dragonsoup Posted May 6, 2004 Share Posted May 6, 2004 Not feasible for me at the moment, (Old DT175 Yam enduro ,pre watercooled ) . Seriously talking myself into an Aprillia RS 250 though before they become too hard to get hold of . Dragon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cbr Dave Posted May 7, 2004 Author Share Posted May 7, 2004 Hello there Kwakman - btw great choice in bike, just make sure you get loads of security on it, since you last rode, bike theft has shot up. Dont worry about the rust, I ride hard but never dangerous, dont/cant wheely so we just go at a pace that suits everyone. Looks like we have enough riders for a ride out, I know I started this thread but I'm pretty cr*p at organising so if anybody wants to suggest a meeting place for Monday then feel free. I think it best if we PM each other about meeting points/times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwakman Posted May 7, 2004 Share Posted May 7, 2004 Hi Dave glad u like the bike, it came down to a choice between the Kwak and yours (CBR6RR) only deciding factor was the Kwak came in about £400 cheaper. Its got a Datatool system 3 alarm fitted seems to be quite sensitive, once its set if you f**t to clse to it, it goes of. About a meet up, I've been down the Classic Rock Bar on Ecclesall Road a few times, it sounds about right for a bike meet and they have some great musicians and music down there if you're into rock of course. What does everyone reckon? Won't be able to make it till 8:45ish though and all subject to the weather coz getting drenched on a bike just don't float my boat.

JohnC Posted May 10, 2004 Share Posted May 10, 2004 Just seen this thread. I've only recently moved to sheffield (6wks ago). I've ridden the snake a few times... great road, but starting to become too familiar. If anyones up for going out for a ride then let me know. I've not been riding all that long, but got a decent number of miles under my belt. I've just bought a Blue Yamaha R6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cbr Dave Posted May 10, 2004 Author Share Posted May 10, 2004 Yipee more bikers!! Welcome JohnC, hope your finding Sheffield ok!! We've got some great roads for ride outs once you've negotiated a safe path through the pot holes on the city roads that is!! The snake pass is good fun but be careful out there on Sundays , too many plod in bushes for my liking! Ive been in London working for a week so dying to get out on the bike, back tomo if you fancy a tour of the peaks early in the evening?? BTW where have you moved from?

JohnC Posted May 10, 2004 Share Posted May 10, 2004 I've not seen any rozzers on the A57 yet... been lucky I guess! Yeah - what's going on with the roads in and around Sheffield centre, its like riding offroad! I've just moved up from Peterborough, a couple of good roads that way, but fairly flat! I'll be up for a ride tomorrow as long as its not raining (again!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
