Been riding since I was 17. Had a variety of bikes, 33bhp GSXR400, Hornet 6, slightly more than 33bhp RSV1000 when I was 19. Then a Kawasaki ZX636R, VTR Firestorm, Honda 954 Fireblade and now this.

Also ran an R6 and a hornet cup bike on track and an XR250 for green laning at various points too ...
