Post by: sinto on 22 March 2015, 06:53:29 pm
Hiya, just wondering if there's any fellow foccers in the Glasgow area, maybe meet up for a blether and swap ideas and help each other out?
Cheers, Colin

Dumbarton here, I've moved this into general though as I'm a thou' rider and so are some of the others that are about ;)

They probably wouldnt have seen this in the 600 section.

Cheers mickvp,  I posted when I didn't really understand the set up of the forum :-P

I'm sure we could organise a wee run, or a general meet somewhere even, put faces to names etc?

Could be worse, I could be on one of those slow green ducks... Err I mean kwakasakis :lol

Your actually not far off the mark though TBH, straight line my thou is much quicker than my 600 was, but i certainly find it less chuckable. ..

I used to have a green duck too, er-6 and it was actually as chuckable as my bmw R1200GS, maybe it's just down to how you ride it?

What about May 3rd? (Weather permitting)
Meet at Stirling services, 10am?
It's quite central for everyone, easy to get to, good roads across to Callander and beyond :-)

Well hopefully mickvp it'll be done again, only picked that date as it gives people enough time to organise time off for good behaviour with their partners etc lol
I'm relatively free to go out when I please but understand it's not the same for everyone.

Newbie here. Falkirk based and usually looking after the wee one of a weekend which makes things tricky for a run but nice to know there are a few people nearby.

Welcome to focland fiveside, I work out that way a lot, I am free most times so not a prob for me to get out and when I've got my boy, he loves coming out on it too, total result lol
Anyway get a pic up of your bike and tell us a bit about it.

put a pic up in the intro section but red fazer 1000 with can and I don't know what other bits! I think it has a fender extender, not sure though! My main thing is I will be looking at tyres soon I think. The rear that is on it is a tad square!
