    Hi everyone,
    Got my 2012 Fireblade in December and joined the forum last month. Hopefully see some of you on the odd ride out (around Bristol).
    Still got my old Kawasaki ZX7-R, and it looks like I might have to keep it if I want to pass the noise test at Castle Combe.

    Howdy Tasker, welcome to the forum mate. And7rp2 has a ZX-7R and he goes like stink round Oulton! Also not worried as much about dropping it so he can relax more and ride faster.

    Welcome tasker, I was working in Bristol all last week and it looked like you've missed the snow, so at least you can ride yours!

    Welcome. Brizzle born and dragged up but now living in Lincolnshire with a very occasional visit back. Cadwell is so much noisier than Castle Coombe :D

    Thanks for the welcome all,

    I've got a couple of photos up for your enjoyment. The Kawasaki carries the battle damage from a track day at Silverstone in 2008. I really should sort that out.

    The new blade is lovely. Just run in, and hoping for a bit of dry weather over easter :)
