Your first time......

[R6jonny]

Hey

picked up the R6 yesterday....it was raining and cold and the roads were horrible and slippery but i still cant think of a time when ive had more fun......after to years of riding the same bike the R6 is a breath of fresh air and an awesome machine and reminded me why i love biking so much and despite the worst of the british weather it is still fun !!

Just wondered what everyone else thought of their first time on a new bike ??!?!?!

When i picked my R6 up (years ago) it was freezing cold,raining and there was salt all over the road,great start eh.
But it felt exactly as i was expecting it to.like a 400 but with shed loads more go

Wet and cold February, in the depths of a winter confidence crisis and feeling very high up.

Was just glad to get it home in one piece, I think it wasn't until the next day when the sun was shining that I started to enjoy it.

[slowarse]

yeah, i remember picking my first bike up !!

what should of been a 10 minute ride home ended up being about 3 hours!
didn't even notice the rain or the fact it had gone dark till i got home!!

My first blat on an r6 revealed it was a slappy little biatch, fun though.

My first time on the town bike was in the local cemetary (a long time ago), me and a few mates tossed (a coin) and I went second, it wasn't pretty.

I picked my bike up on a crappy day as well last october. It was just really misty.
I took it out for a spin and found myself riding down to peterborough (from newcastle) so put like 500 miles on it in the first two days.....lol

Isnt there a weird pattern here

[tony532]

picked up my gsxr400sp from the garage

after someone tried to steal it before i had chance to get my mate to take it in to get it restricted

ended up being recovered and then picked up by the garage


nice sunny day in august day off work took it for a 60 mile ride out

over the cat 3 times into buxton e.t.c


loved the sound of the 4t inline four compared to the 2 stroke rs125


spent most of the time just thinking damn this sounds good


and having low down power even though it's restricted to 33 bhp
