    Hi
    Nice to meet you, I would like that but I'm in the process of putting my bike back together after a little wheelie incident went wrong. Even though I had crash bungs it still managed to destroy some of the left hand side, mostly cosmetic apart from stator cover grinding all the way through, foot peg clutch lever etc but would definitely be up for a ride as I usually go out on my own

    Sorry to hear that about the blade. I've only every been out on my own. Normally for a ride to Rutland water and back. I'm no Rossi but if you ever want someone to go out with when your bike is all better let me know. Dry weather only though ;)

    Hi and welcome matey, sorry to hear about the bike.
    I try not to wheelie as see people on You tube a lot better than me doing it n crash, maybe the odd power wheelie that's my lot.

    Yes, it's better if theres a few people to ride with, someone to ride with and against def makes you ride better.

    And nice to talk sh*t with when you stop for a tea !!

    Toured abroad a few times now and a thing that is a highlight of my year.
    Def must do.

    Hi all

    I put a question on one of the forums asking if a 2005 swing arm would fit the 2006 cbr1000rr but not a lot of response.
    Is this possible??
