Enemy (Guest) - WELCOME! The 04 1150R with ABS is IMO the best Beakster ever made - congrats on a great decision you will love the bike.

Frank - what a lovely family you have, thanks for sharing the pictures.

Ah yes. Can't say I'm on either side of the fence on this one. Only rode an ABS bike once for about 50 miles. It was a Honda with VTEC, so that bugged me more then anything else :)

OK, OK. I get the message - here are some pictures.

The top one shows myself and Rachel setting off for Bike Night on Wednesday 31st August.

The three underneath are of myself, Elaine and Rachel on holiday in the Maldives last month. We have a son, David, who is 17. I have no recent pictures on this PC of him though. He has an Aprilia scooter and is learning to drive a car at the moment. He's a great kid too.

Cheers
