for the civic, off to collect the new owner in half an hour from the train station, shes in her prime  but time for new things....off to see a car tonight, new base, new scene 
so bye bye civic, lots of fun has been had aswell as lots of ££ and my own time. 195bhp and 135lb-ft was never too shabby
oh and just so i dont miss high revving motors....
who needs 9k 
will be doing my test shortly

Shame mate, always liked this. Moving on to new and 'hopefully' better things is never a bad thing though.

You will get sick of riding a bike day to day And winter is not fun on a sportsbike!
Enjoy it though, I took mine out for a blast for the first time in weeks, puts a smile on your face everytime Have you ridden it yet?

Yep
Then again when you come onto the motorway and accelerate to immense speeds it's worth it

Yep that sounds about right
First time I rode my bike on the test ride I thought I was going to take off, now it's just normal, you might not think it now but you will be wanting more speed soon enough

oh yeah as with anything, the civic was getting that way, other people would be amazed with how nippy it was, for me its just normal now.... which is why my new car has to have a little bit more

Nice bike, I had a silver / black J1 YEEEEEEARS ago, rusted pretty quickly though and it's quite a heavy bike. Should be good fun as your first bike.... plenty fast enough I'd imagine.
Good luck with it,
