Picked up the new ride yesterday

[Sir Macca]

As per title. Took possession of my new bike yesterday.
Took some half decent pictures before it went dark.
Just needs taxing before she is allowed out to play.

It's a Suzuki GSX-R600 w. 1998 'S' reg. 22700miles on the clock, mirrored scren, bobbins, braided brake lines, alarm, immobiliser, datatag.
What you guys think?

Looks lovely! I used to have one, same colours, same year as that.

Best thing I ever did was buy a smaller front sprocket (-1 tooth) which reduced the top speed by a little but made acceleration so much quicker and responsive!

Why do people wait to ride until they get their insurance documents through?

I just set the date from when I start riding. And I start riding from that day. Not the day I get the papers through. If you get puleld over for anything (if you'r einsured) then they can't do you for anything. If you hve to hand in your licence/insurance/mot/whatever then you have 14 days in which to do so...

Cheers for all the comments guys.
Still having to clean it to get any joy out of it.
Phoned the insurance company yesterday and kicked off. Apparently all the post from their office is sent via SECOND CLASS! Unbelievable if you ask me.
Now i'm looking at monday or tuesday before i can even take it out

Mr Macca not a happy bunny.

[Hawmaw2]

I was told by an insurance call centre worker that the database is only updated every 3 weeks. So if you take out insurance at the end of the 3 week period then your details will be on the database quickly and you'll be able to tax online but if you happen to insure at the start of the 3 week period then you're fecked.

I can't do it online anyway due to me not having the v5.
I have only got the new keeper's supplement so i HAVE to wait for the insurance docs to come through.

I'm sure i will enjoy it.
Been up the cat and fiddle today and seen one there. Was really just wishing i had mine with me ah well i will have it soon enough

[The Artist]

cant you ask the insurance people to send you a proof document in pdf or something through email which you can take to post office to get tax.

[Moonie]

Why should they bother?

You've already payed for this year, and now you can f*ck off as far as they're concerned.
