Welcome in Stuart, agreed red and white the best colours :clap: . nice intro bud, but some pics pls, we love pics on here. This is a great forum mate, and it sounds as though you have already helped Pete with his headlights.... Nice one :clap:

Sorry about your off, hope you are ok. Bikes can be repaired, we mere mortals can't be replaced.

Enjoy the forum mate.

Ha I used to be on a welsh site for bikers and use to have a right laugh lurking when it kicked off, the friendly banter didn't always stay friendly, but made for good reading at times lol

Sorry to hear about the loss of your mate, bad times out there at the mo.

Just been out for a spin over the Gower with the mrs (see rides a yzf R125) first time out since the off, nice to be back out but confidence has taken a bit of a knock, but hey confidence can grow unlike lost limbs or lives....
