New recruit

Post by rcastillo »

I've been looking for a decent forum .. this looks like it'll do! :) So I've registered and I'm now introducing myself.

I've just got this and I'm totally hooked. The day after getting it I took it up to Aberdeen, and I keep finding excuses to take it all over the place! No bike has taken over quite like this one.

I live in SW London in TW12 (Hampton Hill) and I'm often up for a run somewhere, especially if coffee and a heart attack breakfast is involved.

Regards,

Richard

Nice bike Richard and welcome to our little family, hope you enjoy your stay.

If you want to meet quiet a few of us look on the Days Out Section for our Spring meet up in North Wales. I am sure you will be welcomed.

Welcome to the site. Nice bike - black wheels look great - just begging for a load of extras though!

Welcome to the site Richard. I'm a couple of miles away from you in Esher. If you fancy a run out next Saturday mornining, I could be up for that. I'll post a thread in the Day's Out section.

Cheers,

Paul

You really need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape.

Nice to hear from you all.

Yes, that is my friend's 'Busa in the garage.

Re extras on my bike, it just got a tinted screen, a pipe will be next I expect.

Paul, a ride out sometime would be good! Let's see how the week unwinds. I'll keep my eye on Ride Outs.
