Hmmm, I forgot to mention my bike - I'm a Honda V4 nut and have a very highly modified '94 VFR750 - original factory black. Mods include:
- 2004 R1 forks, radial brakes, front wheel
- CBR929 tripleclamps
- Epro billet clip-ons
- '92 VFR750 8-spoke rear wheel
- Ohlins shock
- Indigo stainless full headers mounted to Wolf dual underseat canisters
- modified bodywork (think NR750)
- an 840cc overbore kit is in the works for 120rwhp
There's nothing quite like a V4!Phantom... Bike Who Parks

I thank you Ninja. I didnt actually test ide it because there was a small matter of my license being two years out of date and they would nt let me try it without it, but I knew Id like it, and I do. Plenty of good roads round here, but the biking weather is still a few weeks off.

Guess it's my turn...
I'm Pat (or Patrick, whichever you want), I'm 25 and am from Stockport which is near Manchester in Britain. My job is as a Building Services Design Engineer, working for a consultancy who design heating, ventilation etc for industrial buildings.
Have been a fan of motor racing of all forms since the mid-nineties, running through F1 and Touring Cars, to CART/Champ Car and F3000 and most other things. I got into British Superbikes in about 1997 and then MotoGP and WSB in 2000 and haven't looked back. I also set up and ran my uni karting team for three years after trying it when I first got there, and am doing an indoor series this year amongst other things. I have not yet ridden a motorbike.
Away from racing, I love listening to music and going to gigs, stage shows too - comedy in particular. Reading, cookery, and social drinking [what else? ] fill up much of the rest of my time when not messing about on the net.
My fave riders are Chris Walker, Yukio Kagayama, Alvaro Bautista and Hiroshi Aoyama at the min. Am also in a big James Toseland mood right now"Of course, what many people tend to forget is that Glen Richards was 2nd in the 1993 Australian 125cc championship" - Jack Burnicle on BSB at Snetterton, June 2008

I've also stuck this thread so any newbies (there seem to be plenty about) can have a look without it slipping down the page.

Croatia is nice in TV, but for the fans it isnt so great. Waking up at 2:30 to watch just 2 passes of SS9, cuz there is just NO entrance to the stage
