Post by YETI »

Hi all ,
Just wanted to say a quick hello and thanks for my honorary
member ship to your group .
I met a load of your members over in Cartagena whilst doing
some trackdays with Focused events , and what a crackin bunch
of guys they all were 8-) .
Sorry for gate crashing here as I have a HONDA :o but when you get
made as welcome as you members made me feel then you have
to say thanks .
so THANKS VERY MUCH fellas , was really great to meet such a great
group of guys .
With luck I`ll see you on some other tracks UK and abroad :D .

be precise and just over 19st ... and knockin on 50yrs old
Image
your lot LOL .

MY BIKE`s :
I have 5 VTR 1000 FIRESTORM`s ranging from standard out of the box
up to rarer than rockin horse poop should be in a museum ex race bikes
as shown above .
the rarest being the one with black wheels of which only 2 were made
and mine is the only running one , the other is in a museum in Japan .
The one with orange wheels is one of only 6 built for BSB in the UK and
again this is the last complete and running one .
The others are a standard one I brought from a dealership in Surbiton
brand spankin , a one off special ( I`ll post a picture of that in a min )
and another track only bike which I`m trying to make a bit special .
the road bike below
Image
My meat and potato`s is MORIWAKI , a tuning company in JAPAN for me
they can do no wrong ..

Ok that's me done .... lets have the good n bad reply`s LOL
I love this bit !
