Just a hello to all
« on: 02 August 2015, 09:13:23 pm »
Thought I'd sign up for a club now I got back in the saddle after 10 years out, my last was an xjr13 but I never forgot that experience of my old 98 Fazer 600 I used for work when I had her, (ex motorcycle instructor) after being out and off the scene for so long I wanted something I knew I could trust to be reliable and forgiving at the same time and something that goes like snot off a twangy stick when I wanted to.
Yep back to a mk1 99 600 for me, I am picking the old girl up on Sat I feel like a kid with a new toy right now and for the 1st ride it's 160 miles back home from where she is now!
Should get me run back in!
Hopefully be chatting to all on the forum in the future so it's a big HI from me to all.
Cheers

Welcome to the forum  8)

Chris

It wouldn't be fun if it was easy, I just wish it wasn't this much fun.

Greetings sidewinder, and welcome to the foc-ers!

And age old tradition on the forum is to post a piccy of your bike on introduction, however we'll let this one go as you don't have it yet! :D:D

But as soon as you doooo...... 8)
Stop polishing it and ride the bloody thing!!

Slimwilly, thanks mate, yep me too.. I loved the old funfair there, my mum would give me and my elder bruv some money to go on a few rides whilst she played bingo on the corner opposite the bumper cars, I used to watch the hover crafts come in and get soppin wet with the spray, sit on the beach and just play.
We often stayed over at my aunts in Gosport.. all childhood memories mate, used to take my kids when they were little and now my kids take theirs!
It's still there just changed a bit and they put shields in front of the hovers now so not much getting wet!
Cheers bud. :thumbup [/size][size=78%]  [/size]
