    Does an old one count?

    Am I now a gixxer rider Its a 1999 750 but surely that still counts right....



    Oh, and, ummm, does it matter that it was THE "Snail".....

    Yup, its now mine and boy is it great (its a whole new world after my 96 CBR 600).

    A new name is coming but in the meantime and in the Spirit of its previous incarnation and that money I spent on it that I didnt really have Its working title shall be "Gary" (If you dont get it you need to watch more kids TV)...

    Last and certainly not least..... THANKS FROSTY !!!

    I'm thinking of shaving the skirts but that could cause exposure issues

    Old? OLD? That bike is 11 years younger than my beauty. Of course it counts! Welcome to the wonderful world of gixxers, and the nutters who ride them. See you on the road sometime...
