Hi there. Nice to have another Englishman on the site. I won't hold it against you, that you're from Lancashire! :roll:

Re: Been lurking for a while

its merseyside, no hotpot here lol, i see your in tenerife, my mate johns out there with a vmax, if you see him knock him off for me hahaha

as for the cbr well its really old, id fully stripped it n repainted it, junked the fairing etc n then i rode it in all he snow, it was getting a bit rattly and was due to come off the road for a good re tidy up n a tune up but the last night i used it the entire fuel system failed on me, took me 40 mins to get 10 miles using the choke as a throttle and by the time i got home it was boiling hot and the cam tensioner sounds like its packed up n ive fried the clutch, not a full on blow up tho thank god

ive pulled the bars and half the controls off it for my 250 so its sat there waiting for warmer weathers and then i think itll be coming back out with clipons on again and a 60 tooth cog
