Hello all,

just thought I'd drop a line and introduce myself.

Been riding a GS for a few years and been introduced to a good friends R1 (2012) over the last few months, then been to watch a few track days...well I guess you know how this is going! I'm now the owner of a 2008 R1 track bike (pictures to follow if I can work it out).

I guess I will be mostly asking track related questions and queries around set up and parts.

Be nice, I will be king of asking stupid questions.....

Hi mate welcome in ,picture of ur bike min request and no such thing as a stupid question

Welcome in pal and as Sam said

A question only becomes daft once the right answer reveals your thinking to be - shall we say abstract

Welcome in Johnny
King of stupid questions ! I think you seriously underestimate the stupidity on this forum

Welcome in mate. Enjoy your new toy.

Welcome to the forum Johnny , and as peeps say the only stupid question is a question that is not asked. Peeps have a wealth of knowledge on here so just ask away, they love helping new forum members.

Oh one thing though.....

Queen of stupid questions here !

Don't listen to monkey face aka Jompy, she gets really upset if you have any sort of fairing on a bike, hers is naked, it reminds her of the days spent in her youth swinging in the trees

Oh and we have a strange sense of humour as well

Welcome

Welcome in mate

No daft questions unless they come from

I am sure a few on here can help you out

What spec is on the bike, I may have a few bits if yours is standard ish

Loads of us are at Cadwell 10 11 &12 may doing a forum track frenzy, pop along and join us for the craic or ride

Hi, welcome

Cheers everybody for a nice warm welcome.
Reading a few forum topics and I can see the levely of humour I need to aim down to

I've been busy over the weekend taking fairing off and damaged parts I have inherited (bar grips, speedo cover, crap stickers etc). Just starting to clean it all up now.

Regarding what spec it has on, I couldn't honestly tell you, that is how high my knowledge is. From what I have looked at everything seems to be pretty much standard apart from brakes, suspension and race fairing etc. It has had a power commander on previously but doubt I will need that for now!

Got a spare set of wheels so just getting a new set of tyres and some wets for the spares. And saving up for tyre warmers. My pocket money is quickly running out!

By the way, I don't know the difference between a reply and a quick quote, how to post a picture, change my signature........and probably many more things which make it look I have a vague ability and knowledge on forums!

With a quick post you can still scroll down & read the rest of the comments on that post , with the post reply you have more options like embedding you tube videos . In the main forum under the newbies section is the forum rules & guidelines you should be able to find a lot of answers in there including how to post pics from photobucket , how to set up tapashite & how to embed YouTube videos amoungst musch more , we all started somewhere

Look at this section there are some very helpful topics on there

Cheers guys. Much appreciated. (Using quick reply)!

Still no bloody pics of the bike though

Welcome to the forum pal

Just a lil tip for ya, if you use tappatalk on ya mobile to view the forum and you have pics stored on ya phone you can upload without using photobucket

I confuse everyone but not as much as Cilla & then there's pinnit . . . . .

Sadly it says the forum has disabled photo sharing from this forum??

Trying Photobucket!

Nice!

It works
looking good
