Started riding 5 years ago (when i could get my full licence - 21st b'day)... first bike was gsxr 750 K5, had that for a year then moved on to Kawsaki Ninja Zx6r 08 got bored of it and bought myself the Widow maker last year. Had one fall right at the beginning on my GSXR when i came off (30mph if that) luckily had the full gear on and been allright since touch wood.
How do i upload the pics?

Cheers

GSXR750 for your 1st bike, brave man. R1 looks good though not sure about the bar ends.
