Melancholy Day
« on: 14 May 2012, 06:40:08 pm »
Hooray! I bought a new bike! :eek 8) :2guns


But I had to trade my FZ6 S2 for it  :'(


I loved Gladys! She was a great bike and great fun to ride. The Two Bros Exhaust was awesome when rattling through the Clyde Tunnel and we had some great miles together. Sad, sad day. I really wished I could have kept her and got the new bike as well but is was just not do-able.


So, whats the new bike I hear you ask? Well I'm sorry to say that I've moved to the dark side and bought a CB1000r :eek  Sacrilege I know, but it looks groovy and it rides smooth as silk imho. I'm picking it up on Saturday (but there is a slim chance I might get it before) and then its  :2guns :smokin :guitar :woot


Hope you lot don't mind if I still loiter around here with a Honda though  :pokefun

Thanks Ray. Yeh, the CB1k put a smile on my face and it will be enjoyed a lot.

The FZ6 was a great first bike and I hadn't felt that I had particularly out grown it or anything. My missus is riding pilion with me more often than not which was the initial draw to a bigger bike.

If they were still in production I would recommend the FZ6 to anyone.

Cheers

Iain.
