Hey,

I thought it was about time I joined here. Have had my 2010 R6 for a year, and loved every second of it. but unfortunately I managed to come off it a few weekends ago on the A85 (cheers to the guys who stopped, don't know if any of you guys are on here) in the process of rebuilding the front end just now. A lot of information on here as well which is helping me through it. Hopefully be back on he road soon enough.

Hi Jamie, welcome to the forum and sorry to hear of your off, thankfully bikes can be repaired, us humans can be more difficult, so glad you were ok.

Any questions just ask, I had an 09 R6 until a week ago and it was a fantastic bike.

So welcome to the mad house, join in the banter and have fun

Welcome

Stephen :D
