One black intruder rides with us . Man the torque on that thing is insane. 1/4" extra twist on the throttle and the rear wheel starts spinning , even with those 225 section tires.

The one I see often is MH registered. The owner said he bouhgt it second hand for 10.5L from someone in Bombay.
Yep I've seen the 'good lookin miss pillon with a cute helmet' as well!

It looks like one of those open faced types that you get for children! Haha

You better keep some money aside for a few sets of clutch plates when you're ready to buy the bike

I got that exhaust for him. Its so loud that he asked his mechanic to quieten them a bit. Wonder if the mechanic was able to do that.

Yes, I know him very well. He's also got a blue '07 Busa with Two Brothers exhausts which I got for him too.

The Rune actually has 'anti rust' on it because the owner doesn't ride it.
