Hi, new user here just introducing myself. Been driving cars for 4 years, bikes for almost 2.

heres my history,

04' Hyosung comet gt125 - lovely cheap first bike, with big big looks and a nice vtwin sound



96' kawasaki zzr600 - originally a sportbike, now considered sport-tourer. Extremely underrated little engine, 14K redline, and will happly hit 16K and 155mph in a dangerously quick time
(crashed it a couple of months ago, breaking all ribs, puncturing and collapsing both lungs, multiple pelvic fractures, and three broken vertebrae. the list goes on ...



07' vw polo - nice car, very predictable and reliable




93' saab 900 t16 fpt conv. - much more involving than the polo had the chance to get my hands dirty several times already in the first month of ownership.. love it!




looking forward to hearing any of your comments!

hey cheers, got the saab for a fairly good price as the roof was needing replaced. Bought another one with with a trashed engine but new (6months old) roof for £500, and swapped the roofs over. Saved myself the grand that specialists wanted to supply and fit, and have endless parts!

(pics are with old roof)
