Member Info: Started off riding off roads bikes in South africa. Once old enough (in SA you kinda only really needed to look old enough) started riding 50cc on road. not before long got myslef a DT175 (first New bike) ... and then it happened... dicovered big road bikes. Bought myself a baby Blade (400) and then shortly came to the UK. within the year, got myself a License :) and a Suzuki SV650S. It was awesome being able to ride leagally and not have a care in the world for cops. Stopped riding for a few years during my wife´s pregnancy and birth of my son, but the bike bite came back with and I got myself a ZX6R F2. Rode her for a while but missed a corner one Sunday and broke my collar bone. After a minor titanium modification to the shoulder and a bit of time being able to use it again, I am now the Proud owner of a 2006 ZX6R. .... She is AWESOME !!!

Info: Some stupid slag turned my ZX6R into a hood ornament. Now, in retort, I have a Yamaha R6R beast. Fly by wire, slipper clutch... the bike is a crazy man''s toy.... and I love it. Seriously, 18k revs, custom exhaust... I have also got creative with the body panels. - so it is unique... have a look. I bloody love this bike :)

Info: SV650S ... awesome sprots tourer... has to be said. Very comfortable to ride, and I put twin renegades on it which made her sound like a mean beast !!!! If you have an SV, it''s a mod well worth doing. Unfortunately I don''t have pics of the renegades, but a couple of the bike when I got her.

Info: By far the best bike I have owned. Low centre of gravity, enough torque to throw an elephant at ( quite seriously keeping her in 6th and just opening her up is enough dropping gears not needed. I love it. I ride her to london everyday (+/- 70 miles round trip) and she is comfy ( in a superbike kinda way ) Easy to manage around traffic and I could not be more pleased.
