Default Hello from the UK

Picked my 10 plate S1 up on monday, managed a good few miles today on a trip to Silverstone.
Traded in my RSV4 to get it, beautiful but unreliable
There's alot of carbon on it but it looks better in the flesh
Based in Bristol.

That's a bit embarrassing ..introducing myself and spelling my own name wrong, I was tired when I did that as an excuse.

Welcome.

I was deciding between the two when I bought my S1000RR. Went with the more street friendly bike.

Hi mark,

Im in Warmley just round the ring road, we'll have to try and meet up for a chat and maybe a rideout?

Mick.

Mick

That sounds like a plan.

I've only had my S1K a couple of weeks, so still dialing into it coming off a puffing twin.

Not thrown anything at it yet in terms of mods.

Drop me a PM if you fancy a natter and a ride out.

Mark
