Nice noise! Do you always ride like that?
Re: Loud pipes save lives!! - ogri48 - 15-05-14
Unfortunately, yes. Though I do wear more sensible gear on me fz1.
That Bonnie does sound the mutts dunnit..love that bike. No good for a fast ride out or two up to France, but for just thrapping about on its ace..

It was proper fun in the winter...You can even take it out on the dirt, living in a farm house I often cut across the fields ( not so much now they have seeded lol) to follow the river wensum into the city, just for a very pleasant change. Gotta avoid the wet stuff obviously, otherwise you spend more time digging the mud out between your front tyre and the mudguard with a stick than you do riding...

sounds quality mate! nice one
Re: Loud pipes save lives!! - ogri48 - 15-05-14
thanks dude..its got 42,000 miles up but dont burn oil, they are deffo a good lump, think the 900cc hyde kit has been on it more or less from new, pipes are straight through hydes too, but it seems to be jetted well for (you gotta love carbs), certainly bottom end is strong even too up. its got a great vibe, you just gotta resist the temptation to try and jump a fence every now and then..
Re: Loud pipes save lives!! - dazza - 15-05-14
:lol Made me chuckle, that is Ogri in his happy place. I like it. :thumbup
Re: Loud pipes save lives!! - Lez72 - 15-05-14
Lovin the Vid. You seem like a top bloke too 8)
Re: Loud pipes save lives!! - ogri48 - 15-05-14
very kind but dunno about that mate, just the same as you lot i guess, i love me bikes, though the missus deffo loves me, even if she does call me a daft old sod at least once every day.
Re: Loud pipes save lives!! - red98 - 15-05-14
Great vid ogri.....thats what its all about....one man and his bike :thumbup ............wish I had a mrs like yours and I bet iam not the only one on here thinking that
Re: Loud pipes save lives!! - Kosmic Kartman - 15-05-14
Sounds propper plumb :lol
Re: Loud pipes save lives!! - VNA - 15-05-14
That's sounds ear splitting. Just as well you live out of the way on a farm!
Don't fancy that firing up next door when I'm having a lie in :eek :grumble
VNA's been thinking aboot a second bike (or 3rd assuming I get my 1974 C90 back one day)
For some reason I keep dreaming of Aprilia SL1000's (Falco)
Bonnie looks like fun though.
Re: Loud pipes save lives!! - ogri48 - 15-05-14
Uh huh..ride close enough and It sets parked car alarms off, you gotta love that about it too..
You could do a lot worse than get an early carbed Bonnie mate, though it's gotta be black, noisy and unkempt, with what little chrome there is covered in permadirt...
Penny is a good un, far better than I deserve, we met kinda late in life but we are making up for it
