Your bike next to an open skatepark!  :evil
By open do you mean without gates or with a big open sign?


More of an outdoors one rather than indoor.Edited original for clarification ;)

An English speaking kitchen in Paris ! Sacré bleu  ;)

 :rollin :rollin

He never told us the name of the place he works, is he afraid we might call and sample the food?  :eek


It's a UK based company with 2 sites in Paris, Belushis in Canal. Feel free to come taste my food if you find yourself in Paris.   ;)

My missus is from Paris. Have you been around the arc de triomphe many times on it yet?

I've been all round France on my t/rusty fazer, Normandy, mont st Michel, Il de re, Paris a couple of times.
I love it smooth flowing roads, everyone waves at you and cars dive out of your way.

My mate was telling me that to discourage the 'youngsters' racing on the street there is a free motorbike circuit somewhere just outside Paris. Go and stretch her legs!


I drive daily to work but mostly use the peripheric. I drove around France but in a car, can't wait to try it on  a motorcycle, nice sceneries and roads!
If there is a free motorbike circuit outside Paris, i will find it and try it for sure, i wasn't aware of such a thing! Thanks!

Yes, it's my favorite color too, was looking for this specific one for some time.
Should be fine with the age of this bike, i think they are pulling out the 1994's and earlier.
I wanna do a hugger, underbelly, maybe that r6 suspension i just read about in here,so many things, but helmet and a good leather jacket were priority, will get there eventually!


Being a chef in an English speaking kitchen doesn't help with the local lingo but thanks for the tip :)

Glued a small crack on the fairing, changed a burned turn signal light and gently patted her gas tank and smiled.  :)

Introduction / Hello from Paris
« on: 04 January 2016, 05:08:26 pm »
Hello,


Just signed up and thought i'd introduce myself. I'm a happy owner of an FZS 600 '00, got her 3 weeks ago with 60k Km on it for just 1k euros (he was asking for 1200). She has a minor crack on the front fairing but overall runs great and no issues so far. It's my first "street" bike as my other one is a Yamaha XT 2001 Supermoto (60hp).
I live in France but i can't really speak the language, my hope is to get as much info on my bike through this forum and get to know some like-minded peeps.
If anyone here from France/Paris, feel free to speak up  ;)
