My name is Sam, i’m 36 and live in Romford, Essex and i’ve been a GSXR Addict for 20 years now…(I hate these intro’s, always feels like an AA meeting, Not that i’ve been to one!! lol)
Anyway…
I’ve been riding Bikes since i was about 14/15 (Crossers etc). I Passed my test when i was 21 and have had many bikes in that time from 400’s right up to 1000’s. My main love is GSXR’s (Mainly the 750) which is what i currently ride.
I have a 2004 GSXR 750 Which is custom Painted in Lamborghini Pearl Orange. It is the nicest bike to ride i’ve owned and probably my Favorite looking Gixxer they have made today (Apart from the old Slab side). I find the 1000’s amazing to ride Fast and in straight lines, But the 750 is so much more useable and you can throw it around so much better. I’m a little bored of the lack of Exhaust Grunt and straight line speed, but the Cornering ability and out and out fun factor of the 750 makes up for it no end.
I have done some great things on my Bikes, I’ve Toured some of the countries finest Race Tracks following BSB and done Donnington countless times for the MOTO GP when it was there,
I’ve Toured Europe on the bikes (France, Italy, Germany, Holland, Spain) Mainly following Moto Gp but also done Euro Holidays on the Bike to Monaco & Barcelona and have been lucky enough to ride through the Alps & Pyranees as well as other amazing European Roads on my way to these places.
But that all had to stop when the Kids came along as my Priorities had to change, But now they are older and my Personal life has changed, it’s time to start enjoying the Bike properly again. My main Love with Bikes is Race Bred Bikes, I have a real love of Race Rep Bikes on the road (Probably the Essex in me!!) and my next bike will definately be having a Race Rep paint Job doing again (Had a Kenny Roberts Telephonica Movistar GSXR 750 about 10 years ago).
Anyway, That’s me… enough of the story telling
lol
I found this Site by Chance as met a few of you at High Beach yesterday and Tagged along on your ride out as i was a Billy No Mates!! (I know Slan & GixxerNinja already so they invited me along on the ride when i unknowingly bumped into them at High Beach) Seems a very friendly place and the ride out was Awesome so seems only right i join up and get to know you all properly as i fully expect to join up on more Ride outs in the future as i had such a good day yesterday and hope to have many more.
Hope you like my Introduction and look forward to meeting up with you all for more Rideouts and Meet Ups.
Cheers
Sam
