PostPosted: 09:58 - 09 Apr 2019    Post subject: Hello from Edinburgh! Reply with quote
Just went to register for the site and found I was already registered, seem to have lurked previously and only posted one reply so thought I'd say hello (feel free to move this if it's the wrong section)

I've got a 2011 Suzuki DL650 (V-strom) after previously riding a Bandit 650, Diversion 600 and a GPZ500.

The other forums I'm on seem a bit quiet but by the looks of it this is a bit more lively, looking forward to joining in. Very Happy

Mr. Green This thread cracks me up already:

Yup, Ian Brown Fan, can't speak for Sturgeon though!

Feckin love the Krankies - who doesn't?!?

No, Salmond is still free to grab at the wobbly bits

And for those wondering...the "You'll have had yer tea then" is an east coast Scotland thing - if you visit someone and they say that to you, they are pretty much saying, "I expect you have already eaten, so you're not getting any food here" i.e. dinnae be thinking you're staying a long time. We're nice people, honest. Laughing
