Hey there everyone, Feel a bit of a fraud joining this forum, but as an ex Fireblade owner, I thought you would not be to angry with me As I say, I am an ex-Blade owner, I used to own a 59 plated Repsol standard bike and loved it Unfortunately, circumstances beyond my control meant I had to part with my machine having only owned it for 9 months I have recently been able to purchase another bike, but couldn't bring myself to paying more for another 59 Repsol than what I sold my bike for, and as I am now the owner of an R1. I'm sure that one day I will come back to the fold, and so wanted a place I could come and visit that would keep me in touch with what's going on. So, a bit about me: I'm 46, married with 3 daughters and work at Gatwick Airport. I've been riding bikes on and off since 1990. Have owned, Honda CG125, Suzuki Bandit 600, Kawasaki ZX7R, Yamaha R1, FZR1000, HD Sportster (I know, it's a weird story), back to ZX7R, Honda Fireblade and currently on a 59 R1. That's it for now, hope to say hello to some of you
Thanks for the welcome guys. I'm sure I'll be back on a Blade again soon enough. Sometimes you just have to lose something to appreciate how much you miss it
Thanks Remal, unfortunately I muffed up my first attempt under username Turkish Couldn't find the registration email, so re-registered under Ahmet and used my wife's email. Would be grateful if you could tell me how to delete the account Turkish so that I can use my own email....Sorry for being a dunce
Dave, I posted some photos in an album, not sure if you can access it, as I'm new to forums. There's a pic of the R1 on there, f you can't see it, let me know and I'll try and post a pic on here
