Hello from the West Mids
Hello,
Recently found the forum.
I have a R1 5JJ road bike which hardly gets used and 4XV race bike which i started racing this year.
Love my bikes and love my racing particularly the TT.
Hope to get involved and find some good resources for my R1`s
Thanks
Mark

Re: Hello from the West Mids
Hi mark and welcome to the forum, this is a fantastic place for peeps who love everything Yamaha. We love pics so post some of your R1. Lots of good humoured banter and p!ss taking, none of it's offensive and we all really do get in very well indeed. Admin here is also great, they let the members use the forum exactly how a forum should be used. If you have any questions ask away, someone will know the answer and be willing to help. The community spirit on here is really really strong.
So welcome and enjoy the banter, laughing and joking, when you get to know us you will realise we are all ok..... But a bit mad from time to time....
