I knew I'd get round to intro's! Lol

Hello everyone,

Just a quick intro with a few pictures. My name's Neil, 35, Train driver from Kent, UK

Only passed my test a few months ago so this is my first bike, and I'm slowly but surely getting there with it!

Bike how it started out:



And how it is now:







Colours are Lamborghini Murcielago Orange and Silver with the later type decals in Carbon Fiber.

Hope you like, although i do understand the Orange is a taste thing, you either love it or hate it!

Neil

Northern munkey? From Kent

Anyway, welcome to the forum

I like what you have done to the bike, it's gotta bit of a hayabusa look to it in my opinion

LOL! Yeah, i was born in the lakes and grew up in blackpool mate!

Hence all these southern fairies call me monkey boy!

Cheers for the comments, not sure about it looking like a busa though. Maybe time for a repaint! Lol

Hi and welcome Northern Monkey Neil

Your other vehicle isn't one like this is it.......


Looks very clean anyway. Mine's a bit orange but that takes the jaffa!

Cheers
Rosco

Lol Rosco,

I actually quite like that truck!

You sure you wouldn't wanna be putting cow horns on it somewhere?

er WOW well there's one thing - no need to put you on spotted there can't be more than one looking like that around - wouldn't be my cup of tea (as everyone on here will testify i am very quiet and like to stay in the background - you won't notice i'm there) but its certainly a nice job - do you have matching leathers

Fortunately not! Ha ha!

I did say, it's a personal thing and I completely understand how some people would find it too much!

Thanks for your nice comments though buddy!

Welcome aboard

Nice colour scheme!

lol i thought i'd said hello to you before - i see we now have 2 northernmonkeys just spelt differently this'll be good if you're both in chat at the same time!

Hello and welcome.

A nice looking, colourful bike you hae there.

Hi Neil, welcome - whereabouts you in Kent?

Shouldn't be too hard to spot you. Suvern softies hey mind you I'm considered a bit more sarf than most :o

I too noticed that mate, if it's easier, I'm more than prepared to change my user name to save any confusion?

Go through Faversham from time to time, might see you about on the road or at the bike parking in Rye.

Yip over 6 ft (wide and tall)

<--- didn't say a bloody word! Anyway, he'll never spot me on an Orange bike (shaking!) Lol

Sorry Steve!

Hey, no worries I probably wouldn't be able to catch you anyway

Hi & welcome. I love the bike very striking & unique.

Looks awesome mate well done..... much nicer than the original colours and tastefully done too.

the more i look at it the more i like it (shame its not red/white/black tho )

Lol, but that'll be the same as all the rest!

Welcome aboard!! I like colour schemes that are different from everyone elses!!






Ellie

Hi Neil,

Like the colour scheme mate, or should I say brother? lol! Thats how I got my nickname when I moved down south from Manchester. It kinda sticks after bit!!

Hi & Welcome,

Very, very nice bike, if someone described it i'd be unsure but looks crackin' in pictures and sure even nicer in flesh!

And now 2 on forum that get me thinkin of Lee Evans, one of his things where he gets called 'monkey boy' as well, and nickname for pal of mine to.

All these northern monkeys & southern shandy drinkers makes the midlands feel almost appealing, almost!!

Enjoy the bike & forum, all the best!

I actually think it's been done really well , I like the orange , it is loud but I like loud !
