A motorcycle, silly.
I don't usually name my bikes, in fact this is the first bike i've ever named and i didn't even name it.

But allow me to introduce you to Winston...

I have to say, the lights are growing on me massively.. I have seen the dual round light conversion on youtube which also look really good. As well as the singular round headlight (not the previous models stock round headlights).

Before i got the bike i was looking up demon & Angel eye projectors. But i dont think so anymore. Maybe sometime further down the line.. if it doesn't look silly that is..

V twins are also nice.. but then so are inline fours if you got the right end can haha. However, nothing beats the sounds of a quick and nippy 2t.

I'd love a modern 2T roadbike, styled like the KTM Duke 390 but with a 300cc 2T engine

I had a KTM 300 EXC converted to sm, it was very silly but the gear ratios weren't right for Road riding and unless I had a custom sprocket set made would not have been easy to sort

ah thats a shame. Only issue with Sprocket changing on bigger modern bikes is the speedo and odo issues. Which is annoying! Like my STR, it has -1/+1, probs need a speedohealer. Doing 30mph past speed traps on the speedo when im probably actually doing 26mph haha no wonder i get cnts sitting so far up my ass

Older Triumph ECUs let you in to alter ratios and correct your speedo

It was more that you can't buy sprockets that fit it to give it a decent road use ratio
