Hello

My name is Bob and I live in the West Midlands. I started riding in November 2003 when I failed my forst DAS test. I went and brought an Aprilia RS125 and found this didn't suit my riding so I got a Honda Varadero 125.

In Septmeber 2004 I took my DAS again and passed ang got a black Fazer 600 (2000 model).

So that me. Speak to you all soon and who know I might meet some of you if you are in the West Midlands area.

:welcome: Bob!!!

Looking forward to reading your posts!

I would REALLY enjoy reading a review of your motorcycles; the Aprilia RS125, Honda Varadero 125 and the Fazer 600 as they are bikes not found over here in North America. Also feel free to post any bike pics you have of them in our Motorcycle Photo Gallery as I'm sure many members would love to see them too.

If you do take the time to write a review of these motorcycles, please post it in our Motorcycle Review forum. :D

Thanks so much and welcome to our friendly motorcycle community!

Mike

Hi, Bob - going to be in Birmingham on Saturday all being well, meeting with an XJR group...

:welcome: to this site and stick around, it's good to have more UK based People!
Don't give up.

Not now, not soon, not after being continually knocked down.

If you never give up, you can never truly fail.

The Total Motorcycle community is chock full of UK goodness! (or is that Chock full of nutz?*) UK is currently fighting neck and neck for the #2 most visited country position on TMW.

Wish I could attend that XJR group meetup, would love to try out one of those XJR's you have over there as I ride a 82' XJ650R over here. Are there many XJ650R seca's there?

Mike.
