Just wanted to give an update - I've been reading this book and wanted to let you guys know that the motorcycle in question is actually a Kawasaki H2, which pleases me to no end. Practically everyone who writes about the charm and passion of motorcycles talks about the British or American marques - this is the first time I've seen a book with a Kawi as the star!
At the part I'm up to now, the antics of the author are very, uh, sophomoric - as in it's easy to get sick of hearing how much he wants to get laid - but I expected that from the reviews. And he recognises that his past self was extremely immature, so I have confidence that things will pick up. It's definitely a small-press book - it could seriously do with some editing - but if you've ever talked to your motorcycle I think you'll still enjoy it.
