    Hi there fellow KBers (vtec v4)


    Im Dave from cambridge,just joined up after viewing this site.
    im 42,and farming.
    After 15 years without a bike ive taken the plunge,recently purchasing a vfr 800,red,with staintune pipes,high risers,and dna filter,its alot of fun!!.
    I am having some difficulty getting my confidence back.
    So if any of you KB riders are around my area,and wanting to chat,or add another set of wheels to ya cruise,send me a post.

    Welcome to KB mate, Yes it takes time to get back and get the skills you use to have. Many of us older guys and girls have had a breather from riding after either from family or from accidents.
    So dont worry you are not the only one.
    Enjoy
    If you are behind meDont ask as I am lost too.

    Welcome aboard, and give yourself time with getting your confidence back as I was out of the riders seat for just on 20 yrs and i know feel like I have never been out of it. The more you get out riding the quicker you cofidence will come back to you. Happy motorcycling and enjoy being back out there.
