@ Hobbs
I haven't even been watching much SA soccer, Chris Ronaldo, Tevez, Roony, Ronaldinho, Kaka even Defoe etc. . . . Are a lot more interesting to watch, i enjoy watching the trio Tevez, Ronaldo and Roony absolute skill, they don't waste time,make it look easy.
I'd love to try out an E90, you will be blown away by its video capabilities, as far as i know E90 packs the TI OMAP 2420 chip set which includes a Graphics accelerator, Accelerometer, and a DSP sound chip same chip thats in the N93i, N95 and N82, ive seen a lot of people with E90, and it makes me wonder if the owner actualy knows how much power it carries.

@ Hobbster: Yeah, likewise re SA soccer viewing. 1995. Mark Fish, Lucas Radebe, Neil Tovey, Innocent Buthelezi, Hellman Mkelele, Shaun Bartlett, Pollen Ndlanya (?) et al. World rugby champs & winning the African Cup of Nations. Just the Proteas returned empty-handed..again.

@ Jojo: Nice pics, mate. That 1996 model Suzuki GSXR750 (SRAD), the red one in the foreground, has a gold tank & fairing from one of the 2 other 1996 colour options (besides the usual blue & white offering, like the one in the background. Hmmm, accident-repaired, methinks.

I dont watch soccer fullstop Gucci but when it comes to watching Bafana Bafana against the Might of Africa I always get behind them only to want to kick a whole through the door.Its not that they physically/skillfully inferior.Its that 'intelligence they lack.Its hovers above most our sports teams,Proteas/Springboks included.Its a South African thing.

@pop - Yeah, looks like the BIKE was repaired What I really LIKE amongst those bikes was the: RED Kawasaki Ninja . . . though NOT sure if that's a 600? or a 750cc one The Suzuki SRAD is the IN (most famous) 2-wheeled BEAST-vehicle at my end during that time (2000) . . . [addsig]

@ Jojo: That's also a 1996 model (the colour scheme gives it away and is definitely the 750. Another clue is the location of the 'Ninja' logo. It's the same model as my friend Dale's. Although his is the more trademark green.

@pop - Oh . . . so in the PICs I've posted . . there are 3 (1996) model bikes 2-SRADs and the Ninja . . . The black one is an oldie (like the one used in MI2 . . . and the Honda VFR-400 model one.


2 days to GO and it's Big-Bikes-Browsing time . . here and in the P1i Picture Thread . . . am I right, Professor [addsig]

@ Jojo: Yup, will post a variety of P1i pics in both threads. That bike in MI2 is actually a modern model, a 'streetfighter' styled model made by British manufacturer Triumph, called a Speed Triple (referring to its 3 cylinder engine). I think the other bike in MI2 is also a Triumph, possibly the 995 Daytona.

@pop - Yup, it's a TRIUMPH (MI2) . . sometimes I MISTOOK it as a Honda CB-4 or a Suzuki counter-part anything that has to do with a BLACK-colored bike, btw, ya consider that a CRUISER or what (the one in the pic . . .). [addsig]

Oops (can't edit on the P900); that should be 955 Daytona; there's no 995 Daytona. ;-)

@ Jojo: Some are known as retro bikes or 'muscle' bikes. If it's a modern sports bike with it's full fairing removed, replaced with fancy bling and/or go-faster bits etc, then they are referred to as 'streetfighters'. The one in the pic is probably a retro-styled bike, as the generator cover looks like a slimmer, more modern design. The clutch basket cover and alternator covers stick out a lot more on the late 70's & early 80's bikes.

@pop - Yup, that's it MUSCLE-bikes ! I remember seein' Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sly Stallone riding on those years past ! How I really envy your Professor for knowing all the bits and biscuits of Big Bike parts . . . the part which I am only familiar with is where they put in the gasoline . . . I think that is called: Cat-Eye Headlights [addsig]
