Evening all, I would like to introduce myself. My name is John, among other things, my friends call me Grinner

or John-boy, I have just turned 45 yrs old, am married with no kids, just a ratdog called Jazmin. Reasons for me to be on here with you guys. Having changed from an early Blade (selfish apparently

) after a year to a GSX14 for 5 yrs I had to let her go due a back injury (not my back, hers, now that's selfish

lol), I have had to get some money together but refused to be bikeless, so bought myself a VTR! Great move me thinks! I shall go into more detail later.
So go get yourself a pint at the "INN" (no shorts though, I can't afford it) :beer:

Well done on doing your research first.

Welcome to the forum :beer:

So from you first post I'm guessing you will be doing some touring with pillion onboard. You may be a contender for raised bars.

Hey cyber, no no no, there will be no pillion goin on due to wifes back, funnily enough, already taken handle bar risers off, so if anyone wants them?
