Here are just some pics i took today at NEC
Had a brilliant day out and decided once my nc29 is finished its going up for sale and im getting another mk1 fireblade as there was one at the show and i miss mine .

My sister was amused by this 50cc scooter version of her cbr600f4i lol

The new cbr600f

Me and my brother thinking of investing in some crossers

The missus got John mcguinness and Connor cummins to sign her jacket

Connor cummins signed my helmet

So did the milky bar kid, Richard Quayle

And John mcguinness

The missus caught her off guard lol


Sister on zx10r

Me on zx10r, i really dont like it, the mirrors are in a wierd place and the front is too open if you know what i mean













omnomnomnomnom i so want one



Brothers missus (non biker) seeing how she likes the cbr125

Connor cummins making fun of the other halfs height



I quite like this

The missus on her dream bike






The paint work on this was awesome










Dont have a clue what this was all about







Found a bike the missus likes RSV4 125 lol

Did you notice that early fireblade had 86k miles on it and was spotless!!

Wow that's a lot of photos! Looks like you had a great day. I'd love to go, but we can't justify the cost of it anymore.

Did you notice that early fireblade had 86k miles on it and was spotless!!

But did you notice it wasn't really "original" it looked like it had a respray and had cheap replacement graphics put on. I will get another one again thinking of selling the nc29 to get one

And yes Jo we had a brilliant day so much so we are thinking of going back on sunday, i need Guy martin and the dunlop brothers to sign my helmet :D lol

great pics thanks.
i had a RRX in the lapis blue / gold colour, and i have to be honest i dont think the early blade has aged well at all.
they look very heavy and clumsy now. fast bikes though.

[petrolhead19]

You see i like the look of the older blades, i like the chunkyness lol.
Same with cars i prefer my older cars, just one of them things.
I also had the 900rrn and loved it, wish i had never sold it

The new blade is really nice but sitting on it you dont feel like your on a proper bike as there smaller than older ones, or is that just me? lol

I went yesterday, one word- sh1te. haven't been for 20 years and won't bother agin for another 20. much smaller than it used to be, you can go to a dealer and see most of the new stuff, which leaves you paying £19 to look around 'shops' selling discounter stuff. Sorry I'm negative but really felt it was a waste of a day. I think the Stafford Classic Show is much better value, far more to see

I fly over on Friday evening to see show on Saturday.
Looking forward to it, went last year & enjoyed the day.
