Another from NW UK ....
Hahaha! Well thats 2 of us in one night .... 
Hi all ... I'm near Blackpool in Lancashire, England ... I recently bought a CBR1000F-J, 1989 regd with 23,000 miles on the clock ... last owner has had her since 1994 and assured me the mileage is genuine. Its had some paint, so I'm guessing its been down the road a couple of times in its life! But Hey! Its 21 years old! It runs and rides like new, just needs some cosmetics.
I've ridden bikes since I was old enough to walk .... first road legal one was a Suzuki AP50 in 1977, then a Kwak KH250 in 78 ... yada yada yada .. currently own a 2003 Suzuki GSX1400 K3, a 91 Yam XJ900F (my winter hack) and now the CBR for some summer fun
I've attached a piccy for you to have a look at my new toy ... this was the pic I bought it from ... Like I said, its not perfect and will be an on going project!
I'm hoping to stick around for a while and get to know ya!
Have fun & be safe!
Regards,
shakey
