Afternoon everyone, just joined the forum - another STW lurker, remembered that I hadn't actually joined!

Owned bikes since before I could legally ride, currently on an '08 R1200GSA (don't hold it against me) but have had a whole string of different ones. Ex Aircraft Engineer so do all my own spannering, used to also do green-laning until a friend got injured and decided it wasn't worth the very high potential for doing yet more harm to my body :cry:

Thought I'd list all the bikes I've had in (possibly) chronological order - Suzuki TS100, Greeves 250 Challenger, Yamaha RD250, Suzuki RE5, Yamaha RD125, Bultaco 370 Frontera, Honda 400/4, Yamaha XS1100, MZ TS250, Triton 650, Honda CR500, Kawasaki GPX 750, Kawasaki 750 US Custom, Kawasaki GPZ1100, MZ ETZ251, Laverda Jota 1000, Suzuki GSX1300R, Laverda Mirage 1200, Honda VFR800 VTEC, Kawasaki ZX12R, BMW K1200S, Triumph Sprint ST1050, Suzuki GSX1300R No.2, Triumph Daytona 955i, KTM 400EXC, Beta 300 X-Trainer, BMW R1200GSA. Quite a variety!

Done all sorts of riding and hopefully not done with it yet :D Roll on the end of this Covid!

It's like a party !

Don't worry about the current choice of bike, they're popular here... lots of old boring folk here
