Hello
 

Thought I'd say hi to the GM as I live in Crowthorne and am in the process of making my recently acquired Curvy road legal.

So ...um..... Hi :riding:

Re: Hello
 

Hi and Welcome :)

Hopefully see you at some of the meets (even though we are not regular visitors any more), we're hoping to get to some soon when we get chance to anyway.

Re: Hello
 

Er......Hello back at ya! :)

We're a friendly bunch, come to one of the meets. We don't bite!*


*I don't bite, can't vouch for the others though. ;)

Re: Hello
 

Law is lying, he does bite, just keep him at arms length away and you'll be fine ;)

Welcome dude, good luck getting you bike on the road, I still got those bike bits if you want them.

Re: Hello
 

Cheers Wayne. I may still be interested in the rear plastocs. Just need to wait a couple of weeks to see if my wife gets a job or not before I can commit to buying them from you. I looked at my current infill panels and they seem fine, so I dont need yours.

Will post a pic of the bike when I get round to it.

Hi to everyone else.

Any of you do the Xmas Toy Run from Foster Wheeler? 2006 was the first one I missed for 8 years...

Very very good. Over 2000 bikes go from Whitley to Wokingham on a Sunday afternoon and the Police block all the roads n stuff. Great fun.

Re: Hello
 

Cool, looks fun, must be a bit chilly though :D

Ah, quite a bit of damage there, mostly comestic though by the looks of it.

Black Curvy :thumbsup:

Re: Hello
 

A bit chilly, but not too bad most years. At least on the way THERE its OK. The way back is often really cold. Its worth it just for the sound of 30 bikes at a time doing shotguns/revving the nuts off their bikes under the bridge in Winnersh.

I have all but the front brake cylinder reservoir to make it road legal again. Then all it will need is the plastics and a nice CCC can to make it look and sound nice.

I bought most bits from Ebay, Busters or Bristol Bike Hut. So far I have saved 772 quid by not buying new genuine Suzuki parts.

Re: Hello
 

Hi,
good luck with the bike. It all seems like a lot of hardwork, but once you've got it all sorted you'll find it's definitely worth while.

I always find it brings you closer to a bike, once you've buggered it and then fixed it up! I was fairly emotionless about my SV until it got set fire to, and then the mending process brought us closer :cool:

Then after my last accident (where my frame weld developed a crack), I had to strip the bike to a bare frame, get it welded and then throw it back together. The process was long, but the satisfaction when she passed her mot on Friday was immense.

Hope to see you (and everyone else) at a meet soon,

Mart

Hi! Welcome to the GMassive.

Re: Hello
 

welcome to the GM

Re: Hello
 

Howdy, I used to live in Crowthorne! I always though it was a nice safe place to live until my fist little bike got nicked. Ah well, that's what living on the High Street does for you. Welcome!

Re: Hello
 

Hi - think I'm still in the GM?

Re: Hello
 

Didn't we sell you to the soho massive? ;)

Re: Hello
 

Sell??? I thought we had to pay

Re: Hello
 

sorry stu, just kidding

Re: Hello
 

Hello Colby, I live in crowthorne too :D
So where abouts are you??, if you need a hand with the bike lt me know.

Jon:cool:

Re: Hello
 

I live down towards the old TRL entrance. Where abouts are you?

I might well take you up on that hand as the throttle is very stiff and I need to work out why....

Ideas have been:

Need lubrication
Bent right clip on(dont know if its bent or not)
Cables have come off the runner inside the throttle grip
