Introductions / Hi All

Hi everyone. Just a few words to introduce myself. I bought an 07 plate GTR last October from someone who was on this forum. I've only really got round to seriously using it this year although I have been dipping in here now and then for hints n tips. I had a GTR 1000 A1 on an E plate from about 05 to 15 and couldn't really fault it so I kinda feel I'm back there again. That bike only left here due to too many bikes.
I live in Glasgow and I passed my bike test in 77, I'm that old! and I've had loads of bikes since, way too many to list.
When I got this 1400 it was due the dreaded "valve service" so I got that done. I took the lowering dogbones off as I don't need them, put the standard screen on instead of the see through barn door that was there before' fitted some Michelin Road 5s and just last week I got the Mountain Runner Premium ecu flash from Michael Cox.
I'm loving this bike now and can't see me parting with it!
This is a great forum and I hope to be posting more often now I've got a little more time.

I've just had the ECU of my 2007 GTR flashed by Michael Cox in Germany. I chose the Mountain Runner Premium option and took the bike out for a test run today.
I know it's been positively reported on here before but I feel the need to add my twopence worth. My bike now runs EXACTLY the way I always wanted it to run. No throttle snatchiness, no whacking in too hard mid corner, no slow speed manoeuvrability issues, just silky smooth throttle operation at all times. The significant improvement in torque and power are a welcome bonus.
I sent Michael my ECU via DHL on Monday and had it back by the Friday lunchtime.
It's absolutely transformed my bike.
