Hello everyone out there,
I have just discovered this forum (many thanks to Gixerchick!). Heres a picture of my GSXR fondly called ‘The handbag’ because it looks a bit like a tarts handbag, It looked like this when I bought it but now it looks a bit different because it hasnt got an engine in it anymore , it went bang a couple of weeks ago. Hopefully I will get it back on the road soon, assuming I can find all the nuts and bolts that bounced to the four corners of the garage when I took it to pieces.
Anyone here going to the TT ??
All the best

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, But rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, vacuum in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming…….WOO HOO, there goes another engine!
Hiya Richy… finally us Suzy riders are outnumbering the Yammy riders. By any chance did Gixer touch your bike prior to your engine going pop??
Go out with a BANG… Light a fart!
Hey I aint touched no ones bike!!!!![:0]

Hiya Richy,Welcome. Hope its not too long before you get bike fixed.
I’m not riding fast, I’m just flying low. and please DONATE to this website
Welcome mate, good luck patching up the Suzzy. I have never been to the TT, but I did go to the manx GP held during September in 1987 and had a brilliant time.
Donate – Or Imperial Data will have you sorted!Thanks for your greetings everyone,
I got my replacement engine yesterday and managed to get it in the frame using string, a skateboard and some bits of wood. Going to plug it all back in tonight, will have to wait until Wednesday before I will be able to start it up though as I junked the header bolts, im waiting for the replacements to turn up at my local dealer.
btw, Gixerchic is innocent !I was doing a search for a replacement engine for my bike when I came across the picture of her bikes engine with a big hole in it.
Off to the TT on June 2nd, havent been since 2002, so Im well excited !!!
