Just wanted to say hi to all, I have got a CBR954 RR3 and it's a beauty although i am thinking of changing to something a bit more sedate and comfortable for me and the missus. I will probably be posting in the for sale/swap section soon once i can figure how to post pics

There should be a pic here if i've done it right

Thanks for the welcome guys, she is a beauty and i can't make my mind up about changing so i'll stick with her for now i think i might regret losing her, although who know after a few long trips in slow moving traffic when my wrists and back are screaming i might change my mind again!

as shaft would say "your damn right" its funny with blades and any sportsbike how the resistance that speed and acceleration gives you takes all the pressure off the achy bits, the experience is amazing at 50+.

I wonder if plod will accept that as an excuse, "i Had to go fast arseficer as my wrists were hurting"

Unfortunately I doubt it very much.. mores the pity!!!!! I could imagine being at the side of the road, the policeman giving me a right

if I tried that as an excuse!!! I've not had my BabyBlade long and have to ride it 20 miles to work and back everyday

(its a real hardship, believe me

). On the way I have to slow to 30mph to go through a couple of villages, but once through the villages I can open her up again and cant believe the difference a bit of speed makes.. I'm smiling inside my lid

all the rest of the way to work..

I remember my daily commutes and even with the traffic it was still great, can't do it now as it takes me only 10mins to walk to work, the bike would actually take longer and not even get warm
