|Thanks to BC and Hull750Rider for comments on ER6. Got it this afternoon but can't get out on it till the morn. I'll let you know what I think at BC's meet next week. Looks a bit small for me tho!!
Getting out on bike for first time in weeks.
Getting on the back of my friend Rach's bike was her first time taking a pillion and she was little nervous. Round all the little back streets so she had lots of stop starts and tight bends.
She did a great job and now realises how much a pillion effects a bikes control
I was a erm little bigger when I had the ER FW but made no odds to it was a little gem handled like a train on rails round bends lifted front end if you gave it the beans. It's a little hooligan given it's head lol.
I'm pretty sure unless to travel a long distance and it becomes uncomfy it'll bring a little smile to your face!
Oh what colour is it? Mine was the black with deep red metallic frame!
Hi Hull...This one is silver with a deep red frame. Had a quick blast on it this morning.. it does handle well, flicks in to corners very nicely - good brakes too. Actually it is not as small as it looks when you sit on it. Still need to get used to having half the BHP that I am used too tho, but I'll get used to it, not bad for first impressions..Are u going to Rose's next Sat, U could have a look at it there...

doing something completely naughty and self indulgent this morning and loving it !!
When they built my local falconry centre I tried to get work there, but was told they'd only offer work to volunteers and you had to agree to work every weekend, starting at 5am etc etc... As I was already working at 4 different jobs at the time, I couldn't fit it in
whooopeeeee!!!! Has written the essay and submitted it! I am free for a week, no more books, no more stressing about an essay! (Until the final one in 5 weeks time!)... I was so worried about it, but once I started, it was ok!
