Great suggestion! Thanks Mr S. What app do you use for his downloads?

Thanks Alex. Back for the weekend unfortunately. Some good tips above though. Thanks all.

Evening all. I’m staying in North Yorkshire and looking for some good roads between here and the border. This was in Wales on my way up 😁 Coming down the east coast if anyone has some tips there too.

Morning all. Time for new shoes on the Gixxer. Anyone recommend a good UK website? Doing a bit of touring soon (although might venture back on track) so thinking of Michelin Road 5 or 6. Recommendations welcome.

Thanks guys. A previous owner changed the sprockets to "hooligan". Took a while to get back into non-TC mode as well. She keeps trying to chuck me off. Track day will be interesting. Hey Andy, check my chain! Won't stay like that for long although the guy that did the work gave me some good tips

…but making the most of the wait!

Good to know. Just picked up a 16 year old Gixxer with 24K on the clock. Sent from my Pixel 7 Pro using Tapatalk

She's here! Thanks for your positive thoughts guys. Will get her taxed, insured etc then out for a spin. Her tank and swingarm are covered in OEM stickers ATM. Any ideas on how to get them off without knackering the paint? Apparently I need to wear protective equipment, not drink alcohol and...

Nice one Stu. Planets not aligning so trying another delivery company. I'll drop by when I do the NC500 next. If it's raining I'll buy you a curry in return for the last visit with the boys. I'll post pics when it arrives. Apparently there's an OEM sprocket in the box of goodies (forgot about...

Thanks Guys. Just bought me an '07 Gixxer to tide me over until I can afford a Gen4/5 (last bike was a Gen3, no going backwards). Picking it up from Falkirk next week. Got it checked over by Facts Garage who got good reviews. The seller is a decent guy (I knew I could trust him when he...

Proper mad fun that was. I did a course run by the local Police where they taught you about road positioning and safety stuff. They bollocked anyone going too fast in a sub-60 limit, however they were totally cool about "making progress" in national speed limit areas when safe to do so. This one...

Howdy folks. I sold my Gen3 a few years ago (needed the ??) and haven't been on the forum much as I found coming on here a bit sad TBH... I wonder if the current owner of GY17KZX is on here?... I digress Those of you who unfortunate enough to have met me know that at 6'7" I need a bigger bike...

I'm good thanks Alex (just catching up on the forum). What did you get in the end? I'm going to get a run-around in the next couple of weeks. In fact I'll post a new thread asking for advice on this...

I recall you left bits of it all over Scotland, Alex [emoji6] Seriously though, what?s next? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I?ve been Pinching the pennies. Nearly there with the new biz now, and so looking to get a Gen 4 soon. Glad to hear you?re still on the HP4.

Just fold the seats and chuck it in the back!

Hey Stu. Thanks for the shout out. I'm still not back on an RR, but hoping I can scrabble the bucks together for a Gen4 later this year. Would just like to state for the record that I'm not now a Harley convert: A mate in Brighton is organising the London to Brighton EV rally and I'm helping...

Just hit home...

Thanks Rob. Probably a GSA1250 for me next, followed by a Gen4 although that might entail selling the car. I keep telling the missus that the GSA is much more practical than the Skoda. She's not convinced! Hilarious. All us size freaks hang out together Stu...

Thanks Andy. Ha ha. There's a niche for baldy middle aged men, you know. The niche is under Palace Pier...
