    Hello from scotland

    Hi,

    greetings from south west scotland.

    Just joined up as im lookin into gettin an AT. Decided to actually use my bike licence since I went to all the trouble of taking the test.

    My biking history is less than stunning having owned a dt50x, a dt125R and vintage vespa. so time for a change.

    I do however have a bit of Honda heritage on the car front so its not all bad.

    Im doing my information gathering at the moment so i'll be on here looking for stuff and probably have a few questions at some point.

    looking forward to exploring.

    cheers,
    G.

    Zehpe, keep an ear out on a Friday afternoon when the bloody wind dies down a bit and you'll hear me blatting past your hoose on the way home for the weekend.....

    Welcome aboard and good luck in the search for an @ - it might take some time and be prepared to be very, very frustrated, but dont give up - they are like buses - just after I got mine after a long painful wait there were loads available in the area and some were better for the same or less cash, so hold out for exactly what you are after, but as with anything, stick to your budget.

    Above all - enjoy!
