Blimey Dez, sounds like that S2R 1K might be a bit too much bike for ya!

I can swap you a 695 for it, if ya like.


2007 Monster 695 with a few mods.
2013 Piaggio Typhoon 50 2 stroke speed demon.

Cant get a new bling larger slave for $250 odd dollars?

Not only will it be functional and look great, you might be able to knock Brian off the Bling King perch :)

Well then perhaps I can add to that something:

  • unique and attractive colour scheme without the outright exclusivity of say a bayliss edition superbike
  • lowering link available
  • rizoma rearsets available
  • readily accepts a lowered seat off, say, a 695 Monster
  • high-mount pipes are standard (as well as practically every aftermarket set)
  • better (read: safer) suspension components than, say, a 695
  • better (read: safer) brakes components than, say, a 695
  • the track ability of an early model superbike without the impracticalities
  • during periods of limited track time the bike can be set up for someone perhaps taller and heavier without too much drama and used on the street
  • cost of a modified 695 + an S4R is significantly less than, say, a LE Bayliss superbike

Does he ... Oops, I mean would you like me to add any more?

I take it you haven't read the book "How to wins friends and influence people"
Life's TOO short to go slow !

Can't please all the people all the time.

Haven't read the book but my interpretation would be ... win Kaz's friendship by influencing you ;D

Now now guys play nice ;D

What can I say? They fight over me all the time.  [laugh] [laugh]

Looks like Dez will be back in the Reliable 695 Club with SIX95, Suzy, Luba and me.  [moto]

And Betty, as far as track bikes go, if I wasn't so damn short, I would have fancied my own Bayliss.  [bow_down]

Looks like it's off to Russia for leg extensions.  [thumbsup]

Hmm I would much rather take up Jukie's offer anyway Brian  [puke]

But I wonder exactly what she was offering [evil]  [drool] ;D ;D

Oh how is this for good karma/service from ducationly.com.au
Recieved an email this morning
On hearing my MPL woes and never having a unit fail before Peter Martin
contacted MPL who had a reconditioned slave ready to send  to me for free as a direct swap
if I payed postage , but as a condition not to open or repair my one.
Unfortunatly I got the offer one day late as we had already cracked it open and repaired it [bang]

Cool hay , what a great company willing to stand by their product even after it was FOUR years old [thumbsup]
So I would highly recomend both Peter's company ducationly and mpl  [beer]
