Born 06/08/1985 I got my first taste of motorbikes while young. My Mum's boyfriend at the time had one and so I often got to go on the back to and from various destinations. My Mum then got into bikes. I remember her having a Magna which was the main bike I grew up around. I can't remember all the bikes she and her boyfriend at the time had, and I am too lazy to ask and update this page. Currently she is riding a Suzuki Intruder 800 and her current boyfriend recently passed his test and now has a VFR750.

Anyway, I managed to hold on till I was 17 and old enough to get my own. I found a Hyosung GF125 that I bought and learned on that. I did my CBT on that and got myself on the road. About 7 months later I did my test on it and got myself a VFR400 nc30. What an awesome bike that was. I loved it to bits until my mate Parkey (Daniel Parkhouse) T-boned me off a roundabout. The front end was destroyed. Fortunately my cousin had the same bike, just without a running engine, so I bought that off him for about £150. Not the nicest looking bike around, It went from the nice black and silver paint scheme, to a black and silver scratched rear end, and an orange front end mainly held together with duck tape.


Around July 2004 I decide it is time for a new bike, and I mean NEW. Looked around at my options, costs etc, and ended up buying a Suzuki GSXR750 K4 - first registered owner with 3 miles on the clock. An awesome bike with a lot of power, and that was before I had run it in. I ran it in and had its first service in a week.
I got it tested to see what it was 'pushing out'. An impressive 130bhp at the back wheel, not bad for a standard 750. Not content with this, I did a bit of tinkering (power commander, retard eliminator blue flame exhaust etc)and got it 'pushing out' an even more impressive 144bhp at the back wheel! I then changed my gearing to take the top speed (173mph) down and increase my acceleration. I took out almost a whole gear ratio. The front wheel was almost impossible to keep down in first gear. In second it would wheelie off the throttle from 70mph straight up.
