Re: hahahaha idiot with a suzuki

noobie from Barnstaple

greetings all.
Just saying hi! I'm newish to the bike world although I'm actually old, grumpy and set in my ways :D
I'm currently wobbling round the by-ways and highways of North Devon on an FZR400rr so if see me out and about it's probably wise to give me a wide berth!
