newbie here.
im matt from chesterfield,derbyshire.

i think theres a few on here i know from rsvzone and aprilia performance
like nooj and d-rider ect.

i use to have an 03 rsv but now get my kicks on a 1997 honda fireblade
in the colour affectionately classed by most on aprilia sites as monkey sick
yellow/purple lol

id always wanted an old school blade,after having several R1's inc a 98,2000 and 2003 models all in blue.

also tried different bikes like a yamaha xjr1300,k1 gixer thou,srad gixer 750 ect.

heard quite a bit about this sight so i thought id have a peek and see what the crack was so to speak

be kind and ill have a nosey around.
cheers all.

Yes indeed!

Nothing against the italian stuff you understand - just that I feel a bit outnumbered sometimes!

Welcome BIG UN!
