I've been out on the bike this afternoon with Nick.
We stopped in SP for a look around.
I couldn't resist it, and ended up buying a Jet black CBR900 Fireblade.
Glad Nick was with me, as they gave me twice as much more part exchange than I was expecting, 'cause he's a loyal customer.
Pick it up early next week, so you should see it on wednesday at the pub meet.
Will post up some pics once I have it.

Nice bike...
Not as new as Jim's new Fireblade...but still nice...
He couldn't decide between that one or a black Kwacker ninja 750...
We discussed it with Dave and Steve, and thought it best to take the natural progression from a CBR600 to the Fireblade.
I test rode it for him, as he was a bit nervous...

and it ran out of fuel...
I didn't go that far...

Just picked her up.
Boy, what a difference from CBR600 to Fireblade.
SP put a set of new Metzeler tyres on it for the MOT, so have to take it easy for a while.

Good job too, Me and Nick just passed a police speed trap on the way home.
Will post up some pics, see you all soon on a rideout.
