Welcome Jamie,

I live not far from Daventry... :doh:

It's a great forum as long as you can take a bit of ribbing, but the banter's pretty good. Some very helpful guys on here too with plenty of knowledge.

Thank you for the warm welcome Jompy, Petepassion, bub, samr1, chappo, CADmonkey, locke and stever1.

Ill put pics up weekend, on evening shifts this week, :whistle: lol

Ribbing? CADMonkey are you flirting with me? :oops:

I am a little too tall for the bike. Minimoto comes to mind.

I have my CBT Saturday and already passed theory then MOD 1 & 2. So I am a fully fledged newbie. Have experience off road. All road experience is in a car for the last 16 years.

I have ridden 2004 Hyabussa, RSV millie, YZF450 supermoto on road but it was on a private road...........

Thanks again.
:dance:

Here you go bud
"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 ;)"

Thanks R1Clarky.

Only going to ride her when there is no salt on the road as she is 16 and mint under that dust. I'll clean her tonight as she hasn't been cleaned for a few years. I think her average miles per year are below 440.

I'll get something newer for my main bike. (All recommendations welcome. I have 35 inside leg)

She has an optimiser! Does this need to be plugged in all the time?

Thanks
