Well done on finally getting a sports bike!
You'll get used to the position in no time if you ride it enough.
We'll have to get out and go for a ride again seen as it has been about 2.5 years since the last ride
Has it really been that long?! Christ! Have to sort something out. You'll get used to the position in no time if you ride it enough.

£2650 for a 600, isn't that a lot?
That's what i sold my 2003 1000 for, it was in excellent condition with 21K on it,
I can only assume they hold there money well as they are easier to insure.
There were cheaper ones on eBay/gumtree, but they had sThat's what i sold my 2003 1000 for, it was in excellent condition with 21K on it,

tty photos and crap ads. One went on for ages about how quick it is. I don't want to buy a bike of someone like that. Insurance is still a far bit for me. Paying £35 a month at the moment give or take. The K1 1000 I was going to buy was £1,300 a year!

Ah cool, I'm based in Barton could be up for a spin sometime. Was going to go on the greasy spoon run on Sunday but I'm giving it a miss now as I'll still be pissed!
Cool, drop me a email if you fancy it. 
Wow...£1300, there are advantages to being old, on my K7 its under £300 and i only have 2 years no claims.

Today is a year since I picked the GSXR up (called Suzi by a friend). Just over 5,000 miles completed.
I still have a massive smile on my face when I go for a ride. Cost me a fair bit over the year. Chain and sprocket along with the clutch being the main thing. Also brake pads and tyres (but would need these on whatever bike I had to be fair).
Every now and then I find myself looking at something different, but I know I'll regret it as soon as I sell it. Might just mean I need two bikes...
