Hello Giorgos,
(had to re-read the name three times - Georgios is more popular due to a lot of greek restaurants in Germany)


<...>
But without fairing its no fun riding at those speeds anyway...160Km/h will do nicely.

You aren't satisfied with the Bulldog's (RP052) speed?
I don't need more speed - you may only ride it on german Autobahns and as Axman said, it's not really fun.
Maybe you should think about buying another bike which is initially faster ?!? :wink:

Hi Wulldee,

What the RP052 is?
The speed is OK but if i could have a little more speed just for the time that it will be need it then why not?

I like my bulldog so much that even i had to buy an other bike to have major speeds i would keep my doggy!!!!!

Regards Giorgos

Hello Axman,

interesting information - speed limiter

I have a 03 model, that means lots of bumping in case I would like to try the max speed, but that's not why the Bulldog was built, right?

I'm quite fine with speeds up to 160kmh (on motorways), on local roads I keep 100-130. What's weird - I tried my friend's TransAlp with a really LARGE fairing. Having 130kmh on his bike, there was hardly any wind on my helmet and that was no fun for me - like in the car. How much I then appreciated the ride on my Bulldog with a lots of wind blowing that is what I like... I know when I am fast.

Thanks for the number, preferably I would only call for a coffee

Hi Martin

should your trip take you to this part of Germany (Menden is 20 K´s from Dortmund and right at the fringe of the "Sauerland" wich means : Lakes, Forrests and lots of curvy roads, perfect for Motorcycle-Tours) give me a ring and I´ll have a guest-room and coffee waiting ..
