n00b saying hello

Hello everyone.

Passed DAS in July having never ridden a bike before (20 yrs in a tin box instead). Read all the magazines, reviews and forums and decided I wanted this bike ( and not a CBR600F ) and so a couple of weeks ago I picked up a deep red '99 Cat. Loving this bike and now trying to become 'one' with it ( and wishing there were more minutes in the day to ride/clean it). Also going to use it as a project over the winter when I start on bike maintenance classes in September.

Hi,

Welcome to the site and congratulations on passing your test.

Another discerning motorcycle buyer! Well done on acquiring a 'cat. Hope you get on together - it'll be a journey you'd wished you'd started sooner

Let us know how you get on and a name would be great. 'Unsafe' is fine as a site name, I think :rite: but until we have evidence it should be the primary way you're referred to a 'real' name would be useful :lol3:

Oh and post up a pick of the bike if you have one.

Chris

Hellooooooooooooo

Really hope you're not unsafe lol
welcome to the site

Thanks for the warm welcome.



At the moment this is my 'other woman' .

I'm on the lookout for new bits at the moment. Some braided brake hoses, a CF fender extender and a better headlamp bulb would be nice. As would locating a good mechanic in the S. Manchester area who knows a thing or two about these bikes for advice ....
