    Hi everyone!!

    I'll just give you a brief summaray of me, I don't want to bore you straight away!

    I'm 20 at the end of this year, and currently own a 2003 600RR but am in love with Honda's after riding the 600RR and no doubt will buy a 1000RR in the next few years! I used to own an Aprilia RS125 before I got my big bike license and actually bought the 600RR 8 months before I got my license, it was love at first sight :)

    I've got a few 'tasteful' mods on the 600RR, including Tripage LED passenger pegs, Tripage INT adjustable tag bracket, Tripage 1000RR indicator LED mirros, Two Bros Carbon Black series exhaust, Zero Gravity double bubble screen, custom "Honda Racing" decal on the tail, Racing rim-tape and removal of the warning stickers.

    She was completely stock when I bought her and also had suffered from sun damage, the paint had gone pinky on the front cowl, tail fairing and the fairing under the handlebars, not sure of their name! I since had her re-sprayed and just 2 weeks ago fitted all the above mods. I also have Watsen Design LED flushmounts coming down within the next 4 weeks hopefully.

    My uncle also owns a 2012 Fireblade HRC scheme but won't let me ride it :mad:

    Here's a few photos of my baby!

    I'm sitting here waiting.....15 minutes so far and the pictures ain't here yet...

    Welcome to the forum. I have a lot of respect for you Jersey boys. I was there for a week last year and I swear I could here every decent sized bike on the island opening up, wherever they were. I figured if I could hear you, so could the old bill, so respect to every sport bike rider in the place as it's, surely, only a matter of time.

    Blimey! A 'blade on Jersey? Isn't that a bit like installing an elevator in a bungalow?

    Welcome to the forum mate. Nice looking bike you have there. I'd hate to think what the insurance would be for a blade at 20. It was bad enough for me! Still didn't stop me, nor should it you (if you can afford it).

    Thanks for the greetings everyone :p Makes a change to be actually recognised as a Jersey person, not very often you speak to people across the pond who have even heard of us, let alone spent any time here:)

    I'm working on getting my uncle on the forums, but he's not great with computers :p

    Welcome from a fellow Jersey resident and blade owner. As I am of a similar age to your uncle the insurance companies now class me as a classic and not the bike. Recommend you do the sprints down the 5 mile road, great fun. Enjoy forum
    :)

    Welcome to the forum..a fellow Channel Islander. Can't go wrong with a 600rr (not sure about the front on the new one though)
