South West Bikers | Motorcycle Forum

Ello ello,

I joined aaaages ago but didn't post much due to a lack of members in my area. Now I'm down in Falmouth nr Truro at uni and have seen this site come up on several google searches so thought I'd re-join.

I'm still riding the vara125 cus I've been too busy/lazy/skint to bother passing my test. I crashed rather badly in September in the Wye valley and trashed both my bike and the car I hit, have spent an extortionate amount having my baby rebuilt.

Have loved riding the cornish roads and have done the trip home a few times (170 miles ) so I'm looking forward to meeting a few of you and goin to some meets. Have been told the Hayle meet is worth the trip...any comments?

Anyway, enough blathering,

Rob

Welcome back

hayle bike meets are okay, not many people seem to bother speaking to people from outside their own clique though. havent been down for a while so it might have changed now

Luckily I know a couple of bikers from other forums that go so hopefully won't be too bad.

Hello again

(Had to check I wasn't repeating myself)
I see you have the same bike as my son, he's got the 2005 model(yes, that's WITH L'plates) LOL!

Ugh, the 05 has those orrible silver wheels! Good on him tho, the vara is an incredible learner bike, i've done nearly 7000 miles on mine now.

The silver wheels don't bother him, so long as it gets him to work and back.
Otherwise it's mum's taxis LOL!

Apart from the silver wheels it's great!

Add a 'few' scratches, dents and rust and it looks just like mine!
