Well I am sorry to say I left the GTR fold for a year when I sold my 2009 model, but I'M BACK and picking up my new Blue 0 miles, 2012 model next Thursday and can't wait. Don't know what got into me but I think I have excercised the demon.

Hope those of you who bought my old parts are still enjoying them :mfr_lol:

Stay safe, see ya knocking about the hills boys and girls

Welcome back to the Asylum Darren.  :hammer: :shocked: :banana: :popcorn: :helpsmilie: :taz: :wheelchair: :stuart: :eek:

IIRC there are 2 or 3 others on here who defected, then realised that the grass is ALWAYS greener on the Kawasaki side.  :mfr_lol:

I fully expect Mogster and Winston to soon realise the error of their ways.  :rolleyes: :whistling:

I bought a Remus exhaust of a Dan who sold his 2009 model. I think it was in Elland?

As soon as they make one that dosen't need to be maintained like a 1908 Matchless... I shall pop down to the dealer and purchase one  :mfr_lol: ... I mean ...really ... the bloody 1199 Panigale has 15,000 mile service intervals.....pop round the shops on the GTR and tis 'spanners-a-blur'....  :banana:
She is like the Bumblebee, she should not fly....... and yet she does!

Guys its Darren. Lonewolf knows me from the XJROC site. he had my spare plastic rack. one of you had my Black Beowulf exhaust and another had my Rad cover.

Based in Ackworth, west yorks.  I had a GSX1400 for a few months then got shut, not for me after all.

Wish Thursday would hurry up and get here. :smiley:

None of them :mfr_lol:   it was the bike and the fact that my ass and back was killing me on the other bike..

Just bought all my extra's.  more or less the same stuff as I had on the old one.

Add Kevin to that list as well  :whistling:

He probably made a wise choice in selecting to tour Iceland this summer. Just on the wrong bike

:whistling: Indeed!  George, you know I love the GTR, but as Johnny Depp said "if you love two people at the same time, choose the second. Because if you really loved the first one, you wouldn't have fallen for the second."
Four is fun.  Six is sex.
