Big John

Hi ya Andy bud. Sorry mate I misread your last statement about where you live and misread the motor way junction I thought you said the m27 but you didn't my fault... There are jobs down this way but you would have to live here you know... Can't help mate but if I do hear of anything up that way I will tell you but very unlikely mate with me living down here you know what I mean bud... Big John...

I think the camel out fit looks wicked both leathers and the bike... Awsome...

Both of them look miserable they obviously do not know how to smile for the camera...

That must of f***ing hurt... What a crash...

Andy big John here bud. I live in Fareham mate. Let me know what area you are from and I will keep my ears open for you bud. I have some contacts in the bike trade... PM me with the area you are from..... Big John...

How you doing bud. Did not realise you were in Brighton mate I'm just up the road from you. I live just outside of Portsmouth if you have heard of it...

Your really lucky splinter bud. I came of my Suzuki TL 1000R at Hampshire and snapped my wrist. Had to have it plated and pinned with titanium nuts and bolts. The damage to the bike was just over £4000 needless to say the insurance accessor wrote the bike off. The best joke of it all was I was only doing 40mph.... Just goes to show you that you do not need to be flying to write a bike off and yourself too......

Really funny bud keep them coming......

Beezkneez.... Thanks Geordie for the help and advice bud. Really appreciate it bud... John...

Please can you help me bud. I know that this is nothing to do with what you are talking about but I am trying to get a pic on the forum and cannot. Have you any tips bud. When my wife tried to do it for me it said something about the administrator has not given you access to this facility. Then it said something about a subscription????? Have no idea what to do now, Please can you help me Geordie... Many thanks in advance... Big John...

How you doing bud. Can I tell you that I bought an Arai lid brand new, had it three weeks and binned my bike. The bike was a write off but the lid had no damage well virtually no damage and I thought to myself well I can still use it for a while after all it cost me £400 and I have only had it for three weeks... Little did I realise how stupid I was being. I was advised to scrap the lid. Apparently after you have dropped a lid on the ground or had an accident with the lid you are meant to destroy it, Replace it straight away would be my advice as it will not give you the full protection it once did... Thats what I learnt even if there does not look much wrong with it, damage it a lot and then skip it. Go buy a new one bud...

NICE XT WHAT A CLEAN AND TIDY BIKE BUD......

Hi all. My name is John and I am from N.Ireland and a new comer to this site. I have read what merv wrote and Andyrose and I have to say thank you bud. I do not like the piss taken out of the Irish people and would ask that person and he knows who he is not to do so... I Thought I had found a real home when I came onto this forum and thought to myself here are people like yourself John like minded about bikes and crazy mad about them... I have read through all the boxes and the stuff about that person who calls himself Irish and that is an insult to me but I have to say I am not pleased that the forum have people like that on here... I thought that this was a site/forum for talking about our passion BIKES and all having a laugh and getting on with one another. If you have nothing sensible to say then just keep your mouth shut. If you have something that will be of interest then lets all hear it but if not then I ask you nicely please say nothing and keep it to yourself ok.....

I'm not long new myself bud... WELCOME TO THE SITE...

For me it has always been a bit of a mixture I'm afraid, Honda, Kwack, Suzuki and my last was a TL 1000 R so this time I have a XJR 1300 so I will be sticking with them. I cannot see me going elsewhere I am a faithful so and so I'm afraid...

I found that Carole Nash was the best out of them all. What a great price and a fantastic deal they put together for me... I found that there after sales service was a real bonus too which is always good when you consider things. There is nothing better than being totally satisfied and you will get that with Carole Nash promise... You have nothing to loose give them a ring and see what they can do for you bud. You will not be disappointed... Happy hunting... Big John...

I wish hey.....

Geordie..... Thanks for the welcome Im sure the banter will be great... Have a good one bud... Big John... Yamahead... Thanks for the welcome. Thought you would of had the XJR 1300's over there in the USA but obviously not. Well all I can say bud is that you don't know what you are missing. What a great machine... WOW!!!!! Hi Liquidcooled... Bit of a long story but let me put you in the picture. My wife is Scottish she is a low lander from Dundee now we cant hold that against her... Tee Hee... I'm from N.Ireland, Ulster, now as I am a faithful Rangers supporter and my wife is Scottish I picked the Scottish flag. I also have a lot of Scottish roots so the Saltaire means a lot to me. We are now living down in the south coast of England and have been for the last six years... Would of picked my home flag but they did not have it in the set up. You will have to tell me what part of S.W. Scotland you are from I am always interested in things like that. Have a good one bud. Tell me a bit more about yourself I always like to learn people. So now the ball is in your court but don't bore me too quickley...

Hi All Big John here. On for the first time as I am a new member. I used to ride bikes a lot of years ago and recently got back into them I just could not leave them alone. I guess it has something to do with all that power between your legs and the wind in your hair or something like that Use to have a Suzuki TL 1000R on a 52 plate what a bike a V-Twin with a lot of grunt but now I am bikeless. I am in a deal with a friend of mine at the minute and am buying his bike of him which he is selling next month or so. I will then be the proud owner of an XJR 1300... Cant wait I tell ya. Anyway thats enough for now from me I dont want to bore you all to quick...
