Bit late but HI

Hi I'm Adam. I've been a member for a few months now and have been getting some great help from you guys but I didn't realise this section was here before (doh) so thought it'd be polite to introduce myself properly.

Well I'm at 28 year old tattooist living in cleethorpes, Lincolnshire but originally from good old Southend on Sea in Essex.
I've been riding bikes most of my life but only legally for the past 2 years :-) Had my 96 thundercat for the past 7 months and absolutely love it. She was a last minute impulse buy while on my way to view a cbr600 and got to say I'm more than glad it went that way.

Anyways I look forward to chatting to you all and helping others in anyway I can. In the meantime I'll apologise in advance for all the questions and new topics ill undoubtedly start (Y)

Cheers

I just tried posting a pic but I'm using a mobile and can't figure it out. She the original red and white anyway :-)

Hi Adam,

My brother lives in Southend-on-Sea and I spent a few months there when I returned to the UK nearly 9 years ago.

No apologies needed for starting topics, that's what keeps the place going.
If you haven't seen the thread on how to post pics, including mobiles,

Impulse buy maybe, but I'm sure you will continue to be pleased you chose the

Welcome.

Welcome aboard Adam.

Good impulse buy
Not be long till you're doing cat tats I'm sure.
There are a few folks on here that have them already.

Cheers
Rosco

Cheers guys and funny you should say that rosco, I've actually got the kool art caricature of the thundercat sat on my desk at work contemplating filling a gap on my leg with it :-D just need to re colour it in my bikes colours

Hello Adam


Welcome to the site. Get a pic up of the Cat if you can.


Cheers, Ian

Glad to see you have been enjoying the gaff, and sticking around.

Hey Pal,

i also viewed her alongside a cbr and there was no contest

I have the all black and gun metal Cat shes a stunner

iv had a warm welcome here, look forward to seeing some cats this summer

Hey & welcome to the site. My cat was an impulse buy nearly 14 years ago while I was rebuilding my crashed gsxr. Still got the cat but sold the Suzuki.

Paul

Welcome in mate iam a Honda fan but sold my cbr after 6 months got a cat best bike ever does the lot got a R1 now but the cat for me gave me more smiles per miles might have to get another when space allows.
Cheers

Finally got to a pc, heres how she sat when i first got her home

hope that works haha

then this was after i changed the exhaust for something shorter and louder



i managed to get her for £900 with 20,000 miles on the clock, full mot, new tyres, pads, recent service and some history. as you can see she was cosmetically perfect and the engine seems solid enough, maybe just a cam chain noise but nothing major.

Nice.

Thanks oldcat

Looks very tidy & a bargain for that money. Might be worth trying a new cam chain tensioner.

Hi Adam,

Welcome to the site -again!

Good to see you back on here. Used to live in Cleethorpes. Now not far away nr Caistor

Can't remember if you were on here last August when the local run was held, but hope you can join us on the Taste of Lincolnshire 2015. Will be good to have some more locals joining in.

Cheers, Chris

Yeah greencat I was probably on here in august but staying quiet haha I didn't come to the ride out but I was at Willingham woods most weeks.
Didn't see any other thundercats there though? Do you go to the meet there atall?
I'll hopefully be coming along to more ride outs this year, start getting more involved in the bike community
