    Hiya,

    Decided to join having just 'surfaced' from 'Project Blackbird' - re -building a black 2000 model CBR 1100XX Super Blackbird. Now its ready for the road!

    Don't know if its traditional or not, but as I love anything on 2 wheels, I thought I'd include a list of bikes owned so far ..(roughly in chronological order):

    FS1E [smiley=thumbsup.gif]
    RD125
    CB250RS
    GS550E
    GS550EX
    Moto Guzzi California Vintage
    CBF1000
    FJR1300 [smiley=thumbsup.gif]
    Honda Goldwing GL1800 [smiley=thumbsup.gif]
    CBR1100XX SuperBlackbird [smiley=thumbsup.gif] [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

    I enjoy touring (Ireland and west country mostly), as well as keping the skills up with a spot of training (completed IAM last year). I like cold weather and so tend to ride more in the winter than the summer. I like a bike to be very fast, comfortable and with loads of gadgets.

    Other likes are: Beer, beer, food, more food and er more food. Oh, and empty roads. [smiley=beer.gif]

    Dislikes: Speed cameras, doddery drivers with flat caps, anything that's badly designed, going to the cupboard for a pickled egg and finding the jar's empty (a tragedy of epic proportions). [smiley=rolleyes.gif]

    Seems like a good forum. Looking forward to making some posts.
