Still not as good as the black ones yet.....

I would NEVER say the yellow ones are faster/better,but Daves was black and he was faster than me...hummm...I leave all of that to you blokes!! BUT, my Yellow one was loud as some of you will remember from our little bimble round the Brecons 2 yrs ago with PeteL and playerone and nige etc as I recall Playerone going out n getting himself some CC cans afterwards BUT I have to admit, this bike is defo a lot louder and mine was loud! I have my fantastic hubby to thank for all this pleasure as he was the one who paid for my CBT after I kept saying for yrs I was gonna do it...4 yrs coming up 5 and points free FOR NOW!!! hee hee..I'm in love....again...umm umm um!

.He is my rock and I couldn't do it or have this much fun without my wingman and his support..Looking forward to seeing some of you again as we now live SW Wales not too far from Llandovery further SW but we are on the route to loop Llandovery - Abergavenny/n back round the Brecons

Maybe 'Marravtr' will bimble out this way once he gets a new bike..IF anyone is selling a similar bike, please get in touch as Dave on the look out for a newer model/or a Blade. Cheers peeps

Strange thing is I am up in your old neck of the woods this week with my bike..in Kirkcudbright!
so having dried out following the biblical deluge coming up on Monday, I just took my 16 yr old out on the back and we had a great run out Dalry over to thornhill then the Dalveen pass then back over to Leadhills and Wanlochead, back into Dumfries and the home via the coast road. Sun out but still f windy, but boy do I miss these roads Yep, all my old neck of the woods for sure, we used to live nr Auldgirth and I still have my Dentist in Thornhill believe it or not I'm going in Sept the long way to mams back in Ncle via thornhill..Mad I know, but he's brilliant and down here i've a 6-9mth wait just to be seen!!! I figured I'm going all the way up the M5/M6 to cut over to the NE I may as well just do it and head to mams from there..It's only cpl of times a yr..lol..
Will have to meet up in south Wales so you can show us the roads Down there. For sure, Dave is home in November and I hope to be picking up Marras bike next sort of 10-12 days ish n have to work out some logistics of how i'm picking it up etc..so yeah, that'll be good..


Oh and yellow ones are still faster

Hi Kev

Was all set for a Blade and saw Marras!! Fell in love on the spot! Thought about the SP1 as Dave offered to buy me one but to be honest didn't fancy riding over a coin knowing whether it was 'heads or tails' lol..They are a hard ride and more suited to dave than me lol..As it turned out, I got a fantastic bike at a great price so was too good for me to pass up and I never thought I'd get another Storm as good as my previous one...Wrong!. still looking for a bike for Dave that he can do up and put his own spec to as it's not worth paying a lot of money for his with him now working overseas 3mths away/3 weeks at home so if anyone has a half decent Storm they want to sell at a reasonable price that he can do up, let us know..I just bought a Mazda6 sport too so bike gonna have to be reasonably priced..He sold his as was gonna be sat there for months on end not being used! Time for a rejig!
