Hi Guys & Girls...im Stewy and i am an alcoholic........sorry wrong forum start again

Hi there i'm Stewy and i am a old/new member, I used to own a very nice S1W Lightning Strike in silver many moons ago and vowed never to sell her as IMO there is not a better looking bike on the road than an S1 period. The only reason i sold her (here it comes :D ) is because some numpty decided to pull out on me at 60mph, not good. The bike was rebuilt under ins including new frame/tank and a few other bits (surprised they didnt write it off, but they didnt) but when i got her back it just didnt seem the same.......probs sub-conciously but i just wasnt happy, that was 2002 and had my eye on another since then. I am from the north east but have moved recently to Staffordshire.

I have, or about to buy Nicks S1 W lightning......hence the old/new member.....and for info have a GSX 1400 and our lass has a immac 2001 Speed Triple (pics later) and for info i no nowt about how these bloody things work so possibly will be tapping into you guys to get this bike better than it is with lots of tea and biscuits (and money :D) hope to spk to ya al soon.....Enough, i need a drink :shock: Stewy

Gear to wear, just your favourite choice of bike store.

Gear for the bike then depends on what you want to do with it ... :)
