Hello From Somerset

Discussion in 'Newbies Hangout' started by VINNIE, Nov 15, 2018.

  1. Hi everybody,

    For the past 19 years i have been riding my beautiful 1998 red /white R1, but i have decided its about time i got something just a bit more sensible which does not require me doing 140mph plus to put a smile on my face ,so i have settled on getting a Monster 1200R.Really looking forward to the booming soundtrack and face shifting grunt ,now looking for a really nice bike,

    Cheers all

    Vincent
