That's good be nice to meet a few new people with similar interests ! I wouldn't mind coming to the yoc meet once a year is it's possible will definatly do so on the ride out forum part

Me and Matt are looking to meet some nice friendly people here for a nice ride out and a beer in a local pub on the nice roads of Brecon

Some of the nicest road to ride on round that area not that I know yet as I haven't ridden a bike on them but have been a pillion a few times. Well we no doubt will join in a lot with the people who enjoy the social interaction lol especially a pub and a good ride out but not sure how many of you guys get down this way

Steady on now airhead we are slightly out numbered had to get a few welsh guys to join the party lol

Welcome to the site mate ! You'll enjoy it some nice friendly people here as I said ! Go easy on him guys he's popping his forum cherry tonight !!

Welcome mate!

cheers meatloaf !

I can imagine , I do feel like its not the best of choice with me getting this r1 but its immaculate and a great price miles are low , it just had to be bought , ive always said I wanted a more touring upright bike like a bandit 650 naked that was going to be my choice until this came along and I couldn't turn it down lol.but it brought me here so its not all bad and I love the look and the bike itself was my favourite when I saw one as a youngster, even tho I always favoured the blue over the red, but the red and white has grown on me a lot. offspring isn't a cheap hobby lol always forking out for something mate ! not the cheapest of hobbies lol glad I don't have any just yet but I have 2 nieces and nephews that cost me a small fortune lol

appreciate it obriens65! how long you been here mate ? what you riding ?

had a visual of you supermanning down your local hill just then that's the way to do it mate . think you will ever go for you full licence or quite content on your sr125 ? nice little bikes tho aint they quite popular. 6 years that must of taken a battering rip your little 49cc lol

haha well I can imagine your glad to be back on the two wheels my friend! happy days im just lucky I fall outside of the restricted bracket basically means im getting old now lol. what bike you riding now then mate ? does your woman enjoy going on the back of you ? or you abit to crazy for her on it lol

I am 26 now which takes me out of that bracket I done the full motorcycle licence which allows me to ride anything I want I done the direct access. so I can jump on any bike I want now with a full motorcycle category on my licence. ridden bikes as a youngster all the time and looking forward to getting out on the roads. also thanks for the warm welcome glad I joined heard its a good social site for abit of banter and a good chat and information.

Morning all if your in the UK lol blackhat250 cheers mate, yes I will be taking it easy for a while haha thanks very much cant wait to get started. Sacha no problem at all I will upload pics asap for you guys to see.

hey James welcome mate! newbie here myself and not far away from you mate ! hope the weather stays nice for you to get out and about mate. xactly the reason why I joined meet some nice people with the same interests.

cheers for the advice mate, yer I will be out when we have the nice dry winter days

yes of course I just read that you can put it on the wires and didn't really seem a sensible option to me so I thought id ask if you have experienced it mate. any advice is always welcomed. I like to look after the things I have.

sorry mate im not familiar with it but I did just google it , anti corrosion designed originally for aircrafts ad suppose to me very good to use on bikes. you had much experience with it ? any places you should not apply it ?(on the bike I mean) haha

Thanks AndrewElvisFan . it was an amazing feeling passing as ive put it off long enough!

airhead unfortunately I am not , and no practical jokes on a newbie please haha what is it mate ?

appreciate it mate thanks im hoping to, sooner rather than later

cheers for the warm welcome, having it in December because that's when I can store it properly , so the friend is currently keeping it off the road at his at the moment even tho I am itching to get out on it lol but patience is a must haha

haha @ airhead isn't that like swearing here no just and old school R1 which I cant wait to get out on. my initial choice was the bandit 650 but I couldn't turn this opportunity down lol

Hey Sacha thanks for that. the bike I am getting and already paid most of it off is a Yamaha YZF R1 2000 model in mint condition. Happy to be here!

Hey all, Welsh newbie here guys just saying hello. happy to be here and hopefully will become part of the furniture. not that most will be interested but passed my motorcycle test yesterday on first attempt which im very happy about. and will be getting my bike in December. I know its not the best choice of motorcycle for a newbie but it came at a perfect price with 8500 miles on the clock full service history from a family friend. was to much to turn down, even if I don't get on with the bike ill make money on it if not break even. sensible young lad anyways and will be taking it slow, its about the freedom and lifestyle for me not the young immature summer riders showing off(nothing against you guys haha! Apologies for the mini essay just a little quick intro cheers guys and gals!
