Thanks for the welcome guys......i think it all comes down to personal taste regarding colours and models....having said that real yamahas are blue!...lol.....I have been to the UK and i reckon its a great place, could live there easy! The only issue is the weather but at least that would improve my wet weather riding skills....i live in place called Geelong which is on the coast of victoria.....About 20 k's from my place is the start of "The Great Ocean Road " which snakes its way along the coastal cliffs for about 150k"s...Its purpose built for the R1 and is pretty challenging....Anyway once again thanks for the welcome and let me know when the forum meet is...lol Cheers Andrew
