Hi, new member and new to Yamaha but not a new bike.

Recently bought a nice 99 R6 with fairly low miles and in great condition and looking forward to using the forum.

I'm in Cheshire.

Lol, I'm sorting some pics as we speak. I've been on a few other forums in the past so the skin is whale like!

Do you allow sale of private plates on here? The last owner has included the plate in the sale and it's of no use to me and it's going back on its normal number.

Hi Ken and welcome to the forum mate, i've just bought an R6 too, that's for the track though.

As said feel free to put your plate up for sale, but be warned if you say its been valued at a rediculous price then expect a bit of pish taking :D

Hola Ken, welcome to yamaha world. Loads of experience on here, so if you don't ask, you won't get.

SteveR1 : I went to see a pal over on Sage Close last week. What's that from you, 400 yards ????? He's not a biker but have known him from my pony express days early to mid 90's. Nice little run out it was as well. From his gaff onto Woolston Grange, onto M6 at Thelwall, jump onto the 56 (with that 1/2 mile sweeping left hander ) dive onto the 60 off at the 67 and home in Hyde in about 20 minutes. !!!!
You still do your Saturday morning run outs ??

Welcome... as a fellow newbie myself I can say they are a great bunch... very welcoming... nice bike
Riding an R1 is a little like poking a hibernating bear up the arse with a stick, when you doing it, its great fun but when you get caught out it will f**k you up!
