    Hi everyone. Colin from Bristol here. Joined this forum couple of years ago I think but went of the radar shortly after because some twat rammed me on a roundabout, destroying my R1 before I could replace it with a fireblade. Some titanium plates and pins and 18 months of physio later I'm as good as new and picking up this 2006 cbr1000rr in less than 2 weeks. Hope the colour grows on me. Won't be buying leathers to match though!!! Screenshot_2016-09-24-12-42-50-127~2.png

    Not sure Jandy. I'll be getting rid of it anyway for something less weird. I would sell it but doubt I'd get any offers!

    Looks pretty comfy if your missus has got piles or had rather large babies...I'd give it a whirl in the for sale section...you never know :D

    I'll give it a go Lossy and use what you said about the missus as a sales pitch!
