Having passed DAS a month ago i've been looking for a cheap first big bike...well here it is lol!

https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y27/clivejameson/CBR600.jpg

44k on the clock but looked after well, not the original exhaust but stainless steel anyway, recently serviced and long MOT and Tax, no immediate faults that need attention...all for a bargain £550.

Picking it up on wednesday...the weather forecast looks cracking so i know what i'll be doing thursday, friday and all weekend Laughing [/img]

Well one or two of the stickers have gone, a few more to go and of course they are peeling off in small pieces about the size of a matchead Confused .....it was such a nice day i decided i'd had enough peeling and not enough riding lol.

Actually, this was my first ride on it and having only spent four days on a riding school commuter before i was naturally a bit cautious but i was amazed at how easy it felt to ride...and yes the smile factor was unbelieveable!!!!

I'm sure all you experienced riders must remember that first time on a big bike especially the first time you really opened the throttle up and let rip?...well it was that time for me today Very Happy

Yep...I think I remember... Mr. Green Thumbs Up (actually get the grin factor everytime I accelerate on the bike)...it seems to hit the spot again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again.... Thumbs Up
