though so long spins are a no no.

    I imagine it is savage to ride.

    Me? Akros on the KTM. The baffles are still in but it sounds sweet without being too loud + they are about 2 stone lighter than the stockers.

    Well done. Is that oil pressure gauge a permanent fixture?

    It sure is, I got it on Ebay a couple of years back. Good spot.. Also changed the old school coils and HT leads for 20th century coil on plugs off a gsxr. Doesn't miss a beat...

    Well if it's wheelies you fancy, get yourself a supermoto and even better a 650cc supermoto ;)
    Although the KTM950 SM or the Ducati SM are fairly handy at the wheelies too but a bit heavier.

    My wet tyres were completely fooked and I had about 6 or 7 lowsides that day! That picture was taken just after I saved a lowside with my knee but by doing so I nearly fell off the bike! :rolleyes:

    Here's a pic of a saved lowside. Front is tucked (wheels aren't alined if you look closely) but I'm holding it up with the knee:

    Was lucky not to hit the deck that day I tell you!

    This smiley is a perfect representation of how I looked lowsiding all over the place that day!

    The worse was on my first flying lap when I took the first corner at about 240kmph and I felt the front tuck... Wasn't showing off then I tell you!

    More about this dreadful day here: http://www.biker.ie/forum/showthread.php?t=78814
