COUNT ME IN LIISA!
how about it? disabled rider on the worlds sexiest bike giving real world opinions? Ok im excited now!
twenty years experience, list of owned bikes too long list of ridden bikes even longer. Bob and Keith at kliktronic could do a temporary install and ill ride it and give you one scorching review!
lets get it going Liisa - this is gonna be fantastic!
ok real world time. Ive come to accept that bike mags dont like people like me. i dont know why but maybe its reminding readers of our vulnerabillity as motorcyclists. We only seem to turn up in mags as novelty items - like the 'and finally...' items on the news. Shame really. eight years ago I was the same as you - well, i wasnt gorgeous and i wasnt a lady but you get the idea! And now I have one leg.
Seriously I doubt you'd let Bob and keith muck about with the ZX10 - it being so new and all that but maybe you will? Who knows!
Valentines day soon Liisa, Ill be expecting a card!
All the best wayne. AKA zombie http://www.ukbikeforum.co.uk

.. hope it goes through and you get to play... but RIDE magazine? I suspect not. If they do let you play I might even buy another copy after I boycotted it for being boring and predictable. 
and wouldn't it be good if they did?
