Question

Well, usual story - full of withdrawal symptoms from the bike racing season, encountering a road full of ice (no, not the Marshall Mathers LP played loud), a bit too much handbrake and <bang>.

So, this prompts my first question: Any got an STI 16" gold alloy they wanna sell?
Pretty please?

I'll let you have a go on my Sanyo Honda Britain CBR. Honest. You can make all the brrrm brrm sounds you like.

James.

Its gods way of saying 'get rid of them my son, here is the ideal opportunity, go forth and buy silver/anthracite'

Yeah...but....had the opportunity to buy some Prodrive 17" alloys, but they won't fit over the STI brake calipers, and I really can't afford to do the brakes as well.

Well, not with the new CBR engine, the Ohlins for the R1 etc. etc. etc.

You know how it is.... ;-)

Yerk....Kinda pricey compared to 230 quid for
a single new one...

I know, I know...5 of them, plus tyres...but, it takes my little kerb incident up to around 1400 quid. Thats 4 sets of 207GP*s!!!

Purely OOI, do they all have new Toyos on?
