Hi Chris

im afraid i dont know of any clubs in the Strathclyde area (been having a quick look myself) best thing i can suggest is taking a run down to largs on a sat or sunday afternoon, pull up and have a chat with all the guys that are there friendly bunch ya know ….. oh and ya cant miss them always about 20 – 30 bikes in the carpark on the waterfront

maybe see ya there ….. so long as ya dont laugh at my L plates []

Hi Big and welcome to the forum, must say im amazed now we have a few Scotish members, i myself am fae the port but shhhhhhh, maybe we could get a forum 99 ride sorted round george square [] and big, i have a kymco zing also 125 but yeah looking at going for my tset and then getting a GPZ500

Thanks for the advice im, Bike is booked in for its 6month service week after next, so hopefully i can get everything sorted then,

orederd my motorbike theory test book already …. damn its going to be like being back at school but like you say well worth it at the end

yeah i like the sound of the Kawasaki GPZ500 and nice and easy to get spares for them to i believe, well went to the bike school today [] looks like its going to cost between £300 – £500 to get through my test, well it looks like the good lady is just going to have to starve for a while to come up with the money []

thanks imp

well to be honest as its my first bike i dont really have much to compare it to but i must admit it is a very smooth ride and very nippy around the town figure thats coz its a light bike and im only 9.5 stone , only done a few longish runs on it cause of the weather here in bonny scotland and i have found that if am doing top speed yeah ok dont laugh 65mph for to long when i stop the engine splutters and sometimes cuts out i figure its just starting to overheat?? also a problem someone may know the answer to is one of my mirrors likes to move itself in the ball joint when i go over a bump, gets very annoying having to straighten it all the time and i cant see any way to prevent it from happening but all in all nice bike and high mpg lucky if i put £5 in the tank every fortnight[]

thanks xv i like my cruier for the comfy ride but i have started to want to get the knee down on the deck now – dont think thats such a good idea on a cruiser
