sacrilege .............

I was at a rally at the weekend just gone - couldn't move for cars...... people climbing out of their four wheels all leathers and cowboy hats, waist coats with wallets dangling on chains, badge city.....

Met Minky in Southport and sat on his CCM - mucho presence. Surprising. Hadn't anticipated it feeling so 'big' for a 450 - liked it!

Mmmmmmm......... no, this is not a CCM thread............. just sayin' ...........

I test rode one at Haggs Bank in September - even with my limited experience / knowledge of bikes I wasnt very impressed. My old MT has less vibration :P
