    Just joined and say hi.

    Got an FZ600, which is a fz400r bike with an XJ600 motor in so we have a lot in common.

    bike was given to me and so far have serviced it and rebuilt the wheels with new rubber.

    going to repaint eventually in Gulf colours

    check out my spelling, I'm from the UK :wink:

    guess what's next on the to do list?

    .... clean the carbs :?

    There's a hella lot more clubs than those two in the Greater Manchester area, those are only the two Premiership clubs.

    So, answer his question.
