    Hi All,

    I live in sunny South Africa.
    My Current bike is an all Black 2012 Fireblade, with a Taylor Made exhaust and a few other extras.
    Previous bike was a 2005 Repsol Fireblade, with a very many extras.

    Not much else to say really except I love bikes and I love to ride.

    Thanks exfire:)

    Yes it is great riding here!
    Although probably more due to the great weather than anything else.

    Thanks sps and Raphael :)

    Yes I definitely agree, Black is the best colour.
    I actually only bought the Repsol because there where no Black bikes available at the time.
    I did enjoy the Repsol colours but I like the Black bike more.

    Thank you all for the welcoming messages.
    I am sure I will be spending many hours on the forum whether it be for mindless chit chat, to find help or help out :)
