Hey Dudes,

MarkPMB, BAMmono, ZXRichard, Epstein, Mark, Ted Edwards??? You dudes still around polishin your 12r!! :D

Been a long time since I have been on here, as you know I traded the 12r A2 back in April 03, for a Gixxer thou! :shock: :D

I must admit I have no regrets on making the change as it suits what I needed the bike for, I have done a few Track days this year and it's great for that. 8)

Dont get me wrong I still love the 12R as it is an awesome machine and still looks cool! 8) I have seen the 2004 model!! It looks great and they have brought back the BLUE!!! , I must admit that new ZX10 looks tempting!! 8) :D

Is Ted Edwards still about?? He moved to Virginia from the UK to set up a bike business at the begining of the year havent heard from him since?? :(

hehehe I am not a regular on the Gixxer forums, no one seems bothered to reply to any topics!! without a doubt this site rules and it's great to see the regulars still pushing the newbies into wheelies!! :D 8)

Let us know the news of what been happening over the last 8 months 8)

p.s. Hey Rich still going to those clubs with all those loose women?? hehehe :lol: :lol:

8) Hey dude,

Good to see your still around! in true MONO tradition!! hehehe :D :D

The Gixxer wheelies really well!, If your gettin a ZX10 you will notice exactly what I noticed how easy it is to ride and a piece of piss to wheelie as well. :wink:

Hey, that ZX10 looks great, we havent got it in the UK yet, it will be the start of 04 I guess. Im going to the UK bike show in November so it should be there. 8)

I swore that I would keep my gixxer for another year......but sometimes you gotta be reckless so I might be back in the ZX forum before you know!! :D

Maybe I should swing a trip out to the US sometime, be a while since Ive been out there! :(

When you pickin it up?? you will have to drop me a line a let me know what you think of it. :D

Hey Ted!

Glad to hear your going good dude! :D 8)

Dunno really on the wheelies, probably about the same length as the 12r. It's long enough. I am trying to slow em down and get em more vertical. I nearly flipped it a few times while practising it gets really unstable so I am going back to the old way and not so vertical! :shock: :lol:

Hehehe DIY!! :shock: that won't last dude, specially when you get calls from your buds asking if you are comin out to play!! hehehehe :lol: :lol:

Yeah it hasnt been a bad year just an expensive one!! :shock: :lol: Keith is fine, his chick left him though!! :? but he has got over it and replaced her with a younger model she is 18 years old!! he will be 40 next year!! hehehe :roll: His bike packed up the Clutch basket exploded so he quickly part ex it for a K3 gixxer 8) Everyone else is the same I guess. It seemed a bit flat this year on the bike front. I think everyone is gettin bored of it!!?? :shock: :?

I did a Track day at Brands which was awesome!! I manged to deck the pegs out on the gixxer round druids and clearways!! :shock: Didnt think you could peg a gixxer!! hehehe :lol:

hehehe Header12r is right! errr I went to essex with the 200mph dudes, I did some stunts on the highway (M25) and when I touched the wheelie down at 103mph I had a cop car behind me with the flashing lights blazin!! I shit me pants!! :shock: :lol: :lol:

He had it all on Video!!! luckily he was in a rush and gave me 3 points and a fixed penalty fine!! 8)

The good thing was my gixxer dynoed at 157 Rwhp!!! with air temp of 29C!!! which I thought was pretty damn good! 8)

Keep in touch dude!! I think I will try and get on here more often and try and get my buds to talk me into a ZX10!! :lol: just need some green stuff first!! mind you I love my gixxer it is sex! :twisted: :lol:

Hey Header,

I think I am going up on the Monday 17th I think it aint confirmed yet, the local buds have the same idea with the minibus!! hehehe :lol: I will let you know when the organiser lets me know so we can hook up if we go up on the same day 8)
