[Thomas]

Hi all

Im from while at the forum but dont have time to show You my baby

I'll start from the beginning

about 3 years ago i bought my first in this country motor bike Kawasaki 636 B1H 2003


was good like a on first bike but after 2-3 years start be a little bit not enought so i decide to sell it and put on gumtree , i was surprised when after 2 days guy from gumtree just come and put money on the table :emmersed: so i solg my love'd bike.

and start a looking another new my first idea was Yamaha R6 2010 but i cant find it in good (immacate ) condition ;( i was looking about 2 months ;( and nothing ...

one day i went to one shop and owner offered me a R1 2008 to take a ride i was not shure :shame:



but im try it ...... and that was bullz eye i understood that i want 1000 cc no more 600 cc but because this seller do not want put down a price im not bought it

so start looking one liter
suzuki


kawasaki ect....
even a ducati



and finally i go to BMW Motorrad

get o test drive a s1000rr !!!!



and ...... at the end i was in love :race2_smilie:

that was it what i want !!

so i bought it and start be a happy owner of S1000RR 16'

[Thomas]

couple day latter i need come back to dealer because they forgot put in my bike a hp levers and front sets ;-/ when i come back to dealer they tell me " we order parts for U but receive wrong ones come back next week " wrrr i dont like this in all ways ... but finally they was fit in to may bike but only levers ;-( wrr because front sets not arrive on time so we decide put them at first service 600 mil .



in the meantime i put some crash pads R&G and radiator guards







so far so good but some times i start to think why i need to buy enything more to that expensive bike ??? in that price ( not cheap compare to other bikes ) should be all in from manufacture ...
