Oi!... some of us are proper celebs I'll have you know...Sky news, UK Living, the fitness channel, Herts Biker magazine, and various other 'quality' day time TV outlets....thas why I didn't go to the Meet up... see....  one requires a VIP room, a crate of champers and a couple of page 3 girls before I'll turn up anywere.. :mfr_lol: :mfr_lol: :mfr_lol: :gunsmilie:


anyway Captain Slow has/had an XJR1300 and as far as I know he never turned up on any of  the forums...
Mog, you crack me up, you should be on tele full time.      "The comedians"  :mfr_lol:

Captain Slow would try to talk into the mouse to login to an online forum.  :help:

Hamster on a GTR would be funny, especially the first time he tried to do a U-turn on gravel.
I have nothing against the vertically deficient but why someone short would buy a bloody huge great TALL bike like the GTR or a dirt/trail/adventure bike is beyond me.
About as stupid as me buying an FS1E for a European tour.  :scooter: :mfr_lol:

..why someone short would buy a bloody huge great TALL bike like the GTR or a dirt/trail/adventure bike is beyond me. :huh:

I'm a short arse at 5ft 7 inch and don't find the gtr1400 to be a problem :nono: infact when I'm riding the gtr I feel just as confident than on my zx6r which as approx the same seat height.. ok I've fitted a lower gel seat on the gtr which is slightly lower but to be honest it dosen't make that much difference. the other reason I bought the gel seat is for comfort to make the touring trip I've got planned in a few weeks more easier on my arse... it's not imperative to "flat foot" both sides on any bike :nono: as long as you can get one foot flat on the ground I've confidence in your ability to handle "what ever bike you have" the gtr is as light as any other bike. I've owned my gtr1400 for nearly 2 years and not once I've I felt I could not handel the size :smiley:
getting on now...  but not as old as Rog or Geoff

Spy shots, always me laugh when magazines say spy shots. Spy shots my arse.

OK so the Furry Hamster turned out to be a Red Herring.

I guess as administrator only Kwikasfuki can check this out but I have been "pulled over" twice and the name on my license has saved me from a few points I'm sure !

(Sort of ironic that I join a forum with a fair % of black rats !

Certainly no celebrity though !

Kwikasfuki: don't let it slip - let em keep guessing! They'll get bored and give olde coney some grief again!
