    IIRC, it was dangerous, back when we both owned a VTR1000. We 'met' on a Firestorm forum, and he pointed me here.
    My first post was a query about braided brake lines - I'd just fitted some, and then found out they were illegal. D'Oh!

    I wasn't vifferman back then - I was firestormer. I think someone else has that name now.
    ... and that's what I think.

    Or summat.


    Or maybe not...

    Dunno really....

    Google found it for me as well. I'd only just begun getting interested in motorbikes, and at that stage I wasn't sure if I'd even get one. KB changed all that, I was stung into action. Sat my BHS and my learners, bought a bike, and I was away. Hung around for a few months, got a bit disillusioned and disheartened with the whole thing, and didn't bother coming on for several months. Then after a while away, without really thinking about it, I hopped on again to take a look... and have been lurking since. Have learnt a heap of stuff since joining and met a few people - but not that many since not that many Christchurch members bother posting. I've given up trying to find someone to ride with down here and just ride on my own most of the time, or go on the sportzone ride, where the guys don't muck around. I like the pace of their rides.

    Was googling for information on Bikes and how to purchase them. I signed up, couldnt think of a name, didnt really think I would get hooked on kb or post all that much, so picked 'Lissa' - borning... meaning Melissa of course... When I first started in Sept (?) I didnt even have a bike... now 9 months later I am on my second one.

    Glad I did join, meet some fantasic people from my area, and welly and from all around the country, some I have meet others I havent yet.

    Yeah Lissa, I agree it can be a life changing thing.

    Without KB I would never have met my partner or my good mates that I have made... I think I owe Zed a lot just on the value of the people his refferal gave me.

    limbimtimwim - was a work colleague at the time. He more or less got me interested in bikes too; I'd looked half-heartedly before, but nothing serious.

    When I was asking about what bike to get, he was looking here, so I joined up for the trading forum.

    Spankme used to use the same Fish'n'Chips shop when I lived in Epsom, bumped into him there.

    Like OAB, I was (am) a member of www.esportbike.com.
    Wari posted on the site the day after it was set up, I came for a look and I'm still here.............

    He lies.

    If you hover your cursor over your username, it gives you a link down the bottom with the last bit saying u=XXX where XXX is your member number.

    Something's up with that method, cos when I mouse over Riffer I get 2801 and I get 419 for Big Dog, not Sniper.
