Hi all,

Newbie from Northumberland.
Just purchased my first ever BMW a 2006 1200gs non abs, in Grey with 40,000 and in mint condition, I have never owned or ridden one before and yes it is weird but loving it so far, hate the indicator switches.
I have owned Triumphs over the last 10 years apart from a new Yamaha XT 1200 S10 in 2011, and woahh! is the BMW quicker
So I will be asking questions probably allot, as I don't really know these bikes, so be gentle and hope to see you all on the road.


Cheers WillyB

Word up bro.

I'm jealous, you live in the most beautiful county in England.

Welcome aboard, ignore the fusty old Nazis in here and you'll be okay, it's a decent little club.
