Amen to that sir
I started loving city riding only when I realised that the Unicorn is a bike that loves corners to straights.. For sheer straight line ability i'd give the Uni a 5 on 10.. Quite simply no punch once you get past 80 clicks..
For handling abilities though she gets a niner

The Banshee (kinda liked the name for the 'One) on the other hand will be orgasmic to behold.. Im sure she can pretty much take anything you throw at her
Some cornering exploits in explicit detail we needs..!!

Will express my feelings in one short crisp sentence: I do not have the guts to wring her neck in ANY gear and at ANY speed. It is no joke that I've named her 'Banshee'. (maybe another 5000 clicks on the odo under me could change things though)

Take two. I never knew you so wanted to 'walk' an R1 on the leash. Just treat me to a good cup of coffee while you two take your minutes and hours...

Default great initaiative~!

GIR I - One 1000cc, one 250cc + two scoots
GIR II - Two 1000cc's + two race bred 150's
GIR III - Three 1000cc's + a quick 250 ????

From 100cc city commuting to touring on supersports, India certainly is Shining~!
