OK - as the original thread was getting waaaaaaay to long and cluttered
(and editting it was going to be like painting the Forth Bridge 
) we're gonna start afresh...
... only this time with RULES!
Purpose of the thread is to show off your bike, but also to tie names to faces (with string) and to see the people behind the bikes you may pass on the street.
So - photos of you, your bike, and perhaps a list of any modifications you done
(to either) for those wannbes who can't think of anything original to do to their own machine! 
Keep the messages of appreciation to PM's
IN OTHER WORDS....
NO CHIT CHAT !, visitor messages, or even start another thread about it if you really feel the urge to up your post count.
As for the chat - you know where to take it:
And no - I'm not starting it all off with a pic of me and my bike - I sold it 
- and I don't exist anyway.
