Another new guy

Post by Biker123 »

Hi
I have actually been a member for a little while reading the posts and have grown to like this forum.
I would love to tell you all about my gorgeous R1 but I sold it 3 months ago, it was a 2009 14b. I liked the bike but I owned a 4C8 before that and much preferred the 4C8. I didn't really get on with the 14B as much as I had hoped
I plan on buying another 4C8 but probably not until beginning of next year now,
Anyway guys keep up the good work I like to read the funny posts on here.

Welcome mate.
the 4C8's are awesome, I too had a 14B but preferred the 4C8.
Stick around and if you have any photos of your past r1's get them up :)

Welcome mate, at this rate there could be a shortage of good 4c8's soon.
