Welcome to the pack! Sounds like, you've been around the block a time or two. ;-)
Always good to hear a new voice.

Welcome aboard Jelly!

There are quite a few UK members here. Perhaps you'll find another riding buddy here.

Sorry to hear about your coming off the bike. Glad you're ok.

Be safe.

Welcome to the site, Ewan. Let us know how you like the 1000F once you get in the saddle. It's a lot different than the 600 and I'm curious to hear your take on both of them.

hi, will do. am lookingforward to getting on the bike and seeing how she rides, i am in the middle of giving it a good all round service as it has sat for nearly 6 years in a garage without being rode or put on the road. it should be interesting once the bike is ready. i will put a pic up once its sorted, many & safe riding thanks ewan

many thanks, no real damage done. just a few broken bones and cuts, was more interested in my bike rather than me. both have been sorted and am back on the road, so gives me the time to sort out my new bike (1000f) looking forward to getting that on the road and having fun. take care & safe riding ewan

Thumbs up Welcome from the Uk

Hi Ewan,

Welcome to the forum and the world of CBR1000F.

I'm guessing your from Wales but whereabouts are you now?

See you on our 2012 road trips

Cheers

Rick

Thumbs up South UK

Hi Ewan,

living down on the south coast near Portsmouth.

Look up 'guestmap' and pin yourself to the map.
