    Ello all, i might loiter on here again as its been aaaaages and also have a new toy

    Ello all those that know me and howdy to all those that dont.
    Its been a while now since ive been a member of the S2 driving population and sadly i dont think i'll get back in to it due to funds etc so have been making do with my Mk5 Golf - 170bhp has been seeing me by ok even if its not much fun lol

    Saturday just gone i put a deposit down on a new toy tho, something that will hopefully be a bit of fun and it would be good to get out to some of the meets again to catch up with people and see the cars i love so much.

    The new toy is shown below, on paper i think it should be a fair bit faster than an S2, but with me on it it wont be - well not yet anyways, gonna take me a while to get used to it and not get over confident etc but yeh, should be fun when the sun is out

    This pic isnt my actual one as i dont take delivery until next week, but more pics will follow soon im sure - its the same as this pic tho

        Well look what the cat dragged back in....just couldn't stay away then Hello matey...long time no noisy gearbox

        I like the new deathdealer, but I will not be asking for a go on it as I have been banned from bikes by the collective and rather effective combination of my wife and mother....oh the shame

        My poor old bike wimpers at me when I go in the garage, so I have covered it in old carpet so I cannot see it

        Cheers n

          Hello Ant!

          Well that bike might be quick on paper, but it's tarmac that really matters....

            Ive been lurking around from time to time but not posting, Jamo said i missed a meet over the weekend which is a shame, would have been good to see all the cars again and im gonna be away for Billing as well

            Whatever happened to my old car? Did it get properly broken in the end?

                  Hi Ant, good to see you and a nice new toy there, is that a ZX10r? If so its a true nutter bike, I've been looking at them recently on ebay and wondering whether to trade the R1 for one. I had a ZX11 for a few years before I got into R1s. Thing about Kawasakis is they're actually designed to make absolutely the best noise when you're riding them, fantastic.

                        Yep got an orange one from a dealer in Slough - still brand new and unregistered, so just waiting for that to all get sorted out and should hopefully be able to collect it next Wednesday - fingers crossed the sun is out!

                          Nice bike dude, i nearly got a zx10r, bit to badass for uk roads tho. (mate of mine had a 450 bhp nitrous built but that was just nuts!) mk1 seem's to be a bit of a cult bike now. 6R still quick enought tho and even more flickable and you'll still be able to pop the front up without using the clutch.

                          Love the orange to, i think it was only ever avalible on import for its big brother.

                          Get yourself on zxforums.com, hope you enjoy it
