Hi from Gibraltar

Post by eizoz »

Hi everyone,

Firstly please let me apologise for not introducing myself before posting in the 'sales' section.

I am from Gibraltar, southern tip of spain, my name is Albert and i used to own a 2006 Yamaha R1 50th Anniversary until about a year and half ago when i swapped for a 2011 Aprilia RSV4 Factory aPRC SE.

I am new to this forum, though i did register ages ago though but never actually activated the account.

I used to frequent the R1-forum (sorry), in which i have also posted my sale, but thought that this being a more UK based forum it would be easier to flock the stuff i have for the 2004-06 R1 & give someone what i think is a good deal on good stuff that i took off the R1 before selling.

Also in case it matters i am a pretty active user now in the aprilia forums under the nick Eizoz_RSV4, in case anyone wants to check that i am legitimate etc...

I think that more or less sums it up. Here is a pic of my old R1 and one of my new ride (in case anyone wants to see it)

Also forgot to add that i frequent the Jerez track fairly often :)

i can always check what the postage is to where ever you are mate, no harm in checking.

how long will you be in aragon? maybe if it's not sold by them i could have it shipped to the hotel if your there for a few days... just an idea :)

Welcome mate,

Stunning RSV4, this was my next choice of bike if I didn't get the R1, the only thing that put me off was reliability and the nearest dealer is about 40 mile away, but what a cracking looking bike, :whistle:

Hello Chief, You have found a forum that has all sorts, some have Yams, some like me have gone track only with the likes of a Suzuki, some do enduro, Motorcross and or Super Motard, I hope you stop here for a while and get involved with a forum that has no equal. Trust me we do so much for all that need it. If you like that idea join us on trips, it may involve riding drinking and laughing though

Nice 5vy stuff BTW and I do like the Ape 8-)

Tuck in behind me, i'll show you the best place to crash

Stopped drinking, smoking, taking drugs and running sex parties, luckily ive still bikes to corrupt me 8-)
