Hello From Yorkshire

Discussion in 'Newbies Hangout' started by Kempy1978, Aug 4, 2014.

  1. Well Gents, after a few years away from Italy, im back on a beauty - and loving my first weekend breaking her in gently (ish)... Im a 35 year old happy chappy living near Leeds, and have been riding since I was 16, worked in the trade for a few years too.

    Proud owner of a new Multistrada Touring, bought from Manchester Ducati - and i have to say they are a top bunch of blokes, cheers Sergio!..

    382 miles done on her, being good and sticking to 6k revs - loving the riding position and power of the twin, and cant wait till 8th September when I disappear to France, Mont Blanc, Monaco, Belgium on tour...

    So hi from me.. will be keen on a ride out/ducati meet etc..

    hello & welcome from rastrick.
     
  8. Greetings - from one Yorkshire born.....

    so you were on the Yamaha TZR125, from age 14...?
     
  9. that was the plate/age of the bike.. not the rider..

    :p
     
  10. and you stick to that story!!!
     
  11. Hi and welcome:)
     
  12. Every number plate was the 4 digit numbers of the year the bike was manufactured? And your TZR was 1992 years old? I must say, even more confusing? Nothing seems to stack with your statement...
    ...from proper Yorkshire ;)
     
  13. not sure im keeping up with the confusion... my first bike was a "K" reg TZR125 which i got not long after turning 17.. pretty sure that was a 1992 year of manufacture? The rest followed on all the way to now, with a 2014 "14" plate Multi?
    Think it makes pretty simple reading, and wasn't there to confuse?
     
  14. Read slowly your comment above:

    So reading it literally your number plate was '1992' and the bikes age: 1992 years old.

    No confusion, just playing with your ambiguity, but really, you being from Yorkshire I thought I wouldn't need to explain ;)
     
  15. i gotcha.. :)
