(Cheers, Wobbly.)

We`ve got our own Sub-Forum in motoring so I`ll start the ball rolling.

Quite simply, What do you ride ?

For me, on the road it`s a 99, Fazer 600 because it was such a bargain.

Trackdays, A 91 VFR 400. (NC30)

And in the Garage, the long term project is a 1990 GSXR 750L which I blew up and haven`t quite got round to fixing.

I ride a '96 Gpz900r, but i've also got an '84 Gpz9 and a Z1.
I'm flirting with a ZX9R, so i guess something will have to be sold.....
Any offers?

Honda CBR 600 F-L 3rd love of my life (Wife and Son come first) she's been SORN since about May though, needed the money for other things. I also have a GPz 305, she's been SORN since 2003. She'll probably need a rebuild before she gets ridden again. Battery is Dodo.

Got a Honda XL1000 now, had a SV650SY for the last 4 years... was a great bike,but terrible for any sort of long journey. Xl1000 is great alternative to the BMW F series and about several thousand pound cheaper

I used to ride ST1100 Pan Euros in the job, for all of about three months, early 90s.

Don't know why but the bug never bit me. I never felt that safe or confident on a bike.... Sorry. I've never owned my own bike. (Well, a grifter when i was but a lad, but some big lads nicked it, and we know where my life went from there).

My ex had a ZX9R in black & silver - its the only reason I miss him!
It was one of the few race types that I could sit on comfortably - as most seem to design the pillion for people under 5ft!! It was so comfy I fell asleep on the back of it on the way to the GP at Snetterton along the A14..... oops!!!

I need to pass my test so I can get one myself I think!!!

Ah, flowing lines. Lovely wheels. Quality plastics.

It's a nice bin.

Is that your motorbike in front of it?

GP's at Snetterton........... Hmmm think you need GPS !!

I ride a 05' GSXR600 and the other half has just passed her test and got a GS500F.

Like to do more track days than road riding as the road is full of complete tw@ts who are either to young or to old to be allowed to operate a 4 wheeled lethal weapon.......

Hey - it was a long time ago!! I've slept since then!
More likely the Superbikes.... but then I didn't take too much notice, being too hungover to function!!

First bike was a Honda VFR 400 (NC24) and then graduated onto FireBlade RRW. Unfortunately 2 crashes (neither my fault but due to Fcuking Powell v Moody I lost out and lost all my NCB) I am now bikeless. I miss my Blade.
