Congratulations! You can't beat a bike for a bit of summer fun. Pity the weather's so crap at the moment.
I've got a Yam R6 for road use and a Honda CRM250 for green laning. How many others have got bikes and who's going to the NEC this week?

I can't make it the NEC but I will definately go next year, my mate has gone up on his ninja with a couple of others (GSXR600 etc) - dont think I'd have been able to keep up even if i did have my bike!

Lucky Sod. Couldn't quite afford an R1 last year. Just wrote off my '98 GSXR750 and insurance was a bit of a problem:(

John - I hope you've got a big garage. The CBX1000 would take up the full width of mine!!

Going to the NEC tomorrow:D :D :D Taking the 2***** though 'cos its all cold and wet.... Err I mean the R6 isn't taxed at the moment. Honestly!

Mmmm insurance was a problem for me too:(

Especially as I had just written off my Thunderace:(

First year wasn't a problem as got a good deal through Yamaha.

Second year Yamaha decides it won't cover anyone without 3 yrs ncb.:(

Got quoted over £2500:eek: (just for the ones who would quote :( )

Finally got ripped off for £1400:( Still expensive but still beats the amount I would have lost had I sold the bike.

Not too bad now though as have my 3yrs ncb:D:D:D:D:D

Have fun at the NEC, I can't wait... its like Christmas, I don't sleep much the night before cause I get sooo excited :D:D:D:D

The Cbx is not as bulky as it looks
The exaust sound is something else It sets off car alarms a half trottle.
