Well that's put me in my place then!take it I'm not welcome any more.

What put you in your place ? What part of this say you are not welcome ? Am I missing something ??? [I hope it's not a brain :lol: ] :-o No, seriously, what ? :-\

I assume either we are misunderstanding Graeme or he is misunderstanding Badger as there is no way Badger would say anything against another forum member without very good reason.

Graeme let us know what the problem is as I don't think there is any regular on this forum who would intentionally cause offence.

I have no problem understanding that mood. Feel like I've been in it or close for months now. If it doesn't clear soon I feel like I'm going to start smashing things. That or buy a new bike.

No offence taken, computers don't get nuances even using smiley winky things! I was mostly referring to the fact we cover all abilities and riding moods, if you just want a slow easy bimble, say so, if you want to exorcise some demons and want to ride in a swift fashion then make it plain, or check what someone else has posted for their ride out. We generally try to give others an idea of what we're planning so no one gets fed up, bored or left behind.

As for the 'doing your own thing' comment, that was tongue in cheek, you'll get a lot of that on here :D

When you are moved and settled, give me a shout ( PM or Text) and I'll make some time free, we can meet somewhere that sells good coffee and you'll get my sense of humour ( Crap, if you ask my wife or kids :)) ).

Will definitely do that. Do any of you guys do track days? If so,where?,and how often. I've only ever done brands,and they only ever let us use the Indy circuit. Had a gsxr 1000 track bike and trailer but sold all the gear last year,lie,2014. ( where the f--k did 2015 go). But I would love to get this beast of mine on a track as I reckon it would be the perfect weapon. Think the gsxr 750 would have made a better track bike than the 1000,we'll definitely on that Indy circuit any way. Think I would fit in with any sort of a ride out any ways. If I felt the need for speed,I'd just creep to the front and blast and then wait up. Suppose I gotta watch out for them there tractors. Not used to them on a bike. Under two weeks now and we will be moved in. Look forward to meeting up with you all.. My disability by the way is a full prosthetic left leg. Adapt all bikes myself to change gear with left hand....some might say," easy to get my left knee down"
