New punter

Post by captain caveman »

Hello all,

New to this site. Started on a Thundercat then Thunderace. Then strayed over to a Gixxer 750 but now have a 2008 R1 in red and white (fastest colours).... so back in the Yamaha fold!

Welcome to the forum and yes red and white are by far the fastest colours . Although we do let the blue boys on here think they are fastest [emoji57]. This is a great forum so join in the fun and ask any questions someone will help [emoji3]

Welcome

Stephen [emoji3]

Welcome aboard Captain.
My blue one doesn't know how to go slow - no really. Sending it back in the morning :violin:
Enjoy the bike and coordinated under-garment. And the forum of course.
2012 & yellow - must be one of those anni's.

Thanks guys. On here for advice and banter, so will search before I start asking daft question - "what tyres" I'm trying Bridgestone BT21's just now. Just to start the first fight :D
