Hello.... another newbie here

Post by daviedevs »

and Happy New Year.

Im Dave from Nth Staffs...own a Guzzi 1100 and a Yam Super Tenere.

Im currently looking for my old R1. Reg number T782 OBL. Painted in Virgin Mobile colours.

It was sold to a chap in Dundee a couple of years ago by a dealer in Chesterfield. I missed it by a day! Gutted.

I have done a quick online check and the bike is still MOT'd till July 16 but not currently taxed.

If anyone on here knows of it please feel free to PM me or email me direct daviedevs001@btinternet.com

I would love the chance to buy her back.

Update on bike search!

Whilst browsing eBay I spotted my old Thunderace for sale. I part exchanged the Ace for the R1 a few years ago.

As I can't find the R1 I decided to buy my Ace back. Needs a bit of work to restore to the way I had it so this years scheme will be "Project Yellow". Watch this space!

Sod's law the R1 will suddenly appear now!
