Welcome to the forum Jim, its good to see another Brit on here we seem to be on the increase lately.
So if you have been a "silent stalker" you will know all about our Australian contingent I will say no more
If ever you are in Kent give me a shout and we will go kill some bugs together

Don't listen to sawnee, Jim!! He's a WEREWOLF!! He's a WEREWOLF OF LONDON!! He doesn't want to kill bugs, but rather YOU!!

Look! I have proof!! (Warren Zevon told me...and I quote)

"He's the hairy, hairy gent, who ran amok in Kent.
Lately he's been overheard in Mayfair.
You better stay away from him, he'll rip your lungs out Jim.
Huh, I'd like to meet his tailor."



(I had to... It just fit sooo well )

Default Hello

HELLO, 29/m/myrtle beach, SC new to the bike scene. Never rode a bike before let alone own one up until 1 week ago when I traded my 225,000 mile 97 thunderbird for a 75,000 mile 1993 honda CBR 1000f. Alot of people say thats too much bike for a beginer but i've had no problems so far. I really dont see what the big fuss is about, only thing I find scary about it is getting tickets because it reaches 60mph without me even realizing it.

J, You'll love this bike and the ride man

but

.............
"Never rode a bike before let alone own one up until 1 week ago"

"I really dont see what the big fuss is about"

Here's the jist of a conversation my nephew DAN (26) and I had yesterday (he's rookie too)


Respect............Respect The Bike

Take your time...............You'll do okay

Get over confident then get ready to be very surprised in the wrong kind of way.

we just try to look out for our brother riders round here 's'all
