Hi everyone!!

Hi! I am new here, and will get my beautiful 954 next saturday!! I feel so excited! Had a 900 Hornet before, and decided to go for something more serious and powerful
Your site is great, and I really look forward to your help and advices (as I am just a girl should need a lot!!)

I will download a pic of my Black Beauty as soon as I have a few made..
See you soon guys!! Spring is here (had much snow in Switzerland this winter) and road is getting hotter!

Welcome to the site. Pay no attention to the Canadians here, I have it on good authority that they speak absolutely no intelligible French, even in Quebec

My sister lived in the south of France for 2 years... wish I'd had the chance to visit her out there.

Some day I will ride a motorcycle in the Alps.
