Hi from the new guy

[TommyM]

Hi everyone,

I got my MT09 about 2 weeks ago and i'm trying to burn through those 600 miles as quick as possible so i can let it off the leash! So far i'm loving it, its great to be on a bike designed from the ground up as a road bike rather than a race bike with high bars.

A little about me, i've been riding for about 12 years ( signed up on my 16th birthday ). I ride all year round and only actually took a car test a couple of years ago, and still hate driving. My last couple of bikes were Street Triple R's fantastic bikes but very stiffly sprung and after one was stolen i needed a change.

I'm currently training to be a bike instructor in Farnborough ( 1st gear if any of you know the guys ).

Im new to Yamaha's and so far its a cracking bike!

Glad to be here
Tom

He is still running it in mate so I didn't take over 5000rpm, I think it will be good fun and add something different to the show
