    Hi There,

    First post (I think) been registered for a while but never posted, anyhow the name is Mick,
    very late 40's, living in sunny North East, had a fair selection of bikes, some Honda's, some Kwaks and quite a few Suzuki's.
    This is my first Blade and had it since Jan 15, can honestly say I think it is possibly the best bike I have ever ridden, I know lots now have more power and more bells and whistles but this bike is way better than my ability so I'm more than happy.
    Also have a 1983 Katana which is nice for a tootle about :)

    Hopefully there is a picture attached as we all like pictures.

    Hi welcome to the forum, good to see a Katana again I had the 650, 1000 and the 1100, went from a 250 Superdream to the 1000 Kat within 4 months of passing my test on the Honda.
    Nice Blade

    That's fantastic Mick, was my dream bike as a teenager! Not many around now so worth keeping hold of.

    Hi Mick, welcome to the forum.

    Nice intro there...

    There's a few of us based in the North East and are about to set up a revolutionary faction to stop southerners coming up here to ride our roads ;)

    I enjoy the craic just as much as technical info...
