    Hi guys and girls.
    Just been reading the forum and registering, site looks spot on so figured id say hello.
    Bit the bullet after many months and picked up my 675R the other day, wanted a Daytona for a long time now and decided to stop dreaming and buy one, wont post any pics as it's pretty standard (at the moment)
    As a new owner hopefully it looks like I'm in the right place for advice and to have a good old chat with you all.
    John

    Welcome. Nice bike, whereabouts are you? There's a few up north but it's slightly more sparse.

    I know glenn but don't worry we call "dinner" tea round here and I'll be honest I can't understand what people from Derby or Nottingham are saying half the time, I had to ask what "surey" and "Snap" was once

    LOL.....that place is nearly as bad as Sunderland.....what a dump!

    Actually, pretty much all of the North-East is....too many run-down mining villages.
     
  16. lots of nice little villages but the towns are dumps you are right.

    only £12 return to York for drinks tho

    Yes Glenn, you're right......I get the vocab mixed up sometimes....any place here that has more than 3 residents is called a 'city'....have no idea why - actually I do, it's to do with how places here become "incorporated"....they're all run as a business.
