At last!
« on: February 17, 2013, 08:41:10 »
I did post an introduction when I first started looking into buying a Vee but after getting my redundancy money from Jessops I've taken delivery of one :-) Very happy and it looks great being all black. Blimey it's huge compared to my Bandit!!

Apologies for the number of questions I'll be posting in the next couple of days!!

Thanks for the warm welcome  :)  The wife is very happy as its bigger and it's black lol  

The redundancy was a shock but after 25yrs I had enough to buy the bike, cover some bills and pay for a holiday and I managed to get a job in Machine Mart straight away so all is good (apart from the staff prices are rubbish!)

As the photography, mine is terrible! That's why I sold cameras rather than use them!
