Been reading the posts for a few weeks now, and noticed a fair few owners seem to be Bikers as well.. Is this a common theme then? Something to do with that 'stand out from the crowd' thing maybe!!

Got a K6 Gixxer Thou myself, but been riding longer than I've been driving. (and that's a long time...)

What else we got on the list then?? (I can probably guess gsxr750steve's answer)...

Aha - trials rider then! smile

Thinking of returning to the sport (after a loooong lay-off) seeing as there's no trail riding/enduro fun to be had round my way anymore frown

I've got a DRZ400S and a Tiger 1050 at the mo (both road legal smile )

Ha Ha!! Fooled you...... I've got a Fazer 1000. :-))

Used to have a GSXR750 obviously - two of them actually, and a couple of GSXR1100's (really old), a couple of old Laverda's, a RD350YPVS and an RGV250 that I raced, and loads more.....

Linzi (my wife) is a biker too - she has a Monster.

We'll be at Donington this weekend - on the bikes if it is sunny but looking at the forecast we'll be in the Monaro.... Boo!!

Used to have a Yam FZR750 OW01 - smashed to bits (along with its owner) in a hoofing RTA.

A few years off/recovery - then got a CBR 600FS Sport - sold 8 months ago.... still in one piece luckily


I sometimes want another one, but after seeing a 6 bike pile up on Sunday (1 overtaking over double white lines rode into a pack of 5 bikes coming the other way) 2 fatalities and 4 VSI........ I sometimes wonder
