What a fantastic feeling that while BMan, (Typhoon Cars),  is stuck in an endless stationary queue of traffic on Los Angeles' Highway 101 due to a minor accident, I am zipping past it all on my Honda motor-bike without a care in the world... 8)...!

I see the new camera is getting plenty of use Fozzer ;D
Personally I'm a big Honda fan (have owned a couple, and burnt off a lot of mechanised mess-tins with them), but I'm not a huge CB500 fan, its a sound bike, but couldn't you put in a shot of your Blade just for little old me?

Paul, there is only one thing wrong with riding the lines between the lanes over here.....its called Lane-Splitting and its ILLEGAL !.......Law was made for safety reasons, as you can well imagine...........
.....not that I ever did it......I rode the shoulder and when confronted by the local coppah, I told him I needed to cool my engine or he would have more reason for plugged traffic lanes........ 8)

Well you should ride something with a water cooled engine Ken, or alternatively do what I do, and go so fast the police can't catch you ;D ;D ;D

...they even have their own race series...bless 'em... :)...!

Thanks for that shot Fozzer, lovely piece of kit that.
I know what you mean about the wee twins being faster on the twisties. Mind you my cousin had a CB500 and it couldn't keep up with my old VF. Could be that I'm a bit of a nutter though...... I ride like I fly? There is a scary thought for all the motorists ;D ;D ;D
Hopefully I'll get a blat on my friends GSX-R 750 tomorrow for a bit.... And the police pursuit cars here are Skodas ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D Could be a v.good day :o

Well I posted a picture of my bike, so here's the car...

It's a Ford Mondeo ST220, 3.0L 24v V6, - about 255BHP on a cold day  ;) not really that fast in the scale of things, but it makes a rude noise, and is pretty discreet - keeps the rozzers at bay!  ;D
