Hi firestorm1997, yeah sounds cool, I am a fair weather biker though, sunny day, sweaty leathers, cant beat it! Aint done much riding in a long time so considder myself a total newbie too, did all my falling off (a lot) on my first bike, yam dt50 30 years ago, did my crazy riding not long after on a suke 250GT with no liscence, those were the days! Last bike was an FJ1200 but it had major probs and I sold it cheap, def wouldnt considder myself experianced, its just in the blood like other hobbies i have, they never leave! :D

Yeah I think that was when we were allowed to put an 'L' plate on a 250, I didnt bother, just did a lot of coast runs with mates on the back.

How gay are we talking here Smithie? Chaps and fringed jacket or Gimp mask and straps? I only ask so we can judge whether he owns a Yellow or Red storm!!!! :biker: :Gay:
