Hi everyone

Post by bognorgaz »

Evening guys and gals, my names Gaz or Gareth I own a 2000 5JJ that I have had for 5 years and I can't see me ever getting rid of, my perfect date would be, sorry wrong forum! I don't get out as much as I would like due to my children keeping me busy. I am to be found occasionally hooning around the south downs as I live in Chichester.

The horrible grips have gone, they have been replaced by a nice set of Renthrals.

It's nothing spectacular, it started with a Honda Tact 50cc followed by a CD125 Benly (classic wish I'd kept it) then as a 17 yr old I discovered cars for a couple of years. Next was a Yamaha DT125R, along came the full licence to be completed with a Bandit 600 naked in red (Sexy :dance: ) I replaced this with a Yamaha Thundercat, this was a great bike. Last but by no means least came the current steed.

Thanks for the kind comments folks, the only upgrades are K&N Flter, Fuel Exhaust, HEL Brake Lines and a custom paint job on the wheels.
