 Posted: 10:32 - 21 Jul 2003 Post subject: Having fun :D |
 |
|
Gotta say, i'm loving every minute on my bike so far!!
I've only been riding just over a week - i went and took my CBT and picked up my NSR at the same time last friday, and have already clocked up nearly 800 miles!
The day after my CBT i was going on holiday to dorset, and decided to ride down instead of driving. 160 mile trip on the A roads, but was fun all the way! Rode down with my sisters boyfriend so that he could 'look after me ' on his bandit 1200 (yeah he did wait for me lol!).
Some of the roads around there are excellent for a blast on the bike, quiet, twisty and in much better condition than the roads where i live! The weather helped too.
I'm loving every minute! the car has not moved since the day before my CBT, and i dont think it will be anytime soon. Ok so i only ride an NSR, its not exactly a rocketship - but it suits me for a first bike.
Had some good laughs too! Had it a few times where i've pulled alongside some kid in his tacky nova/escort/fiesta/saxo with music farting out, and he looks with a smug face cause he can hear the tinny 2-stroke nsr sound, then he gives it some when he pulls away and even the restricted nsr pulls away from him easily, and he looks stupid infront of his mates/schoolgirls.
Can anyone tell i'm bored at work!?
What do you all enjoy most about your bike? Any good/funny stories would be good

Glad to hear you're enjoying yourself mate
I loved every minute on my NSR Even though it's 'only' a 125 some of the best rides were on that bike...
One day I decided to go for a ride to Herne Bay with my mate. We both had new NSR's and the whole journey we were laughing our tits off under our bash hats Sitting at an indicated 100 taking turns to slipstream each other for 20 odd miles of the M2 motorway. Great stuff. ____________________ NSR125RR - ZXR750H1 - ZX9R E1 - GSF600S - GSF600SK3 - VFR400-NC30 - SV1000N - ST1100-R - CBR900RR-R - GSF1200SK5 - GSF600SK1 - VFR1200FA - GSXR1000K2 - ZZR1400 D8F

Most fun I've had on my bike is at Elvington, I was pulling off some mad wheelies, total adrenalin rush.  ____________________ -Zimma |

To be fair 99% of salvage comes without a V5 document, u have to get a form from the post office and the DVLA will send you another V5 (it will still contain all the previous owner details etc - its just a reprint). As i say, you'd be VERY lucky to buy anything from a salvage dealer with any kind of V5 / service book, and sometimes lucky to get a key. When my car was written off i was never asked for the V5, service book, handbook or keys - i still have them all!
I would be worried if i was buying a car/bike from a dealer and it had no V5, because that is a bit dodgy, whereas from a salvage dealer, you KNOW the bike was written off, whats the worst that can happen
But i do agree, buying a bike from one of the well known guys on here is probably a better option! At least you will be able to ride it as soon as you get it, and not spend time effort and money trying to get it roadworthy! |
