Now thats what I am talking about :lol: :lol: 8) I want a bike that makes me feel special every time I get on it but I have a list of must dos, I am a bikeophile like you Tim but I am definately more sports orientated. I am really glad you like it mate and the back up testimony from Mike makes me want to have a go even more ( I know what he likes to do to bikes :biggrin ). That leaves me one question.......... When can we meet up?

Blimey Tim, I thought you'd been a bit quiet lately on here. I can see why now :lol:

That's one beast of a motorcycle is that, they sound awesome IMHO.

Did you trade in your CB1300s for this bike :?: or do you have two bikes now :?:

Lets get something sorted in September. Who knows, the ones who moan there are no rides out on here may even turn up :)

Are you planning on doing the Wales run?
I am hoping to make the Wales meet in some way or another but may be away in Germany....the company keep changing the bloody dates so I cant be sure.

Glad i did, because the buzz i had when i got first CB wasnt there witht the S bt it most definitely is with the R3, love it.
Tim,
That sounds like a good enough excuse to me for changing bikes :D

I've just been looking up the spec's for this beauty. I must say very impressive figures.

I best not mention what I said when you got the 13s in Jan this year :lol:

But I can't help myself from posting this :lol:

:worthless_thread_wo_pics:

Take care on it mate,

Chris.

Jim, tell your company to stop messing, surely they must know when they are going to wage war on Germany? Just get on with it
I have a new job mate, i am now an engineering consultant 8O They trust me to go and look at prospective components/assys to see whether they are any cop. Looks like I will still get out and about about around Europe. No wars with Germany mate they would kick our butt (BMW/Merc tanks verses Royal Enfield side car outfits :lol: )

Didnt realise you're out now mate, thought you mean the RAF :)

Good on you mate, 23 years is a bloody good stint, well done.

Now, about that £10k you owe me.........................

You can give me some money and a B road scratcher if that helps :)
I am not out until Sept next year, I got promoted and moved into the higher echelons of engineering (well higher for a non commissioned erk like myself)
