Hi my name is Darren
I've been been a member on here for a few months so I thought it's time to introduce myself!!
I'm from north Staffordshire 42 years old and have ridden since I was 17,my first bike was a Tzr125 then on to a Rd350 ypvs f2then moved over to a Suzuki Gsxr750m & Gsxr750 wt.In 1998 the R1 came along and blew my mind I brought a 1999 4xv new and I have had it ever since.I have a few other none!!! Yamaha bikes as well.
I tried to order a R1M for 2015 with no luck,but tried to order one for 2016 and got one.
Thanks for reading Darren.

Hi, I would say welcome but you've been here longer than I have
I too missed out on the 2015 R1M fiasco, was determined not to miss out on the 16, just feels like a way off yet, this waiting is a pain.... I want my bike!! Not ridden a proper bike since I sold my S thou beemer last August, only got my old T-max
Anyhow Darren join in with the banter, start some topics, ask questions, fill yer boots mate, enjoy

Welcome to the forum Darren, like you and Paul, I too missed out in 2015 but have been successful in 2016

, just waiting till she arrives at my dealers .
Welcome to what is by far the best ever forum in the world and the only one with a primate as a boss...... You will get to know monkey face aka Jompy, he is a top bloke, really helpful , but don't tell him I've said that.
We have a great level of banter on here, a good laugh and the guys are very knowledgable about, well almost everything. Join in, have a laugh and remember there are no cliques on here, we are all equal.
So welcome and enjoy the firm and yiur M when she arrives
Stephen
