Newbie from Scotlandshire
Hi all,
I'm Steve fae Scotland.
Originally from South East London, but escaped back in 86.
I'm married with three kids and 2 grandkids, but will never grow up
My bike history started back in 1981 when I picked up a brand new RD125DX, since then the highlights have been an RD350YPVS, a GPZ900r A7, a ZX9r C2, a GSXR1000 K4 and my current 2004 5VY R1
This was taken on Saturday (first run of the year)
I've owned it for 3 1/2 years since I totaled my GSXR and nearly totaled myself.
As you will see, I have made many modifications to it to make it the way that I want it, including:
Modded Termi slipons,
Micron decat pipe,
A&R smog plates,
Krankvent,
K&N airfilter,
PC111 and custom map,
Gipro gear indicator,
Speedo healer V4,
Hel brake lines,
EBC HH pads
Stainless front and rear disc bolts
Titanium front caliper bolts
Gold probolt titanium sprocket nuts
Stompgrip
Tygon resevoir tubing,
Titax stubbys,
35w 6000K HID's,
PIAA Highs,
Led running lights,
Blaster x tail light,
EK MVXZ black and gold 520 chain,
-1 +1 Driven sprockets.
Harris racing, Gold quick release fuel cap
PP Tuning rearsets,
K-tech front + rear springs,
Carbon Hugger,
Carbon exhaust shields,
Carbontank sides,
Carbonfront mudguard,
Puig light smoke screen.
Watsen design indys.
Gold powdercoated wheels
Datatool S4 green alarm
Datatool snitcher (text alert)
BT016 front / 023 rear tyre combination
And probably more that I can't remember
And for the gixxer haters, here is my last bike before I killed it

No post crash pics I'm afraid.
By the time I got out of HDU my bike had been written off and carted away to the big salvage yard in the sky
