Hi Mate, Where abouts in the vast metropolis of Chippenham are you? I used to live on London Road but I know Town quite well as I also run a recruitment business for a company in Wales, so Ive done leaflet drops all over town! (for my sins!)

Hi Taff, Mel here - thought I'd join too - and have a look around. ;)
Hello Wiltshire Bikers :) - hope to see some of you at the Lysley Bike Meet (on a Monday) in the coming months [smiley=thumbsup.gif]. I currently own a Busa, a 1200 bandit (winter hack) and a ZZR600 (Rat bike).

Welcome to the site. Whats the busa like?? Had a mate who had one and he sia dit was well difficult to keep the front end down when winding it up.
The Busa is due to go back on the road in April - over the 'winter' it had a TRE fitted and all the fuel filters cleaned and a basic service. I expect fitting the TRE will probabaly affect it somewhat as it removes the restriction in the first 3 (??) gears. Its a 1999 full power model anyway .... So I'm going to have to be a bit careful when I first get back on him. Looking forward to it though ;D
Being a 'girl' I tend to be quite careful [smiley=rolleyes.gif], and I also carry my son on the back quite a lot.

Hello Mel hope you are well, might well be up the pub tonight
Glad to see the weather is getting warmer, the beginning of last week was bloody freezing, my leg mussels ached when I got off my bike in work.
Anyway lets hope the weather picks up for later
See you
Welcome to the site, hope to catch you at a meet soon :)
