Hello from Bournemouth
Posted: Oct 7th, '12, 16:49
Good evening all. Stumbled across this forum while searching for some heated grip info, and thought i'd sign up.
My name's Troy, i'm 24 and I live in Bournemouth, which is perhaps the furthest east of the south west, but there are never any forums/choices on web forms for just south!
I've been riding for almost two years. Started on a 125 as cheap commuter transport, but caught the bug as expected. So I took my test before Christmas and 'borrowed' my good friends GS500 for a few months before falling in love with my current steed. Riding past a dealer in Bournemouth and i saw this, and had to have it. I still had my 125 as i was planning to keep it until spring to get a good resale, but ended up trading both it and the GS for the ZX6.
I'm still unsure as to whether to keep it for winter. It feels a little too much considering it's my only transport, and have been toying with the idea of trading in or selling up for something a little more sensible. But at the moment it looks like i'll be on this thing for the foreseeable future.
Anyway, I'll shut up and go have a look round. For now, here are a few snaps of what i'm usually moaning to the other half about being out on.
Oh and bonus points for telling me where i am in the second shot
