Had mine since new in June 2009 ... enjoyed the Beaconsfield ride outs but times changed and eventually got fed up with the risk on the roads ... :police:





Resorted to this...









Progressed to this :moto:




One lapse of concentration later at around 110mph indicated I left the track and a gravel run and tyre wall interface later meant I ended up doing this  :rofl:

Pilot faired OK to considering  :shocked:






so one careful owner...  :rofl:






Sorted the issues out put it back together with track fairings and got my confidence back...  :evil:








And still dong this with it...  :moto:












Soooo its now 2018... 9 years later I think its a keeper  :afro:

Would love a newer model with all the bells and whistles but while this one owes me nothing its hard to justify spending all that money when I can go have my fix on track with some like minded mates nowadays.

The Z that arrived in my possession in April 2016, used daily and has proved to be a very capable bike indeed, not sure what could replace it tbh


The GSXR became mine in October 2010 and I swear Alzo has had about 20 keepers since then  ;)
Started off like this


Looks like this now

Flickr seems to work but not via the Flickr app.  Have to go through the web page which is a bit of a chore.  Other forum software just lets you cut n paste the URL and sorts all the [img] bollocks out itself.

The above works on phones, tablets etc.

Seems much simpler than Flickr

All my photos automatically backup to Flickr so it's just convenient.
