Stopped and handed the young man a Carpe Card. Said he was looking for a forum so watch this space.......

If you're (the young man) reading this, I was already ready late for an appointment at St Cath's so was a bit rushed......and hope cockney Dave in the locksmith's wasn't too unkind in the things he may have said!!   ;)  :welcome: ........AND.....it's not ALL just madness here!!

Young???? Haha, i like you already. Great to find a forum of like minded people. Been on the lookout for a decent TDM for a while now, and,,,,long story ,,but a lifetime of sportsbikes has come to a sorry end. But!!onwards and upwards,,loving the relaxed riding and having ample storage for all my gear. All for a grand!!!! Unbelievable!

Good to see the card worked!! Didn't have time for a good look at your bike, but sounded well and the overall look was good....biased!

Dablik's just jealous because he wants my very cheap, brand new RST Blade summer leather trousers....but they're a 34" waist !

Welcome aboard, and like I said there's peeps on here that know EVERYTHING about TDMs of EVERY model, and a more genuine and helpful bunch you'll struggle to meet......so enjoy.

Hang on.......you must be about a 34" inch waist...............(see what I did there)!!

Still having trouble trying to upload some photos. I,ve sorted my profile pic but wanted to upload into the members gallery. Once I,ve selected the category and then click the upload button, it keeps reverting to the select category page. Do you need to be a carpe paid up subscriber to be able to upload photos??? Any help appreciated.

Yeah, some members were using the gallery as a dumping ground so we made it accessible to sportin' members only.  As a non-sportin' member, you can link from photofucket, or similar, direct into posts though. :)  Or use small pics in yer posts.
