Gave a local young lad a go on my bike at Aragon last year, he seemed happy.

I'm ste at spotting photoshops and other photo wizardry...I think im sensing some fake news on that one thou ?!




Its real.
...cool as...how did that come about then?
I've got a 'friend' who doesn't know who that is on your bike John. They have quite a small phone so that might be it.

I of course laughed at him / them but if you could just confirm who it is you entrusted your R1-M it would clear up our / my arguement.

Cheers

I was quite surprised how benign it is at low speeds. It’s a sharper tool than the CBF600 I learned on, but it was a comfortable ride & has a lovely turn of speed. Not that I’ve dipped very far into the available performance yet!

I think I’ll enjoy this motorcycling lark!!

Yes he will.

Dunno why but when I see his forum name I picture Reg Hollis from The Bill.

Congratulations. So how does it feel to join "the dark, sinister two-wheeled world"? To quote the author of a well known Advanced and Performance driving book winkIt would be a very interesting read for us, to get your comparison of the learning process on a bike vs your advanced instructing in a car.
I started on motorbikes and then moved on to cars, both a very long time ago, I have always believed that riding a motorbike made me a better driver.
Anyway welcome to the wonderful world of two wheels and may you have many years of happy ridingthumbup
PS We won't mention the author's other comments as he is now the "fastestthingontheroad" smile

He's probably got a Paul Newman thing going.
I suspect you've probably got a masturbation thing going.
