South West Bikers | Motorcycle Forum

Hi there,

my names Jonny and I am soon to be 19, live in Abbotskerswell and work in Newton Abbot (in the council offices).

I've been rideing a 1984 Suzuki GSX550EF since I was just 17 (through all seasons). All my biker mates have gone off traveling in their gap years and I am getting bored of riding on my own.

I am probably going to start reguraly attending rideouts (if I can keep up). I'm looking to upgrade to a 750cc next month when my liscence is de-restricted. Probably a ZX7R or GSXR750 from 1995-2000. I'm finding the 60bhp or so that my current bike is making a bit dull.

look forward to getting thrashed by you all in the next ride out.

Hiya

something doesn't quite add up

Yeah well what are you gona do? I've been issued a producer twice by police and neither times was restricting certificates mentioned, I know several people in similar positions to me and none of them have had any issues with the bhp of their bikes. The only time I have ever heard of the police checking is when you are speeding exesivley, and of course I dont do that

Hello and welcome mate

Welcome to SWB I hope we see you soon.

If you can afford to insure it - ZX7R is what you need . Too many Gixers on this site already and need balancing out.
