Hi folks,

my name is Stefan and I'm 30 years old.
I drive a Yamaha R1 .... you would say 14b, we here in germany says RN22.
I regestired in this forum, because i was searching for a Öhlins fork for my baby.

I saw that I have to make 20 posts, to make a new topic on the market place...
I hope I get success here with my searching request :)

Here's a pic from my baby:

Have a nice day

Grettings

Welcome in Stefan
Your english is very good buddy and we hope your sense of humor is just as good ;)
Unfortunately your links to your pic's are not working , i've tried to sort them for you but it didn't work :whistle:
Being German i'll take it your into the Hoff & Techno and if you have really good taste Depche mode & faith no more ;)
I think you'd get posting so you can get those forks :shhh:
heres some help with pic's
get yourself a free photobucket account & follow the idiots guide to posting pics from your pc
posting.php?mode=reply&f=6&t=10659
if you don't want to open a photobucket account then an alternative is go to
http://tinypic.com/

1 - "choose file" and browse to the image you wish to upload from your PC
2 - In the "resize" drop down choose either 15" or 17" screen (15 is enough and fast too)
3 - Press "upload now" where it will ask you to type in a couple of words to confirm you are a human being and not an automated program.
4 - Once done copy the text from the "IMG Code for Forums & Message Boards" field
5 - Then just paste it exactly as is in to your message.

or you can post direct from your not so smart phone using tapawank (tapatalk) it's great for posting pic's & notifications but wank for viewing the forum ;)

Hi jompy,

thanks for the advice. Let's have a look:

I hope everyone can see it :D

And at the short time in the forum, I have learned, that I have a 14be R1.
My humor is so black like the brake dust from my little one.
I really love the english sense of humor.

Stefan

Welcome to the forum Stefan , cracking bike, love the colour.

Don't worry about your English, it's better than half the people on here, me included and our German....... Well it's not very good.

The English are very arogant when it comes to language, we think everyone should speak English, whereas on the continent you are all taught English at school :clap: , perhaps we could learn something from our European cousins and I believe our politicians could learn a hell of a lot

So welcome and good luck in your search for the forks

Stephen :D

Welcome to the forum stefan.
I have been to Germany many many time on my bikes.
I used to go to Nurburgring 4-5 times a year and also toured down through the Black Forest and Rhine valley. The roads over there are fanstastic.
I must say I have ridden all over Europe over the years and the German people are amongst the nicest and biker friendly I've met.

Thanks for the welcome messages!
I think it's realy hard to find a used ohlins gabel for my r1... we will see what the time brings :)

@ Steve R1: Black Forest is my absolut favorite to drive! What also makes fun, was the Kocher valley. From Schwäbisch Hall to Aalen.

i've had a few chats about this & i think although we are a lazy race when it comes to languages and yes we can to an extent especially in the past due to our all conquering empire ( read that as wanting to selfishly rule the whole of the world ) expect people to know english , i also think that english is a stupid language , very hard to learn & therefore makes it harder for us to learn other languages and also they way our education teaches us to speak is fucking wank !

we're also lazy . . . did i mention that already ? :snooty:

Hi Stephan, welcome to the forum.
I toured Germany a few times a while ago with the band, played in Hamburg at an anti-reunification gig on the night of the riots, we took a stroll down the reeperbahn after the gig...against our tour guides advice :lol:

The BMW riders are crazy, but even worse are the old guys with their mercedes.
The BMW riders want to play and can't lose. The old mercedes riders didn't see you, and I think they use the star at the hood as a crosshairs!
Oh Margaret look a Biker... finish him!
