Even my wife liked it and she hates bikes :razz:
That is a compliment :grin: thank you :cool:

I am originaly from the UK and am visiting relations, just happened that the show was on,

I did not plan it that way honest :smt083 thats what i told her indoors.

I tried to catch up with you for a chat but no luck, I think i saw you with a seat unit under your arm in the cafe,

Anyway mate hope to catch up with you sometime in the future as i fly back to OZ on Thursday and seeing your bike has given me extra incentive and ideas to complete my RZ project

Cheers

Andy

Hi Vin,

It's a pity, this year again came from France but I didn't meet you :???: I asked for you on the stand sunday unfortunately you were not there.
Maybe in 2012 ?? :cool:
Anyway, I confirm your RZ in simply fantastic. During the 2 days, each time I crossed the hall...I made a stop to apreciate the details.

When I see the state of my V4, I have a looooooooooooooong way to arrive at least 25% of yours :twisted:

Ciao
Francis
Best Regards :smt006
