Hi, My name is Sam. Been riding bikes since i was a Kid, Mainly Crossers and Bitsa Bikes, I've had my Full licence about 15-16 Years, I've owned all sorts of Bikes but my Main love is Suzuki GSXR's. I owned a 2001 Blade in between about 5 or 6 Gixxers and didn't really like it, I preferred the fun factor of being pinned flat out on a 750 and could throw one of those around so easily so i went back to a GSXR 750, I've spent fortunes getting my Current bike how it looks now. I've done all kinds of Riding, from Daily commuting into London, to weekend Blasts around Essex, European Tours and Track Days. The Gixxers have always been my weapon of choice, but I feel like a change again, I'm not a fan of the new GSXR 1000 as it isn't very pretty whereas the new Blades are so pretty, i would go as far as saying they are the best looking (Non Italian) bike out there at the Moment, I done the Ron Haslam Race school last week and fell in love with the Blade i took round Donnington. and as soon as i got home i went on ebay and Bought a 2012, 20th Aniversarry Blade i pick it up in a few weeks as it's in Barnsley and i'm in London so need to find a weekend i can get there. I'm so excited about getting the Blade and can't wait to start getting used to it. I'm going to do some Mods to it pretty much straight away but will start a new thread on those later as i have lots of Questions i need to ask. anyway, look forward to getting to know you all, and hopeflly help out with my Knowledge of Bikes.
