Just always remember Biggles, that us Aussies were the one's who originally shipped over a whole load of prime Merino stock to you Kiwi's!!! We made sure we picked the prettiest ones to make sure you couldn't resist!!!!

Just to add on a serious note, a carbed bike feels more "savage" than one with fuel injection. I find FI a lot smoother.I don't believe bum dyno's, but that's the feeling I get. That said, I'm fairly sure my 10 has more torque down low. Twist the wrist in most gears, and you're gone.

I disagree with this. I find that EFI bikes may well be more responsive once the throttle is opened, but the off to on transition is still jerky with all but the rarest of fuel injected motors. By pure design, CV carbs are incredibly smooth. They operate on vacuum remember.

Why doesn't Westy have carbs then.....yeah just as I thought, talking out your ass again !

The only downfall of the 10 06/07 is the brakes, but if you commute on it or dont push it to hard, you dont need to worry about it.

Now SG, I think the 10 is a fantastic machine, and I'm having all sorts of (wet) dreams about one as a track bike, BUT, if you commute or don't push it hard YOU DON'T DESERVE A FUCKING 10!!!!!

thats rubbish Dave, and u kno it...

what looks better posing at the coffee shop?? what looks better at the supermarket when ya need to whip down for sum milk??

yup...a 10er...

That's why riding REALLY slow down a straight street like Lygon St, or Chapel St, wearing thongs and a helmet is a sure fire way to get ALL the ladies!
