Hope to come to some meets in the future.

I like all colours just so happened to be a lovely red one sitting in my closest dealership on saturday with only 8500 miles on the clock so I took it!
My brother has one which is black red and white which is a nice set of colours together.
well I have to be biased as I just bought it so Red rocks!!...lol

Oh just got a quote from the CIA web site for 446 pounds for the years insurance, I am 23 and no noclaims this good? Need to get it insured in time to pick it up on saturday.

I'd say that's damn good. That's without knowing if it's TPFT or not. My insurance is £230 for a knackered 10 year old MZ 125. So £446 for a beauty like that sounds fine. Considering people in my age and experience bracket are getting quotes of over a grand for similar bikes. I guess it's the few extra years you've got over me..

Get Bike Trader, call all the companies in the back to get insurance quotes and then call back around the cheapest ones playing them off against each other asking them if they can beat the other quotes you have. Repeat until none will go any lower. It will take a fair bit of time, but you can save a fair bit on your insurance. Or you could use Danny's insurance finding service.

Welcome from another 'Cat owner and ex-geordie (well almost)! Mine is of the black, silver and orange variety, but I agree with all the other posts so far, there isn't much it doesn't do well.

Welcome, WELCOME, WELCOME!


Enjoy your stay. Your insurance quote seems pretty good, though as Ste said, you should be able to get it a fair bit lower if you ring around and use that as a comparative quote to the companies.

I should imagine you are very much looking forward to Saturday? Wink

Hey there! Welcome to the forums. The first rule of BCF is you don't talk about BFC. The second rule of B....

Only kidding Smile . Very nice bike by the way, I'm sure you'll be able to find plenty of people in the northeast to go ride with and chat in gordie accents hehe.
