    Hello

    Initially joined last year but fell out with Honda. Anyway got over it and I have ordered a new 2012 HRC, which will be with me in a few weeks. Look forward to spending lots of time here and meeting some of you.

    New 1000RR first good run out had a some 'moments' on a few left handers. Thought nothing of it maybe gravel/new tyres crap riding etc. When I got home started to clean the bike and noticed some oil on the rear left of my wheel and then on closer inspection the oil was also on the shoulder of the tyre, hence the slides. Looking further the front sprocket was thick with oil/grease and this was running down the side stand. To say I was excedingly pissed off would be putting it mildly.

    But time has moved on and I will be back on what I believe to be an exceptional bike.

    Enjoy the forum buddy, did consider getting an RR1000, but insurance put a stop to that almost double the cost.

    Just got back from a great holiday in the Dordogne. Whilst there was planing a few days away on our return on my new Blade, which I collected yesterday. Things will have to be put on hold as the weather is now crap. If only I had been home last week!!
