And another one!
« on: February 23, 2009, 22:08:02 »
And I just joined your board too!  :shy:
What attracted me was the startpage when you come via Google with search string "v-strom forum". You get here: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=97&p=571
That intro about the board's endeavours, that's what attracted me.  :guitar:  
I didn't know what I would see when I'm "in" (an empty board?, idiots?, freaks?, Gordon Brown?, my lover in spe?, he he  :haha: ) because you first need to register. :grin: But that didn't stop me, sorry!  :mrgreen:  
8-)  


Enough!!!

No, one more: Andy's "one decent V-Strom.co.uk meet this year" - I'm up for it! No matter how far to go, I bought a luggage system 3 weeks ago.  :whistle:
(well, to be honest, I haven't yet figured out how to install it.  lol )

And I'll try to post some useful stuff here (as was requested too), once I got to know the board a bit...
I've seen enough to put safety first!
Have you?

Thanks Andy boss!  :thumb:

Hm, I just wondered how you blokes & gals all get that super photo quality - with only 12k permitted...?  :-(
I had to upload 4 versions before the size was accepted (with the sh.. quality you see), indeed 12k, no trick.  :dmn:

If the facts don't fit the theory, change the facts.

Good. Then I'll get someone shoot a pic of me on my bike, better than that garage pic...

Hi, Is the other bike an SR125 Yamaha?

I think so. Didn't look at it much, it's in the firm's garage. I aimed to show the immense size of "our" bikes, compared to the "normal" bikes  :mrgreen:
I always find the V-Strom huge when I park it next to other bikes! I'd only like the seat higher, it feels so low.  :thumb:
Yeah, I know I could buy one higher - but not now...

hello  :grin:

Hello, is your avatar fake or is that real?  :grin:  I mean, do the penguins show that kind of attitude, like humans would?  :hammer:

Just a bit curious. So, if anyone is a zoologist here....

I have no idea  :grin:  I'd like to think that penguins behaved like that though  :grin:
