That’s a very nice colour. Totally different.
Definitely seeing a theme emerging with you @Pauly. Just refresh my memory, how long did you have your T6 before you crashed it????
Woohoo. 5001. You’ve done it.
And just cos you’ve reached such a milestone i’ll let you off your last comment.
Sounds like you should let me have that R1 at a knock down price for a track bike (the gsxr 600 is too slow!) and save you from yourself.
well i started on a motorcross bike then had a couple of blades, then i had a supamoto for a wile until it was stolen! Then my next idea was maybe if i have a naked blade that would slow me down...guess what 
No more bikes for me now but i do miss it

Here’s a couple of mine. The Beemer is just freshly washed today after playing up in Hinckley after having had its ECU fettled
The other is my hand built Zagato Moto Guzzi
My old Rockhopper is safely tucked away so it wont do any harm(I have done a fair amount of spinning lately though!)
Anyone going to the Kickback custom motorcycle show 7/8th April in Coventry?
If so look out for me and the Guzzi, It’ll be on show and is in the National Championship final being hosted there.
Pop over and introduce yourself, I might even make you a brew

Me & my two lads Dave (Stacky) & Roo used to be members of the Low Capacity Road Racing Club, running GP70's
on short circuits which was brilliant fun, we all had Jawas then upgraded to Contis which were superb and got us a few plastic trophies.
I kept a dyno printout somewhere showing 26bhp from a 70cc 2-stroke! Roo was once Brit GP70 champ, think it was 2007.
The lads are a real treat to watch, they've been riding and competing together for so many years they have a shared 6th sense and can freight-train as one, lap after lap after lap, inches apart... somehow elegant yet manic...
When the lads were young I was working 12/7/365 to make ends meet and I missed some of their early teens, and I'm so grateful that I've been able to make up for lost time and since then we've been inseparable, all bike mad
We've been TRF members too (Trail Riders Fellowship), we used to go out for a full day riding trails, maybe 100 miles, but trail riding is difficult these days:
Since then its been all track days (this is taken by my eldest lad Dave with a GoPro following me on the Storm @ Dony)
The poor, long-suffering Storm, suitably bedecked... "my name is Phil, and I'm a trackaholic..."
Current roadie is a 'back to me yoof' Enfield Continental GT, just sold my Gixxer6 track bike to fund alloys for the campervan!
The Firestorm in the avatar and the video above, I've since passed on to Dave, he commutes every day on it. Between us we've done 40,000 on it.
Roo has a Trumpet Stripple, DIL has an SV650 & my dear late wife had a Piaggio scooter. She was a great pillion, you wouldnt know she was there.
We've always been a biking family. The lads are now racing Pitbikes in the televised Minibike series. I fancied it but no, I feel too old now and its too rough & tumble out there...
Cheers
