Title: Newbie Reporting
Post by: steel23 on May 24, 2012, 04:54:41 AM
Hi peeps. Have been a biker, riding to places since in my 20s. Have just switch from the ZZR1400 to the GTR1400. Used to ride a Hayabusa as well as a FJR. I would say the Kawasakis never fail to satisfy me everytime. Hope to learn more from the experts here.
Cheers!

Welcome to this forum Steel, I'm sure that you will love the GTR and get good info from the resident experts on here   :whistling:

BTW the definition of and 'expert' is ..."ex" is the 'former', and a "spurt" is a drip under pressure   :mfr_lol:

Rusty, you are going to have to have some very basic I.T. lessons.

Welcome Mr Steel, I see you are in Singapore. Very nice indeed. Oh and welcome to the forum.

I'll be in Singapore for three days from 13th October this year. I'll keep my eyes open for you. Failing that pop into the Grand Hiatt,  http://singapore.grand.hyatt.com/hyatt/hotels-singapore-grand/index.jsp?src=agn_phd_gh_ppc_google_ss&mckv=siv27txtJ|pcrid|9466888627|&hyattprop=yes (http://singapore.grand.hyatt.com/hyatt/hotels-singapore-grand/index.jsp?src=agn_phd_gh_ppc_google_ss&mckv=siv27txtJ%7Cpcrid%7C9466888627%7C&hyattprop=yes)  and you can buy me a drink.  :taz:

Thank you all. Nice to be here and I was rather surprised that I am the only Singaporean here.
Definitely would like to visit UK one day.
Lonewolf, I should be around that period. Buying you a drink is a simple gesture. We'll keep in touch.
Nearer to that date, do let me know again.

That's what happens to me every time I go into a foreign watering hole, preceeded by a Glaswegian nod, a Dr Hook and then the Singapore sling  :clap:

When Mr Wolf gets there it will be more like " Singapore sling ya hook ! "  :mfr_lol: :mfr_lol: :mfr_lol:

I might partake in the occasional alcoholic beverage, it'd be rude not to!
