Hello GSX-R 1000 K9 gone this month, new 2012 Fireblade ordered for March Located North Wales Nice site regards Grizzle
Bit further inland - Wrexham - Gateway to the best roads, especially if you know when and where to go
welcome Grizzle. seem a lot of GSX-r owners in the past 6 months going to the blade. look forward to your review of the bike when you get it mate Plus i'm doing a trip up to Snowdonia via mid wales early may so may be asking for advice on roads and B&B's upo there is you know of any
I get a bout as far south as Llandridnod Wells, then a sharp right to the coast and back thru Snowdonia. Will do a day to Brecon as went to Cardiff that way and the road from Brecon to Merthyr is gorgeous! Not too good with places to stay but roads.....oh yes! I really loved the K9 1000, once I got rid of the whales willy exhausts and put some arrows on. The BPF front end lets you get away with loads. The bike had done 13500 miles in 30 months ( Doesn't go out on the salt), 2 trips to the nurbergring a week hooning aroung the Isle of Man, never let me down and always made me smile Fireblade was always a bike I wanted but the deal was never as good as anywhere else, nearly has a 2011 pre-registered S1000rr but that deal went west last month, been into the Honda dealer, saw the new bike made the deal there. I had test ridden the 2009 blade and a 2006 just before buying the Suzuki and enjoyed both of them...but the deal was poor.
Welcome Grizzle, luckily I have an L0 thou gix and a blade for now so I can choose which one to thrash lol
hi grizzle. is that arsehole of a pig still kicking around? Bunstrom was it? with his anti bike zero tolerance shite?
Go to 'settings' on the top right of the screen, then it's about half way down the page on the left Grizzle.
lol, short cut!! only the 2nd time i been on here via pc, usually fannying about on me phone and have to do things a bit different cos things fall off the screen.
The problem I get is posting from the PC all day and the iPad in the evening it's a bastard to view youtube and when I get back to work I forget to look. And the PC doesn't auto punctuate, so I forget to do that too. f*****g Apple.
Thanks re the avatar Nah, Brunstrom gone ages ago, we got a nice new chief now, has been very tolerant, he rides a GSX-R 750 I hear, but the local news reports recently state a massive increase in fatalities in North Wales from the record low of 2010, so am expectin a bit of a surge cpome the good weather. The fatalaties were mainly car/van/pedestrian but that matters not on a sunny weekend. Timing and location for a ride out are all inmportant !
