New to forum from Aus

Post by nicedat »

Hi guys and girls,

Im always after info on R1's so thought I would give you a look in :)

I have 3 R1's and an Rvf400 at the moment. All race bikes ;-)

Great weather and tracks are close by, within 20 minutes and open most weekends.

Welcome, good to have someone else from this part of the world.

Should warn you, there'll be a whole lot of other members wanting photos, your life story, etc. Ignore them, they're just nosy!

Quick translation: sausage = banger = big bang = cross plane crank.

Welcome to the forum Peter, we have a few members in Australia and NZ . You have come to the right place for info on R1's and unlike other R1 forums that will remain nameless we are a friendly and helpful bunch . We love to getvto know new members so a few lines about their biking history and pics if their r1's usually helps to break the ice as they say . It allows us to getvto know you and vice versa.

The guys on here have tons of knowledge and are always willing to help, oh and we Limeys, Scots, Welsh and Irish have a strange sense of humour which thankfully your fellow countrymen can join in with.

Anyway welcome to the mad house

Stephen :)

The other two are both 5jj's, one might be going to a new home on the weekend.

I have owned a few bikes, 75 CB400, ZZr250, 96 Zx6r, 99 ZX9, 00 TL100R, 01 R6 a couple of RGV250 race bikes it goes on.

I currently race one of the 5jj's and RVF400 and the 09 will be on track soon.

not quite sure how to get pics uploaded but when I do I will.
