ey up everyone,sold the zx9r and had a year off while the nipper was finding his feet
(and VOICE FFS)
back on two wheels thank fook,picked up a cheap classic bike,
just need insurance,tax and a new effin battery.

god damn i missed it.
even more reason to head out on long rides now for peace and quiet!!

the lil mans 2 next week,cant believe it,it goes so fast.
hes been in the terrible 2's stage for a year and a half thoConfusedCry
cant remember the last good nights kip or day of peace lol.

hes learnt to scream and pretend cry/throw a wobbler for no reason whatsoever so thats fun.
(picking TOO many traits up off her indoors methinks!!)

wouldnt change a single thing though.(except the noise...and rest..
nice to be back on the old site,sorry but i cant stand ewt to do with bikes when i havent got one,
bike racing,magazines,forums ect,it hurts to much and depresses me.

how are we all doing then lads?what have i missed Shocked

Welcome back,having kids is fun isn't ?

It's far better when they're grandchildren as you can spoil them and they give them back when they play up.LOL

Still basically the old crowd on here,still taking the p*ss so you won't see too many changes

Don't wish for that mate,it happens all to quickly as it is.

It seems only a few years ago my twins were crawling round,they're 30 this year and I don't know where the time went.

Makes you feel really old

Proud............but still really old LOL

paid £600 for it,cant believe how well its cleaned up tbh buddy.
lotsa hours,sweat,few cans of degreaser ect wheels were nearly black wi sh*t n gunk.
plenty of power in the old girl,hating the narrow back tyre though,
they were a 160 as standard,needs a 180 slapping on it but theyre nearly new bridgestones
so have to do for now.gets plenty of admiring looks which surprised me,
i guess folk fondly remember old bikes they had back in the day.

anyone know where the idle/tickover adjuster is on these things??!
its below 1000rpm and needs to be 1200rpm.

hi nicky mate,exhaust fetish hasnt dwindled i see lmao,
your yellow peril is looking awesome mate!

glad all familys are good.so good to be back.

Ps stick with correct tyre for rim mate as the narrow rim will just pinch a wider tyre in and your contact patch reduced plus u will have massive chicken strips lol.

hey up old pal.
yea,i normaly fit the tiny g.p cans from sp engineering as soon as i get a new/old bike,
had one on the aprilia,zx9 and fireblade,but i like the look of this remus,
its full system as well,manifold back.it cleaned up great with the good old solvil.

sounds interesting too,bit of a growl to it.
any bikes a good bike imo when you have been without one lol.

i was saving for the £2k mark but itd have took me till the end of summer
so this will do for this seasons riding and going to work on and build on it at a later date.
i wanted a blade again as i do like them but a decent ones aprilia money and theyre no were near as good as the ape,best bike ive ever owned
