photobucket aint workin or id post up ma 94 cbr6

ma cossie went on fire last march so after that i fancied a new test.insurin another cossie with yrs ban,9points,fire claim and loss of 4yrs ncb wasnt gonna be easy

passed ma test 2nd time round at start of june last yr.1st test made 1 TINY mistake after a faultless test.2nd time round i got ZERO minors cos i was that focussed

bike insurance was £740 odd TPFT and i was 23 then.HALF the price of the cossie renewal i had through before takin away the ncb again!!

would never go back now and wish id never wasted sooooooooo much money on cars when bieks r cso cheap.

some1 above asked about mpg?!

my bike does 100miles to a £10 every time.raggin it non stop!

tax is £45 per yr pmsl

can we have a bikers forum pretty pls?!

oh and can any1 get me a cheap 2piece alpinestars suit pretty pls?!

just done the direct access mate, had 3 x 3 hour lessons and an hour before my test, then went out n had a play on the Gixxer when i got home, what a bloody difference from the Kawasaki ER-5 i was learning on



to be honest it suprised me when i first rode the kawasaki, throttle response was instant, although after a while i soon got used to it n it felt a bit slow by the end of the course, but the gixxer never feels slow.

Thing is on a big ish bike u dont feel like your goin fast then you check the speedo n ya doing 50 in a 30, or 100-110 on the motorway, u just gotta be careful n watch what ya doing.

if youve rode a bike before you will piss it, just a case f polishing off the rust thats built up by not riding a bike man, you'll be fine!
