Hallo all.

Hallo to to everyone, thought it only polite to introduce myself as I've not posted on here before, registered yesterday.
Been riding since I was 13, legally since 16, 43yrs seems to have flown by.
I'm currently on my second xt660, first being a 660R and now a 660Z.
I currently own and ride a TY250R, Yamaha YR5, TR500 Suzuki race bike and a DCM single cylinder 500 race bike.
I've owned a great number of two stroke trials, moto-x, enduro and road race bikes, mostly from back in the day and my passion for strokers never diminishes hence my username.
Previous road bikes are numerous and included a large number of trailies from 1150gs to xt350.
Always been a great fan of Yamaha in all the various formats and they've mostly been my first choice for road or competition.
All the best.
Pete from Northants.
