Brilliant piccy. The right foot is a long way from the back brake, guessing recovery was difficult at this point. :-)

Sorry for the late reply

I don't know anything re the pic,someone just sent me it and I thought great pic.

It encapsulates loads of stuff from my biking youth
Leather jacket n jeans,Doc Martins,LC's,Maltese cross helmet (premier iirc)

If as Podman says he got that back he did well

This arrived today. Looks almost too good to put on the bike.

Is that for a Fireblade?

Nah a proper bike - GSXR.

What make is the carbon mudguard.

[FartKong]

Its from Carbon King. They didnt have any in stock when I enquired about it a few weeks ago but they emailed me the other day to say they've had more in. Placed the order and it was here the next day and the quality is great. Its almost too good to put on the bike.

[Biker's Nemesis]

Nice One, its always good to hear about stuff that's good quality. I have used Pro Fibre (Slovakia) for the Fireblade stuff and that too was top notch.

[FartKong]

I was tempted to order from them as their prices seemed reasonable but after getting ripped off every two minutes in Poland I didn't want to risk ordering something online from that part of the world.

Are you going to keep this one longer than a fortnight?

Yes!!

It's the total opposite of what kind of bikes i've been looking for/at.
But it's so comfy in comparison to the Speed, and ticks all the boxes for what i need for a road bike. Already been off road a lot too, so i'm enjoying the "go anywhere" part of it.

I may look at getting a track bike next year, but in all fairness, i've never been a quick rider, or a skilled one. So perhaps safer away from all that!

Have to agree with Pro Fibre. I was very pleased with it

Glad you've found something which suits your needs, we'll maybe get out for a ride next year!

At £89.99 that's good value, its shame they don't do the hugger on the K2.
