does it happen to you

[r1oldie]

After the idiot ran into my R1 in ASDA i have been using train to go to work...yuk. boring and sooooo slow.
Well my son, an avid nsr125 fan loaned me his bike, what fun, brings back old memories.
Coz he's a learner, I left the rear L plate on, Do us bikers who have passed our test really treat Learners with such contempt.. Its bad enough the 4 wheelers hooting cutting up and pulling out without looking without bikers doing same to the young learners. what an eye opener, 30 years odd ive been biking and never realized how hard it is for someone with the red L.
As for the pillock on the Bandit who nearly had me into a bus, got ya number lad, bitch slap the fuck outa ya next time we meet.
Moral of the story is....Give the learners a break, we were all there at one time and passing ya test does not need to turn you from a learner into a total prat.

I thought that it was your R6 that got trashed in the supermarket?

Anyhoo, I always give learners some slack (both cars and bikes) 'cos I was in their situation before...I really hate it when I see people tail-gating learners even though they're travelling at the given speed limit.

R1 was trashed....Well over £2k of repairs, R6 is what I got the mrs to replace her bandit but she wont now let me use it without big rows so i dont bother to ask. Although she is already talking about getting rid of it cos she likes the look of the sv1000 . think she just likes the thought of all those cc's between her legs.....

[andrew]

Im sure you said it was your missus bike that got hit

[nsr125man]

Leave her alone ya great bully.....the cc's are obvious compensation for your lack of............
anyway. I spoke with George today, said he loaned you his bike, said you looked a bit nervous and a right wally....and to remind you it does have 6 gears that should be used not just 1 and 2.

Ya know why he loaned it to ya dont ya, your wife has loaned him the R6 to go to work today......said its a better bike than your R1, oh shit..suppose you didnt know about that..

By the way... you told me the R1 does 78 in 1st, two up we got 80 haha

ive actually got a lot friendly nods and advice from bikers even with my L plates on. aside from cars the only people being twats are damn scooters. pull up beside u at the lights, rev their engines and then try cutting u up
