    Hi All,

    Just took ownership of a 2014 fireblade 1000rr a couple of weeks ago, not really been out on it yet but have been scrolling through your site which has been great, have spent a wee fortune on it already because of this, everytime I look through the posts something else catches my eye and before you know it I’ve ordered it

    Roll on summer

    I know EXACTLY what you mean. Happened to me last week and ended up driving to Glasgow on Saturday to buy this:

    2014 is a nice model. Hope you get some decent weather soon. There was certainly no sun on Saturday!!

    This would have been more appropriate on Saturday 989AC127-FF9A-4AF7-BD36-712E4ADD7C08.png

    That’s a nice MV Augusta, take it you had a van to transport it back home.

    Nup. I've arranged a 'specialist' m/cycle transport service.

    BTW, I thought I'd had my fill of Repsols over the past couple of days, and now you post a bleedin' watercraft. Shame.:rolleyes::rolleyes:

    Good one, Lozzy. Reminds me of the days of canvas 'lap rugs' - but in this case taken to the extreme!!
